F_Hats Mod: Wear Your Favorite Blocks as Stylish Hats in Minecraft
If you have ever wanted to strut around your Minecraft server with a literal TNT block on your head or show off a glowing redstone lamp as the ultimate fashion statement, the F_Hats mod turns that quirky dream into reality. This lightweight but feature-rich plugin lets players equip almost any iconic block as a wearable hat, adding a layer of fun, customization, and economy to multiplayer worlds. Whether you run a minigame hub, a survival server, or a creative lobby, F_Hats injects personality into every player interaction.
What is the F_Hats Mod?
F_Hats is a server-side plugin designed for Minecraft versions 1.7 and above. It gives players access to a dedicated hat menu where they can choose from dozens of block-based headpieces, each with its own permission node. The plugin is built with minigame servers and lobbies in mind, but it fits seamlessly into any gamemode. You can edit all messages through a configuration file, set up a hat shop with in-game currency, and control exactly who can wear which hat using granular permissions. It depends on Vault for economy integration, so you will need that installed as well.

How to Install and Use F_Hats
Setting up F_Hats on your server is quick. First, make sure you have Vault installed and a compatible economy plugin like EssentialsX or CMI. Then drop the F_Hats jar file into your server’s plugins folder and restart. The plugin will generate a config file where you can adjust messages, shop prices, and default permissions. After that, players can type /hats to start wearing their favorite blocks. If you prefer a more streamlined modding experience, the foxygame.net launcher lets you download and manage plugins like F_Hats directly from its integrated menu, saving you the trouble of manual file transfers and dependency checks.
Hat Shop and Economy
The built-in shop adds a progression element that works beautifully on survival and minigame servers. By default, hats have configurable prices, and players purchase them with the server’s currency. You can set some hats to be free while others cost thousands of in-game dollars, encouraging players to grind or participate in events. The shop GUI is clean and intuitive, showing only hats the player can afford or has permission to buy.
Configuration and Customization
One of the standout aspects of F_Hats is its deep configurability. Inside the config.yml file, you can rewrite every message the plugin sends — from the hat selection title to the “purchase successful” notification. This makes it easy to localize the plugin into any language or match your server’s unique tone. You can also disable specific hats entirely, change the default hat menu layout, and adjust cooldowns if you want to prevent spam.
Conclusion
F_Hats transforms ordinary Minecraft blocks into expressive headwear, giving players a fun new way to stand out in lobbies, minigames, and survival worlds. With its simple commands, granular permissions, and a full-fledged economy shop, it is a versatile addition to any server looking to boost player engagement. The ability to customize every message and control access per hat makes it suitable for both small communities and large networks. If you are ready to let your players wear a cactus, a beacon, or even a block of TNT on their heads, F_Hats is the plugin you need.
