MassiveHat3 Renewed

Continuation of the Minecraft Server Plugin that provides Block Hat functionality
What is MassiveHat3 Renewed?

MassiveHat3 Renewed is a Minecraft plugin written in Java for Spigot/Paper servers. It is a continuation of the plugin MassiveHat2 by MassiveCraft (the original creators of MassiveCore, Factions, and related plugins for Minecraft). This version has been updated to support Minecraft 1.21.4 and above.

MassiveHat is a block hat plugin that adds the ability for players to use any block or item as a hat, as if it were a helmet. It allows equipping the block directly in the helmet slot in the player's inventory.
