Uncapped Banners
by supershort
Uncapped Banners lifts the layer limit on banners, so a banner can carry more pattern layers than vanilla allows.
What it does
Vanilla banners stop at 6 pattern layers, and the mod removes that cap so crafters can stack more layers on a single banner. Only the server needs the mod installed; players join without installing anything. Files are published for Fabric only, across five release versions: 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3, with 1.0.3 for 26.3 as the latest file. The code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
No layer cap
Banners are no longer limited to 6 pattern layers, so the number of layers depends on the crafting done.
Longer banner designs
Crafters can keep adding pattern layers to one banner, which allows more detailed designs on flags and shields.
Banner crafting
Each added layer uses the usual banner crafting recipe, so the change affects only how many layers a banner can hold.
Compatibility

More banner layers is a Fabric mod for 1.18 – 1.19.3 that needs both client and server, under the MIT License.

BannerRetrieval is server-side only, open source under the Apache License 2.0 and covers 1.20.4 – 26.1.2.

What the author says
The mod must be put on both the server and client for it to work. There was no mod for banner limit increasing so i made one, if something breaks or contact me on discord: supershort I belive the mod should work with most banner mod that dont try to change the layer limit/influence the layer system.
