Common questions

 * How do I install the mod?
 * Upon downloading the jar, drop it into your mods folder
 * I download the mod, but instead of a jar file, I got a file called $ What do I do?
 * If you downloaded the mod from the wiki, and obtained a file called $, simply rename it to AoA.jar and it should work.
 * My weapons from other mods that do over 25 damage are only doing 25 damage. How do I fix this?
 * Go to Advent of Ascension's config file and set the  value to 0.
 * Is there a way to disable the skills?
 * There is no way to disable the skills.
 * Is there a command to level up skills?
 * There is no command for leveling up skills and likely won't be one. To level up skills manually, you will have to use an NBT editor.
 * How do I spawn mobs from the mod?
 * Mobs from the mod can be spawned with the /summon command, by typing . Replace MobName with the name of the mob you want to summon.
 * I'm on a Mac and I don't have an insert key. How to turn off the noticeboard?
 * You can change the key to disable the noticeboard by pausing the game, pressing Options, pressing Controls, then changing the key to whatever the player wants.
 * In the chat it says "You need to warm up!". What is this, and what can I do about?
 * That is an old mechanic removed from the mod long ago. To fix it, you should go to this page and download the latest version of the mod.

Known mod incompatibility issues
Some mods have issues when installed alongside Advent of Ascension:
 * Mods that add dual-wielding, such as Mine & Blade: Battlegear 2, are known to crash the game and corrupt the world if the player is attacked by a quickpocket mob while dual-wielding. If the player wishes to have Advent of Ascension alongside these mods, be careful to not dual-wield while fighting quickpockets. The mod should work fine together otherwise.
 * Note: It is currently unknown if the silencer produces a similar crash with the latest version. Be careful when around the silencer to avoid potential world corruption.
 * Some of the mod's screen effects can become glitched if the player has ArcanaRPG installed.

Other things you should know about Advent of Ascension

 * The Looting enchantment does not work on mob drops.
 * Mob drops in the mod are unaffected by the Looting enchantment.
 * Advent of Ascension does not add any biomes to the overworld.
 * If you see one of Advent of Ascension's dimensions' biomes in the overworld, this is what is known as a biome ID conflict. To fix it, you will have to go into the config file for the mod, and change the biome id to something that is not used.
