# Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.)
## Q: What is fheroes2?
**fheroes2** is a recreation of Heroes of Might and Magic II game engine.
This open source multi-platform project, written from scratch, is designed to reproduce the original game with significant improvements in the gameplay, graphics and
logic (including support for high-resolution graphics, improved AI, numerous fixes and UI improvements), breathing new life into one of the most addictive turn-based
strategies.
## Q: Is fheroes2 a mod?
No. fheroes2 project is **not** a mod. Mods are reverse-engineered modifications of existing games. fheroes2 project is written from scratch and does not modify any
files from the original game.
## Q: Is fheroes2 project free?
Yes, absolutely. It is a free open source project.
## Q: How can I contribute to the project?
**fheroes2** is a collaboration project of a team of people from many areas. The team includes developers, QA engineers (testers), music/audio composers, 2D artists
and most importantly - players. Here are many areas which you can contribute to the project:
* **development**. The biggest area. Basic programming skills are required (even if it's not C++ language) to solve some issues. We have a huge variety of bugs to be
fixed and features to be implemented. You can try your skills by picking issues which have **Good first issue** label on them. The project has automated CI/CD pipeline
which helps any developer to find some weak places in their code. Also every pull request goes through proper code review to keep the quality of the source code.
* **testing**. Since we have a lot of changes being committed we sometimes struggle in time to test all of them. First of all, not all bugs or missing features have
been discovered. Secondly, each pull request from a developer ideally should go through testing stage before being merged. It could look like an easy area but it's
very tedious as it requires a lot of patience.
* **design/art**. We're going to expand the game by introducing a brand new add-on. Our team is lacking of very good pixel art designers who can help us adding new
content. So a person who is willing to help with pixel art would receive a bunch of tasks to work with starting from a simple one image design. You can ask more
information in our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/xF85vbZ).
* **sound and music**. The original game is missing sounds for certain objects on the map. Also we require new sound and music content to be added in the aforementioned
add-on. You can ask more information in our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/xF85vbZ).
* **translation**. The main language in the game is English but our players come from many countries. We have support of Polish, Russian, French and German languages
which still require help to finish all translations. In the near future we're going to expand the list of supported languages to cover ever wider audience.
* **story writing** or narrative writing. The campaign in the upcoming add-on needs an extensive story as the main driver. The team has sketches about the campaign
story line but we need impressively expand it with details and side quests. You can ask more information in our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/xF85vbZ).
* **voice acting**. The campaign in the upcoming add-on will require voice actors to make a rich experience of a story-line. You can ask more information in our
[Discord server](https://discord.gg/xF85vbZ).
* **video**. The campaign in the upcoming add-on will require (most likely 3D based) video entries to explain the story-line. You can ask more information in our
[Discord server](https://discord.gg/xF85vbZ).
* **support**. Anyone can support the project either by spreading the word about it or making a donation (via [Patreon](https://www.patreon.com/fheroes2)) which will
be used for the future improvements of the project.
## Q: I have save files from the original Heroes of Might and Magic II. Does fheroes2 support them?
Unfortunately, no. fheroes2 does not support saves from the original game.
