About this Mod
Server-side mod to allow players to wear banners on their head!
How to wear a banner?
Simple! Just shift-right click on the ground while holding the banner in your main hand.
Won't it remove my helmet by mistake?
Don't worry! The mod won't take effect if your head slot is occupied. That means your precious helmet is safe! To equip the banner you need to empty your head slot before trying to equip the banner.
Can I have my custom-made banner on me?
Yes! Equiping the banner keeps it data. That means you can equip any banner with any design on it.

Banner Hat server crashes on startup – what to do?

Banner Hat officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.21.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Banner Hat – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Banner Hat consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
