Icarus Mod FAQ

Check the crafting recipes in your crafting table or recipe book—each wing type has its own recipe using different materials. Once you have the ingredients, craft the wings and they'll appear in your inventory ready to equip.

Open your inventory and look for the back or cape slot (separate from your chest armor slot). Place your crafted wings there and they'll appear on your character's back.

Flying with wings drains your hunger bar, so you need to bring extra food on long trips. If you're losing hunger too quickly, try removing some heavy armor pieces, as heavier armor increases the hunger drain rate.

Remove heavy armor pieces from your body—the mod slows your max flying speed based on how much armor you're wearing. Keeping only essential armor or none at all will let you reach your top flight speed.

Yes, you can use a data pack tag to designate specific wing types as hunger-free. Check the mod's data pack documentation to see how to configure which wings should fly without draining hunger.

No, wings equip in a separate back or cape slot, so you can wear your full chest armor at the same time. This means you don't have to choose between protection and flight.

Make sure the wings are equipped in your back slot and that you have hunger to spend. Try pressing jump while airborne to activate flight, and check that you're not in a mode that restricts flight.

Yes, the mod includes settings where you can adjust the armor speed penalty to your preference. Check the mod's configuration options to fine-tune how much different armor pieces affect your flight speed.

Look for wings that match your playstyle in the guide "Flying Efficiently Without Losing Hunger" or "Choosing the Right Wings for Your Playstyle." Different wings have different properties, so pick ones that balance speed and hunger drain for your needs.

You need hunger in your hunger bar to fly, not food items in your inventory. Make sure you eat enough before taking off, and bring extra food to replenish your hunger during long flights.
