How to make a mannequin in minecraft

The only way to create a mannequin in Minecraft is to use commands. Other functions associated with this new object are also available exclusively through commands.

How to call a mannequin?

In order to spawn a mannequin, players need to make sure that cheats are enabled in the world. In the old world, you can pause the game, go to LAN settings, allow the use of commands and start the LAN world. In the new world, commands can be allowed right on the world creation page. Once the commands are activated, the following command can be entered to spawn a mannequin right where the player is:

/summon minecraft:mannequin

Once the mannequin has spawned, players will notice that it has Steve’s skin by default. If they want Alex’s skin, they can add a special texture code to the main command:

/summon minecraft:mannequin ~ ~ ~ {profile: {texture: "entity/player/slim/koi"}}

Mannequins can look like any player in the world if the correct username is specified in the command (Image: Sportskeeda Gaming || Mojang Studios). Moreover, gamers can change the mannequin’s skin to that of a specific player if their username is known. For example, a mannequin can be summoned with the appearance of popular Minecraft content makers such as GeronForever and others. Example command:

/summon minecraft:mannequin ~ ~ ~ {profile: GeronForever}

Other attributes and capabilities of mannequins

In addition to summoning a mannequin with a standard or custom skin, you can change various parameters – scale, armor, texture of the mob, etc. When a mannequin appears, its default name will be “Mannequin NPC”. Here is a command to create a creature with a custom name:

/summon minecraft:mannequin ~ ~ ~ {CustomName:"Udisen"}

However, it is worth noting that the NPC tag cannot be removed from mannequins.

If players want to summon a mannequin with an item in hand, a more complex command will be required that will specify which item to equip, its quantity, and in which hand. For example, to make a mannequin hold a copper sword, use the command:

/summon minecraft:mannequin ~ ~ ~ {equipment:{mainhand:{id:"minecraft:diamond_sword",count:1}}}

You can change attributes by hovering over the mannequin and entering the /attributes command in the chat. After that, a long custom tag will appear that will indicate this particular mannequin. By selecting this tag, you can change any attribute you are interested in.

For example, to increase the mannequin, enter the command:

/attribute {custom entity tag} minecraft:scale base set 20

How to combine multiple properties:

In the command, inside the curly brackets, specify multiple properties separated by commas. For example, this command gives a mannequin with the player’s skin, his name and a netherite sword:

/summon minecraft:mannequin ~ ~ ~ {profile: GeronForever,CustomName:"Udisen.com",equipment:{mainhand:{id:"minecraft:netherite_sword",count:1}}}
