❓ Q&A
Quick answers
Q: Low FPS or crashes?
A: Turn off shaders. Vehicle model detail may cause drops — normal.
Q: Gun has no animation?
A: First, make sure that your gunpack is compatible with the server. If there is a mismatch, request the missing gunpack from the administrator and install it. If it matches, use the /tacz reload command in the single-player save file.
Q: Have a feature idea?
A: Share it on the issue feedback page — we'd love to hear it.
Q: Can I use files from this pack in my own project?
A: Yes — except for all gunpacks and maps. Those belong to their original authors.
