FAQ

Here are some **questions** that are frequently **asked** by the **community**. If you still have **questions** that **aren't answered** in this section, join the Official **Lyøn Mods** Discord Server, get the **Wings of Freedom** role and ask your questions in **#questions**. A staff member or a community "veteran" will answer you, usually, **within a couple hours**.

### **1) How does the mod work?**

This **Wiki** is here to **help you**. Though some things might still be **unclear** or **unanswered**, wich is why you can watch the **Official Wings of Freedom Tutorial** at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOQZR30lhNk

### **2) Does the mod feature titans and / or titan-shifting?**

The mod currently does **not feature titans nor titan-shifting** **YET**. If you want something that can feel **somewhat like actual titans** you can either **spawn** the already existing **models** using the **/summon** command (**AI** currently **not present** | Only valid for 1.12) or use the **Big Bois Mod**, wich allows **in-game Giants** to **spawn** naturally, giving them an **AI** **similar to** the one **zombies** have (Pro Tip: Giants deal **A LOT of damage**, so be catious)

### **3) How will titan-shifting work?**

The **details** are still **to be decided**, but the **developers** are **sure** that it will be **similar to the anime**, with the **Yellow Thunderbolt**, **Special Abilities** (Like Hardening, Coordinate, Creating Objects out of Titanic Material, Shifting Explosion, to name a few), **Curse of Ymir** etc.

### **4) How long until the next update / any other update?**

The **Big Update** is finally out! The next major update will come **some time** during the following weeks.

### **5) Is Season 4 stuff coming?**

**Season 4** stuff is **planned**, but it will **not** be in the mod **any time soon**. **Patience** is key and remember that the developers are **university students**.

### **6) Will you add bloodline system?**

**Maybe, maybe not**. It's still **too soon to tell**. There are some **basic ideas**, but deepened **brain-storming hasn't been done yet**. If you have any **ideas** to suggest head to the **#make-suggestions-here** channel in the **Discord Server**.

### **7) What will be in this mod?**

The plan is to add **everything from the anime** (**except** for some things that are **undoable** / **really really hard** to get to work properly). Some **Before the Fall** stuff is planned as well.

### **8) What will be in the next update?**

In the Discord server there's the **#to-do** channel wich is **all about this**. Stuff flagged as **"Next Update"** or something along those lines will **be** in the **next update**. If a feature has a **line** over it means it's ready and working, and that it is probably being tested by **Patrons** and the **staff**.

### **9) How do I install the mod?**

Here's a step-by-step guide on the installation process:

1. **Download** the Latest Version of **Forge** for 1.12.2 /1.16.5 (depending on wich version you want to play)
2. **Open the file** you just downloaded and click **Install** (**Run the vanilla version** at least once beforehand)
3. Type **%appdata%** in the Windows Search Bar, press **Enter**, go to **.minecraft** and create a folder named **mods**
4. **Download** the mod on **Curseforge**
	1. If you are installing any 1.16.5 version remember to install the latest **LyønHeart** version as well)
5. Put the **file(s)** in the **mods** folder (on some versions you can also create sub-folders for each version, but they don't work for everyone)
6. **Open** the Minecraft **Launcher**
7. If Forge hasn't already, **create a version** using the Forge client you installed (You'll find either right **after the vanilla** version or at the **bottom of the list**)
8. **Open** Minecraft with **Forge**
9. Enjoy.

### **10) Can you add something like players (human form) being able to break bones, loose limbs etc.?**

There is a mod, **First Aid**, that is all about that, and does it pretty damn good.

### **11) Can I become developer / texturer / modeller / work directly at the mod?**

Short answer is **no**. Long answer however is a little different: **Lyøn** and **DarkestKnight\_\_** have said many times that they want to be the **only ones** to **work** to the **mod directly** for many reasons. But there is still a way to **help the mod development**, though not directly. You can either become a **Patron**, wich technically doesn't actually help the development but even **a dollar** is enough to keep the **moral high** since, even if they wanted to, the developers can't be paid for this mod since AoT stuff is covered by **copyright** (Though Patreon money can also go in stuff like a website or an SMP). The other option is to become a **moderator** or **supporter**. This role also is divided in **2 sub-roles**:

1. **Wiki supporter**, wich is asigned to those who work on the **Wiki**
2. **Building supporter**, wich is asigned to those who create **buildings** for the mod (e.g. Reiss Chapel)

In order to **become a supporter or moderator** one has either to **wait** until a head supporter in his branch (or DarkestKnight\_\_ or Lyøn for the moderator role) makes a **help form**. If you're considered **idoneous** you **might** get in.

### **12) How do I get Beta / Early Access?**

To answer this question we also have to describe pre-release versions in detail:

* **Alpha:** This version is often **only accessible** to the **developers**, except some **rare cases** where external testing is necessary, but it's extremely rare and is still only granted to very few ones.
* **Beta:** This version is only accessible to **staff members** and **Patrons**, except some **rare exceptions** like the 2022 **New Year Eve release**. This version is usually a stable release to **test** new features (Asking at this few ones to leak it won't earn you anything since it was made so that you won't be able to use it unless you're whitelisted).
* **Early Access:** This version is only accessible to **staff members**, **Patrons** and **Early Acces players** (In order to become an Early Access player you have to either win events or be the most active discord member over a 4 month-span). This version is usually released **a couple weeks before** the official release (Asking at this few ones to leak it won't earn you anything since, again, it was made so that you won't be able to use it unless you're whitelisted).

### **13) What's up with the roles like cadet or scout?**

These roles are given to **Patreon** supporters, based on how much they pay.

### **14) My ODM is not working, what's going on there?**

First step is to check if the gear has **stats**. To do that, hover over the gear in your inventory and hold **Ctrl**. If it has no stats, the gear will **not work**. This issue arises on some servers if you **copy** a gear / take the one from the **creative menu**. This issue also occurs if you don't **create** your gear the way it's intended. It seems to be a general issue in Minecraft / Forge. To our knowledge, there's **nothing** we can do about it.

### **15) Will 1.12.2 receive any new updates?**

No. 1.12.2 is done. The 1.12.2 wiki will also not be updated with the exception of some minor adjustments.
