banana textures
by banana_cat
banana textures is a Fabric decoration mod that lets players swap the textures of elytra and crossbows through commands, with wing and elytra styles to choose from.
What it does
The mod ships custom wing and elytra textures, including fairy, pixie, cloud, owl, moth and a dragon wing recolored to resemble a Light Fury. Players choose between seven elytra types and two crossbow types, and two commands change the Custom Model Data NBT that selects a texture, so the look of an item can be set by command.
Elytra wearing depends on CIT Resewn, which must be installed next to banana textures. The mod runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it and players join without installing it. Files are published for Fabric only, across the six release versions 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.20.3, 1.20.4, 1.20.5 and 1.20.6, and the code is released under the MIT License without being open source.
Key features
Seven elytra styles
Fairy, pixie, cloud, owl, moth, dragon and flower wisteria wing textures can be chosen for the elytra.
Two crossbow styles
The crossbow has two alternative textures, selected with the same command system as the elytra.
Texture commands
Two commands write the Custom Model Data NBT on an item, which determines which texture the game displays.
Light Fury dragon wings
One dragon wing texture is recolored to resemble the Light Fury, so the wings differ from the standard dragon style.

Use cases
Changing a look without new items

Who it’s for: Players who want distinct elytra and crossbow appearances on a client, including those who use a resource pack setup that already relies on CIT Resewn.
