WaveyCapes

The cape shouldn't be a static slab. WaveyCapes mod animates the cape in a more fluent way, adding physics and rendering it in one bent part instead of small cubes. You can change between rendering styles, cape behavior, and wind effects in the config screen accessible via the mod-list (requires Mod Menu on fabric).

Since this mod is purely visual and fully clientside, it doesn't have to be installed on servers and works everywhere.

Update 1.3.0

• Added a new "Simulation V2" mode (new default setting), which allows the cape to move left and right slightly, prevents too-hard bends/cape clipping into itself, and entirely new underwater physics and behavior.
• Fixed a lot of edge cases, where the cape would become oddly thin, tilted, or inverted.
• Using the Wind Mode "Waves" will now slow down while underwater.
