LeiCraftClient is a free Minecraft Java Edition mod that shows capes and 3D cosmetics on players. You pick your look on the website, and everyone who plays with the mod sees it, on any server.
What you get
- Capes: a custom cape on your player, which works with the normal cape and elytra behaviour of the game.
- 3D cosmetics: 3D models on your head, body, arms or legs, up to 10 at a time.
- A wardrobe: choose your cape and cosmetics on the website at /dashboard/wardrobe or right in the game, with a live 3D preview.
- A tab-list badge: players who used LeiCraftClient in the last 30 days get the LeiCraft mark before their name in the tab list.
- Discord Rich Presence: the Discord desktop app shows what you are playing, with buttons to your profile and to the download.
How it works
LeiCraftClient has three parts that work together:
| Part | What it does |
|---|---|
| The mod | A client-side Fabric mod (in-game name LeiCraftClient). It asks the API which cape and cosmetics each player around you wears, and draws them. |
| The website | client.leicraftmc.de. You log in with Discord, browse the shop, fill your wardrobe and link your Minecraft accounts. Creators publish their own capes and cosmetics here. |
| The API | Connects the two. It stores who wears what and sends it to every player with the mod. |
What this means for you:
- Everyone with the mod sees everyone's items. If you and your friend both use LeiCraftClient, you see each other's capes and cosmetics.
- It works on any server and in singleplayer. The mod draws everything on your side.
- Servers install nothing. No plugin, no server mod, no resource pack.
- Players without the mod see vanilla. They see your normal skin and no LeiCraft cape. Your items still show up for everyone who has the mod.
What is free
Everything you need is free:
- The mod and the website.
- Your account. A LeiCraftClient account is your Discord account, so there is no password to create.
- Every item in the shop, unless it is marked Exclusive. Exclusive items are not sold either: you get them with a redeem code or as a direct gift from the page that made them. See Exclusive items.
- Your own community page in the Creator Studio, if you want to make capes and cosmetics for others. See For creators.
There is nothing to buy. The website has no payments anywhere.
Works next to other mods and clients
LeiCraftClient is a mod, not a launcher. It runs in a normal Fabric setup next to your other mods.
Many players use a client like Lunar Client, LabyMod or Dawn. Whether LeiCraftClient works inside one of them depends on whether that client can load Fabric mods. The client compatibility overview lists what works where. If you also use another cape or cosmetic mod, see Other cape mods.
Open source
LeiCraftClient is open source under the AGPL-3.0 licence. The Fabric mod, the API server, the website and the 3D skin viewer are all public:
