Icarus Re Winged FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Do I need the original Icarus mod to use this addon?
Yes, you must install the base Icarus mod first—Icarus Re Winged is an addon that requires it to function. Without the main mod, the wings won't work or appear in your game.
What materials do I need to craft wings?
You'll use common survival items available in your world, though the exact ingredients vary by wing type. Check your crafting table or the mod's crafting guide to see what each wing style requires.
How do I equip wings after crafting them?
Place the crafted wings into your chestplate slot or back slot, depending on your mod setup. Once equipped, you can activate flight by pressing Jump while falling through the air.
Can I switch between different wing styles mid-game?
Yes, you can craft multiple wing types and swap between them by unequipping one set and equipping another in your inventory. This lets you change your look without restarting.
Do the animated wings affect my flying speed or control?
No, the custom wing skins are purely visual—they don't change how the flight mechanics work. Your speed, control, and stamina remain the same as the base Icarus mod.
Why aren't my wings showing up or animating?
Make sure the base Icarus mod is installed and loaded before this addon, and verify the wings are equipped in the correct slot. If animations still don't play, check that your graphics settings aren't disabling animated textures.
Can I use these wings in multiplayer servers?
Yes, as long as the server has both Icarus and this addon installed, you can use the wings in multiplayer. Other players will see your custom wing skins if they also have the mod.
Do feathered, membrane, and butterfly wings have different flight abilities?
No, all three wing styles function identically—the differences are purely cosmetic. Choose whichever design matches your character's aesthetic.
Will this mod work with other flight or armor mods?
Compatibility depends on how other mods interact with the chestplate and flight systems. Test it in your world first, and check community forums if you experience conflicts with specific mods.
How do I know when my wings are about to run out of flight time?
The base Icarus mod typically shows a durability or stamina indicator—check your HUD or inventory to see your wings' current status before they stop working.
