How hats
by catman968
How hats lets a player wear decorative hats from a fancy GUI, with a set of nine hats modeled in Blockbench and built in MCreator.
What it does
Players equip a hat by right-clicking it while holding it, and a hat that is dropped on the ground is picked back up the same way. Wearing a helmet does not stop a hat from being put on, so the two can be swapped between at will. The hats are crafted and shown to friends through a dedicated screen, and the mod comes with nine of them on its Forge build for 1.19.2.
The mod is client and server, so a server and each player need it to see the hats worn by others. It has a block still in progress, a blue lobster mug, which is not yet working. Known compatibility issues exist with other mods, and the author has listed them only partly. The author states that the mod is on hiatus and may be reworked, discontinued or ported to Fabric in a later update, while the current file is labeled beta.
The mod is published for Forge on 1.19.2 only, with version 1.0.0 dated 2024-07-09 on the beta channel. It is all rights reserved and not open source. An example video of the hats is on the author's page, and the team has said more hats and a rarity system may be added in later updates.
