Make your first set

A set is a group of matching gear — a helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots that look like they belong together. A set can hold as many pieces as you like.

1. Click New Set

The two buttons at the top of the sets screen, numbered
Top-right of the sets screen.
  1. Import .nxe — loads a set someone sent you. Not this time.
  2. New Set — this one.

2. Fill in two boxes

The New equipment set dialog with its fields numbered
Naming a new set.
  1. Set name — whatever you want to call it. Tidecaller, Forest Warden, Dragon Plate. This is just for you.
  2. Set ID (namespace) — fills in on its own from the name. Leave it alone unless you have a reason. It keeps this set's files apart from every other set's.
  3. The helper text explaining what the namespace does.
  4. Cancel — back out.
  5. Create set — greyed out until you type a name.
Pick the name you want now. You can edit the set's other details later, but the set name itself is fixed once you create it.

Your set now appears as a card on the sets screen:

A set card. Click it to open the set.
  1. Live previews of the pieces inside, spinning slowly.
  2. Set name.
  3. How many pieces it holds.
  4. Delete set — the trash icon. This one does ask before deleting.
  5. Namespace — the folder name you chose.

3. You're on the set's own screen

The set overview header with its controls numbered
The set header.
  1. Namespace — the set's folder name. Read-only.
  2. Pieces — how many pieces it has.
  3. Edit details — author, version, website, description, and the logo used as the set's icon in the in-game menu.
  4. Delete Set — removes the whole set. It asks first.

4. Add a piece

The dashed Add piece tile
Click the dashed tile.
  1. Add piece — the dashed tile at the end of the piece list.
The Add piece dialog with all eight slot cards numbered
Choosing which piece of gear to make.
  1. Helmet
  2. Chestplate
  3. Leggings
  4. Boots
  5. Elytra
  6. Wolf armor
  7. Horse armor
  8. Harness — for happy ghasts. Needs Minecraft 1.21.6+.
  9. Piece name — pre-filled with the slot name, which is usually fine.

Pick a slot, then press Add piece. Each card tells you what that slot covers — there's more detail in The eight slots.

5. Open it and start painting

A piece card with its parts numbered
A piece card. Click anywhere on it to open the painter.
  1. Live 3D preview — spins slowly, and updates as you paint.
  2. Canvas size of this piece's texture sheet.
  3. Slot it's worn in.
  4. Piece name.
  5. Remove piece — the trash icon.
Removing a piece is instant. That trash icon deletes it straight away with no “are you sure?”. Deleting a whole set does ask first.

Click the card and the painter opens.
