Elytra does not reflect cape when cape is hidden

it seems like it should be a feature that even when capes are hidden, their unique elytra skins and models persist… otherwise you just wouldn’t equip a cape in the launcher, right?

this feels like a bug to me, so yeah. if i equip a cape but hide it in skin settings in-game, my elytra should still reflect the cape i equipped?

This is most likely intentional. The cape modifies the texture of the elytra, and if the cape is disabled, then the elytra texture should also be vanilla aswell.

@Polokalap really? if so that’s so weird to me… it feels like we should be able to hide cape but keep the elytra design it gives

That's not true the design is not supposed to be on the elytra when you have not equipped the cape in the launcher or website. This is not a glitch and is an intended feature.

@MM no im saying YES EQUIPPED in launcher or site, but HIDDEN in game in skin customisation for capes

it’s not exactly a bug; it seems to have been done intentionally, so your bug report should probably be a suggestion instead
