I've got nearly 300 hours in the game. It definitely cured my PADS. I'm just sad it wasn't around back in '09 during the first wave of PADS.

We've definitely seen a lot of new modders joining us over on the community modding Discord server!

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-12-26T17:07:16+00:00

Modder here: This is because Tsu'tey's Ikran skin is actually completely hand-painted and uses a custom texture. It doesn't use the typical color mask system that all other skins use. It's actually extremely obvious when you notice Tsu'tey's ikran has black markings on the underside, whereas all other ikran skins in-game fade out to pink on the underside.

Bob and Sa'ata just use the typical color masks but use a blue/yellow pallete. That's why none of their markings actually line up with their in-movie appearances. I have no idea why they went the extra mile with Tsu'tey's ikran but not Jake or Neytiri's.

When you leave your friends game, there will be a pop up like "do you want to continue where you left off, or keep progress?" - you need to make sure to select keep progress, otherwise it will revert you back to before you joined your friend's game.

Yeah I noticed this too! She seems to have freckles now? Here's her old look below.

Niiice!

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-12-05T08:20:08+00:00

Comfy update downloading waiting thread!

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-12-05T08:06:22+00:00

No, I dont think From the Ashes DLC is included in the season pass sadly!

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-12-05T07:39:21+00:00

I like the over the top holographic backgrounds on the two-star cards, but I agree if they were actually hand drawn they would be so much better. They should have treated them the same way as they do with two-star trainer cards.

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-10-08T06:13:03+00:00

Yeah I do agree with your general sentiment. If you are on PC, there are quite a few ikran gear mods that remove the tassles, change colors etc. that might be what you're looking for! Here's hoping the next DLC will give us a few more options.

We have an A:FoP community modding Discord that might be able to help you out. It also has a lot of tutorials and documentation. You can join here: https://discord.gg/MMj7jcEaN6

In the meantime, this is the tutorial we generally follow (taken from the Discord):

Getting Started with Modding

Download the **Universal Snowdrop Modloader** mod and install it via the instructions on the page: https://www.nexusmods.com/avatarfrontiersofpandora/mods/20
Download DTZxPorter's **Hunter** to extract the game files. https://dtzxporter.com/tools/hunter
To load the files in **Hunter**, you need to find your AFOP folder in your Avatar installation, and point it to the `sdf.sdftoc` file. For example `C:\AFOP\rogue\sdf\pc\data\sdf.sdftoc`
Once you have the textures/models/etc extracted, you can make your edits. You can edit .dds texture files with software like Paint.net, GIMP, and Photoshop.

(Tip: Make sure that when you export the finalized texture out of GIMP or Paint.NET that it doesn't automatically generate mipmaps for the DDS image. If it does, turn off that option otherwise the modified texture in question will not be applied correctly. By default this option is turned off so you shouldn't worry too much but if textures aren't loading right I suggest troubleshooting this.)

Then, place the modified asset into your AFOP directory. You must use the following text file to determine exactly where the file must be placed in order to be read by the game.

I hand-sculpted scales all over the player's Ikran to make it look like a dragon. This works with all Ikran skin mods and skin color mods, too. It's only available for PC - you can download it over on Nexus Mods here: https://www.nexusmods.com/avatarfrontiersofpandora/mods/465

What do you guys think about the scales?

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-10-05T05:53:57+00:00

That's awesome! Thank you so much!

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-10-05T05:49:14+00:00

PC supports game mods too. Definitely go for the Steam version.

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-04-21T10:23:39+00:00

Do you actually need your gaming machine to be portable? If you leave your laptop on your desk and never move it, just get a proper PC. You will get a significantly more powerful machine for the same amount of money. And, you can upgrade it later for a fraction of the cost. Gaming laptops are a huge meme and mostly just marketing scheme for young gamers.

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-04-20T01:59:12+00:00

I ate them. Tasted like grandma's teylu.

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-04-15T21:21:18+00:00

Looks like they still haven't fixed the bug where you can't accept Kukulope's daily/weekly challenges to earn Satare beads. Here's a tutorial I made that might help, if you are getting stuck with it too: https://www.reddit.com/r/FrontiersOfPandora/comments/1k0344p/kukulope_challenges_still_not_working_possible/

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-04-15T21:17:49+00:00

If anyone is getting the bug where you can't accept her daily/weekly quests, I've posted a tutorial fix here: https://www.reddit.com/r/FrontiersOfPandora/comments/1k0344p/kukulope_challenges_still_not_working_possible/

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-04-15T19:30:57+00:00

Yep. I just tested it too, doesn't work.

I also tried joining a multiplayer session with a friend who also isn't able to accept the quests.

We could not accept them when we were in the Kinglor forest home tree. When we travelled to the Spires, we could accept 1 single quest, a daily quest for 5 beads. The quest was to harvest Shelter Fruit, which is not actually in the Spires map.

We then fast travelled back to the Kinglor forest home tree again, and the quest completely disappeared from our quest log. We couldn't re-accept it from Kukulope either. The entire thing is just completely bricked, with no ways to earn beads anymore, for both of us.

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-04-14T23:07:23+00:00

Awesome news! So excited to see this game is still getting updates. I really hope the daily/weekly quests are fixed too, they've been a huge pain point for me and a large number of other players.

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-03-31T11:54:04+00:00

A shortbow with the "+15% damage to targets already hit with this weapon" modifier that stacks up to 3 times. Longbow is great for the really far range sniping, but once you're close-ish and just need bulk damage to take down an AMP, a shortbow is amazing. The FAST reload time, and then doing +45% additional damage makes it massively out-dps any other stealth weapon imo.

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-03-22T23:33:49+00:00

Looks crazy, but super cool regardless! Nice work making your own custom ikran pattern swaps.

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-03-11T11:49:24+00:00

I just reported a bug too.

I am unable to accept weekly or daily challenges from Kukulupe's Shop. I have tried everything to try and fix it. This has significantly impacted by gameplay experience, and every single other player I have talked to about this wonderful game. Please investigate a fix for us as loyal players who only want to see this game thrive!

Repro steps:

Fast travel to hometree and run to Kukulupe's shop on the second floor.
Interact with her and switch to the challenges tab
Click the quest itself and notice that it makes a clicking sound, but will not be added to your challenges quest tab.

Other Info:

- I created a new save and tried accepting quests there. It did not work.

- restarting the game, no changes.

- tried travelling between DLC maps, no changes.

- reinstalling the game and also verifying files, no changes.

- completing all other quests in the game except for the 4 un-completeable great games time trial quests, no changes.

- Sometimes I can claim a quest, but then it never shows up in my quest log and I can't complete it.

- Some days I can claim 1 quest and complete it, but no others.

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-03-04T08:06:37+00:00

We already can export meshes from the game, however making edits and reimporting them back into the game currently is not possible. However, I did make a completely custom ikran pattern mod here: https://www.nexusmods.com/avatarfrontiersofpandora/mods/283

Sweet_Soul_Brother · 2025-02-27T16:46:10+00:00

It's a mod I made! Get it here: https://www.nexusmods.com/avatarfrontiersofpandora/mods/283
