- $5.00 USD or more contributed total

If you do not want to share your Supporter tier, you can choose which tag to show publicly in the Supporter Customization screen, or by running /supporter tier <1-3>
. You can revert back to any previous tier for the tag on your username, e.g. if you are a Tier 3 supporter you can show a Tier 1 tag by running /supporter tier 1
. You can revert this at any time by running /supporter tier auto
. Alternatively, if you don't want to show a tag at all, you may opt out.
Opt out
You may opt out of publicly showing your Supporter status in the Supporter Customization screen by choosing "Hide" for "Shown tier", or by running /supporter opt out
. This will hide the Supporter tag from your name. You will still need to manually un-link your Discord and Forums accounts if they have been linked. You may opt back in at any time by running /supporter opt in
.

Supporter Customizations will be visible to other players for as long as your Supporter tags last, unless:

If you do not currently have Supporter status, you can still access the screen to view your customizations, but you will not be able to make any changes until you purchase Supporter again. If you have items in the "Custom Hat" or "Custom Elytra" slots, you will be able to remove them, but not put them back.
Custom Hats
Custom Hats are a special slot which allows you to wear almost any block or item as a hat, including 3D prints and posters, with the ability to change the position, rotation, and scale of the hat. You can also use the /hat
command to swap in your currently held item as a hat. Run /supporter hat
to customize.
If you had a custom hat that was not a valid armor item before April 10th, 2024, it will be automatically moved to the "Custom Hats" tab in the Supporter Customization screen when you next log in, even if you're not currently a Supporter.
If you're not currently a Supporter, you can still access the screen to remove the item, but you will no be able to put it back until you purchase Supporter again.
Tips
- Hat items are rendered the same way as they are in the inventory. If it has a model in the inventory, it will have a model on your head. Posters are handled specially, to appear as a flat plane (visible from both sides) in front of your face by default.
- You can toggle the rendering of your helmet by checking "Show helmet with hat" in the bottom left. This allows you to still wear armor, but have your hat render instead. The armor will still provide protection.
- You can hold Shift when dragging the sliders to snap them to sensible values (1/8th of a block for positions and scales, 15° for rotations), and use the arrow keys to change them precisely.
- Click and drag to rotate the preview window, and scroll to zoom.
Custom Elytras
Custom Elytras allow you to use a poster from sc-peripherals to change the texture of your Elytra. It works for both vanilla Elytras and sc-goodies colored/special Elytras. Run /supporter elytra
to customize.
- Symmetric UVs - This is the default mode. The model and UV map used is the same as the vanilla Elytra, where there is only one wing texture, mirrored to both sides.
- Asymmetric UVs - This mode allows you to use a different texture for each wing. The left wing adds an additional cuboid to the UV map, and moves the right wing's UVs to the right slightly to make room for it. This mode is not compatible with textures for vanilla Elytras, e.g. from other resource packs. The right wing texture is flipped horizontally.
You can download the templates for both modes in a variety of formats on the Custom Elytra screen, or from here:
- Layered (Aseprite) - Contains both an example Elytra and the UV map.
- Layered (Paint.NET) - Contains both an example Elytra and the UV map.
- Layered (GIMP) - Contains both an example Elytra and the UV map.
- UV Map (PNG) - Contains only the UV map.
- Example (PNG) - Contains only the example Elytra.
Tips
- Click and drag to rotate the preview window, and scroll to zoom.
- Hover over the poster preview to fade out the UV template.
- Although the vanilla Elytra texture is 64x32, posters are 128x128, so textures must be scaled up to this size to fit. This also means you get 2x extra detail horizontally, and 4x extra detail vertically.
Step Sounds
Step Sounds allow you to override your step sounds to the sounds of many other blocks. Run /supporter stepsounds
to customize.
