FBA Project Newsletter Discord
A discord server has been made for the FBA project. It is not like most servers that are focused on community, as this one is primarely a way to follow the project outside of twitter updates. Plus some information about the project that's more extensive than what's available such as complete overview, FAQ etc.
There's no special patreon related stuff on it but its generally a good place for info on the project if you want it, + the updates as mentioned.

Hi GearHeart! I'm trying to join your Discord server for the first time, but the link shows as invalid/expired. I saw your comment about the auto-ban bot. My account is over a year old, so it might be a bug or an IP flag. Could you please check your ban logs for thealteredone_17751 and manually let me in? Thanks!
I've checked for "thealteredone_17751" user in our logs and everything, there's zero attempts of such a user trying to join and alike (even if they are kicked, it still logs), though, i may be able to find a log with userID, you can dm me with it if you want 100% certain check on that. Regardless, it only disallows accounts that are ~1 month old or under, i think, so, it shouldn't of kicked you, i am confused. And the link does still work, just verified.
The project is very good. But the fact that it has 30 frames per second or less is terrible. Without the FBA project, I have at least 200+ frames per second. But using the avatar in FPS drops to a measly 30 or less. The project has a lot of potential. But the most important thing is to optimize it. Yes, it sounds simple. But it's actually challenging. I understand. Your project goes beyond the capabilities of Minecraft and the figura mod. I hope you succeed. You can optimize your project to avoid such terrible FPS even on powerful PC. I wish you luck and success.
Good job. But please optimize. The frame rate is less than 30 frames per second (30FPS) . I recommend simplifying the animation. For example, making it possible to disable it. (Movement, attack). Your work is very good. Polygons, bone models, and animation. This creates a lot of load on minecraft. Unfortunately, minecraft is not ideal for using your work. But your work is excellent. I wish you luck and further improvements.
Animations have nothing to do with the lag and account only for ~1-5% of it at most, due to how blockbench files are. (There are no "bones" in blockbench, and animations are flat values, json files, zero complexity, the most barebones lag-free kind of animations possible) The lag is because FBA itself as a whole is pushing figura and minecraft's limits on what's even possible, plus the high poly models. Minecraft is NOT made for meshes and the only way i can use them is thanks to the figura mod. Because of this - the project will be inherently laggy no matter what. Trust me - i've optimized it a lot compared to 1.0 version, and even most recent update's biggest thing is more optimization. But it will never be lagless. There is a community driven project which aims to re-write FBA to make it more optimized as a whole, as besides models, the lag comes from unoptimized code, because i'm not a scripter, and had to learn lua for this project. "FBA:Community Rewrite" is the name of the project, as the "way less laggy" FBA (though still in an in-complete state.)
So how do I change the age restriction? I don't really understand this stuff.
Please direct message me on patreon so i can allow you through
Why can't I accept the invitation to join the Discord server?
There's minimum account age limit of 1 month, so it auto banned the account (i've checked the logs)
Nice 👀
