|This cape was given to some proofreaders<ref>"[https://crowdin.com/project/minecraft/discussions/1904 Basically you need to provide a stable, high-quality support for your language project. For a few years at least. Then you ''may'' become a proofreader. And then you ''may'' get a cape if you are a good proofreader."]</ref> (experienced translators with moderation permissions for their language) on the [[Crowdin|''Minecraft'' translation project in Crowdin]].
Originally, these capes were given out on May 16, 2012 using a fair dice roll to 29 contributors,<ref>{{tweet|jeb|202681694132772864|29 translators have now received a Minecraft cape (based on a secret selection formula + they have added their MC name to crowdin)}}</ref><ref>{{tweet|jeb|202682214692032512|@adiacente Decided by a fair dice roll!}}</ref> with plans to give more capes from time to time.<ref>{{reddit|tpqpc/this_is_the_cape_29_lucky_people_got_today|c4ot3ox|Your profile was included in my selection, but you must've added your Minecraft name after I ran the parsing program. I will obviously update the translator list as time goes on, but it's surrounded with a lot of manual labor, so I'll probably not do it very often. However, adding a note to my calendar to fix yours specifically, on Friday.|jeb_}}</ref> [[Jens Bergensten|Jeb]] later said that he canceled those plans after seeing abusive behavior from some translators, such as using auto-translation and down-voting legitimate translations.<ref>{{reddit|1t1l70/translators_cape_only_29_in_the_world_of|ce3py4b|Seriously, this is why I stopped handing out translator capes {{=}}( The idea was to give something cool back to the ones who helped out, but the result was a bunch of "me too:s" that just auto-translated stuff and down-voted real translations.|jeb_}}</ref>

The cape was again used a few years later to reward certain proofreaders for important contribution to the project.

Before the cape's release, text was found in language files that read "And... a special Veteran Cape for each year you've played Java Edition!" Later on, images were found on the support page with similar text. It is unknown why this text existed, as Mojang have made no comment regarding it.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220831194801/https://i.imgur.com/F0Ar6db.png Migration language file (en_US.json) mentioning the words "Veteran Cape"] </ref><ref>[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E4rYGmAX0AQzseN.jpg An image found on the support site including the words "Veteran Cape"]</ref>
