A Minecraft mod that breathes some new wind into the Banner system, adding new patterns, features, and removing limits. Let your creativity fly!

The second showcases red and yellow banners on a desert house. The third showcases blue banners with a yellow shield hanging above a medieval tavern. The last showcases a wide variety of random banners in a medieval textile mill.

Features

New Banner Patterns

Field adds many, many new banner patterns, allowing for even greater customizability. All of them attempt to be in-line with heraldry - the system banner patterns are based off of, so they should fit well with the rest of the banner patterns.

Retextured Banners and Patterns

The banner has been retextured to be a little less noisy and clean. Along with this, many of the vanilla banner patterns have also been retextured, smoothing them out. There should hopefully be little difference to your existing designs.

Renamed Banner Patterns

Some of the vanilla banner patterns didn't fit into the naming scheme of heraldry (read above), so they have been updated to fit in. None of the designs have been significantly changed, only the names.

More Banner Layers

Having a limit of only 6 banner layers is both arbitrary and incredibly limiting. Now, there's a default limit of 32 layers, which is configurable.

To avoid having a mile-long tooltip, the tooltip will only display, by default, the most recent 8 layers, with the rest being trimmed. The limit for this is also configurable.

Hanging Banners

Banners can now be placed on either the bottom of a block or the side of a block, similar to hanging signs. They can also connect with hanging signs, allowing for creative decorations.

Wearable Banners

Even in vanilla, banners have functionality for rendering on the player's head. Now, banners are able to simply be placed into your helmet slot.

Stackable Banners

As a simple quality of life change, banners now have a default stack size of 64. Once again, this is configurable.

Loom Tooltips

When hovering over a banner pattern in the loom, there is now a tooltip, containing the name and ID of the pattern. This can be disabled in the config in order to restore the vanilla behavior.

Updated Banner Tooltip

Banners, rather than the tooltip being an unlabeled list of banner patterns, now has a tooltip more in-line with the modern style of tooltip. The list now is titled "Patterns", and indented, similar to the tooltip of Smithing Templates.

As a bonus, this fixes MC-217525.

Notice

Banner Pattern tooltips have also been changed to have more simplified translations. Since this changes the translation key, this will break a lot of other custom banner patterns' translations. Reach out on the Discord to request custom translations be added for a datapack/mod!
