[FAQ]
Q: What is this mod and what is the goal?
A: The Arkham Community Patches are a series of projects for Arkham City, Origins and Knight which aim to add new content, restore deleted/cut content, fix bugs and improve the overall user experience.

Q: What will be the benefit of using skins through the patch as opposed to Resorep or Special K?
A: The skins in this patch don't rely on external programs and run via the game files directly. A result of this is that they'll work perfectly with graphics settings, as well as on Linux based machines via WINE or Proton.

Q: How can I assist the team in making the patch better?
A: We're always looking for coders, translators and skin artists to join our team and make this the best project possible. If it's something you would like to be a part of, please drop a comment or PM one of our team. 

Q: What is the difference between the main versions, lite and skins only files?
A: The main version will have everything except the debug menu. The LITE version has free roam and selectable dual play. The SKINS ONLY option only has the skins and Batmobiles added by the patch.

Q: Can I install both the LITE and SKINS ONLY versions separately if I change my mind later?
A: Yes.

Q: I have installed both the LITE and SKINS ONLY options, then installed the main file and now I have duplicated skins and free roam options, how do I fix this?
A: Go to steamapps\common\Batman Arkham Knight\DLC\367480 and delete the COMMUNITYPATCHLITE and AKCPJUSTSKINS folders.

Q: I have all DLC but not the Season Pass, can I still use the mod?
A: Yes, just move the CommunityPatch folder to any other numbered DLC folder.

Q: I have previously downloaded the mod and want to update it. Can I just extract over the previous version?
A : Yes, so long as the previous mod was the same as the new one ie LITE over LITE or FULL over FULL.
