The Avatar Mod is a multiplayer-focused combat mod for Minecraft PC which will add all types of Bending from Avatar: The Last Airbender. The aim is to create fast-paced, team-based engagements with plenty of team tactics and RPG skills.
This mod is currently in Alpha and under active development. While many of the planned features have not been implemented yet, the mod still provides an exciting bending experience as an alternative to traditional methods of warfare.
If you want to stay up to date with development, we heavily recommend you join our discord!
Existing Features
The project already includes the 4 major types of bending (Water, Earth, Fire, Air), 4 sub-elements (Ice, Sand, Lightning, Combustion), along with 32+ varied abilities for you to try out. There are also configuration files and admin commands for full control over your experience.
FAQ
Could you add X?
Eventually, everything from the Avatar TV shows shall be added. Please do not suggest things like bloodbending, spiritual projection or the avatar state, as these are all planned! If you have specific ideas on how these should be implemented, feel free to join our Discord server and inform us of your ideas.
In case you want to suggest something non-canon, feel free to do so, but know that the chance of us adding it is very low.
Bending isn't working!!
Try reading the getting started guide.
How do I get scrolls?
Either get them in creative OR kill mobs and loot structures.

IT CRASHED WHAT SHOULD I DO
First of all, if you are using a hacked/cracked client, please note that these are not supported. Using an illegal account will often cause issues. To resolve this buy an account like most of us did.
However, if you aren't using a fake username, please post your forge version, mod version, crash report, list of mods, and java version.
Can I make a video, etc of this mod?
You do realize, we want you to review our mod :p
Just make sure that you properly attribute us and give a link to our website or this page.
Can you support Minecraft 1.7.10?
No, unfortunately the code is changed so much between then and now that it would take too much time to manage 2 different MC versions. Minecraft 1.7.10 was released over 4 years ago! It's time to switch to the latest Minecraft version.
Can you support Minecraft 1.10.2?
See above.
Will add-ons be supported?
In the future, but they are not a priority yet.
What are the permissions for redistribution, etc?
Basically, you can modify or redistribute as long as you credit us as the authors. However, you really should read the legal definitions here. You can make money off the mod, but unless you're using a rewards program like CurseForge's points, it's frowned upon, and we'd really prefer you not to. Additionally, Ad.Fly is also heavily frowned upon, as some of us (FavouriteDragon) hate adfly.
Will servers be able to use/change this mod?
Yes. Also, since this is licensed under GPL, anyone can modify the mod to their needs, as long as they provide copyright and credit the authors, as well as include the original source code.
Can I use this in a modpack?
Yes, but please, ask us first, and provide a link to this page & credit us on your modpack credit/front page.

Hiring
We could always use a helping hand, so if you are a coder, modeller, texture artist or have something else you think could contribute to the mod's development, please join our Discord server and send a message there or a DM to either ArcaneDragon or Mahtaran.
Installation Guide
This mod is currently Minecraft 1.12 only, and requires Forge.
Some previous versions are for 1.11, though, so look at which version of the mod you're downloading.
To install this mod:
1. Install Minecraft Forge if you haven't
- Go to files.minecraftforge.net
- Under Minecraft Versions, click 1.12 (or 1.11, depending on what version of the mod you want to use).
- Choose the appropriate "Download Latest"
- Run the downloaded installer, selecting "Install Client". If there is an error installing Mercurius, try running the installer again.
- Create a profile of Minecraft using the new Forge version
2. Go into your mods folder. If you do not have one, create a folder called "mods" inside your .minecraft folder
3. Download the latest version of Avatar Mod
4. Drag-and-drop the downloaded mod .jar into your mods folder
5. Run Minecraft using the correct Profile
Make sure you're using forge 2838 and at least java 8 181, or it won't work! Do not post crash reports unless you meet those requirements.
HOLD ON!
Did you read the FAQ?
Please read the FAQ before asking a question. It saves us a lot of time which we can, in turn, spend on actually working on the mod.
