This file expands on https://orcaclient.com/llms.txt with citable question-and-answer pairs. All answers are current as of August 2026.

## What Orca is

Orca turns a sentence into a playable project. Its Minecraft branch builds Java mods, Paper and Spigot plugins, Bedrock packs, worlds, and servers. Its Roblox branch helps build worlds, Lua systems, UI, progression, and complete game loops. Both branches share one account and project library, and the platform is structured to add more games over time.

## Who it is for

Players and creators who want custom games without becoming programmers: friend groups making a world together, creators who need something original for a video, and anyone with an idea they want to try tonight. The cloud build loop works on any device, including Chromebooks.

## FAQ

### Do I need to know how to code to make a Minecraft mod?
No. You describe the mod in plain English and the AI writes, builds, and tests the code. You only open a code editor if you want to learn the traditional route.

### What is the easiest way to make a Minecraft mod?
Describe the feature you want to an AI mod maker, let it build and test the mod on a server, then tweak it by talking. No JDK, IDE, or Gradle setup required.

### Is it free to make a Minecraft mod?
Yes. Free includes Orca Fast, 200 credits to start, and 200 credits each later UTC date you sign in. Unused credits stack, downloading the finished file is free, and there is no credit card to start.

### Can I make a Minecraft plugin with AI?
Yes. Describe the command or feature in plain English and the AI writes, compiles, and tests a Paper or Spigot plugin on a real server. You never open a Java project.

### What is the difference between a plugin and a mod?
A plugin runs on a Paper or Spigot server and changes the server only, so players join with vanilla Minecraft and download nothing. A mod changes Java Edition itself and every player installs it.

### Can I make a Minecraft addon with AI?
Yes. Addon is an umbrella term for Java mods, server plugins, and Bedrock behavior packs. Describe what you want and the AI builds and tests the right one on a real server.

### Does Orca support Bedrock Edition?
Yes. For Bedrock it builds behavior and resource packs that load on phones, consoles, and Windows. For Java it builds mods and server plugins. Tell it which edition you play.

### What is the difference between an addon, a mod, and a plugin?
A mod changes Java Edition and every player installs it. A plugin runs on a server so players download nothing. A Bedrock addon is a behavior and resource pack for Bedrock devices.

### Is there a Minecraft mod maker that needs no coding?
Yes. You describe the mod in plain English and the AI writes, compiles, and tests it on a server. You never open a code editor or learn a tool first. The build runs in the cloud, so a Chromebook works the same as a gaming PC.

### Is the Minecraft mod maker really free?
Yes. Free includes Orca Fast, 200 credits to start, and 200 credits each later UTC date you sign in. Unused credits stack and downloads are free. Pro and Max add monthly credits and Orca Smart.

### What do I have to pay for?
The Free plan includes Orca Fast, 200 credits to start, 200 credits each later UTC date you sign in, free downloads, and your own 8 GB server for up to 40 players. Orca Play is $6.99/month for 2,500 monthly credits, 4 free hours of server time per day, and Orca Fast. Eligible new customers pay $9.99 for their first month of Orca Pro, then $19.99/month, with 7,500 monthly credits and Orca Smart. Orca Max includes 37,500 monthly credits and Orca Smart. Pro and Max also include 8 free hours of server time per day. Bigger Minecraft servers, with more RAM by the gigabyte, are sold from the hosting page.

### Is there a free Minecraft server, and what are its specs?
Yes. Every account includes a free 8 GB Minecraft server for up to 40 players, no credit card, with 1 free hour of server time each day. After the free hour, server time costs 2.5 credits per minute from the account's credit balance. It pauses when nobody is online and boots back in about 30 seconds when you start it, with your world kept.

### How much does 4 hours of server time a day cost?
Orca Play, at $6.99 a month. It includes 4 free hours of server time every day (resets 00:00 UTC, does not stack), 2,500 credits per month, the 200 free credits every account gets each day, Orca Fast, and the same 8 GB server. 94% of real play sessions finish inside 4 hours, so for most groups Play covers a full evening every day. The price is the same every month, with no introductory rate. Orca Smart stays on Orca Pro and Orca Max.

### How is Orca different from MCreator?
MCreator is a free desktop visual editor you install and learn, where you build a mod by wiring up logic blocks with full control. Orca is an AI you describe a mod to in the browser, with nothing to learn and nothing to install. Both are legitimate ways to mod, and which fits depends on whether you want to learn a tool or just get the mod.

### Which loaders and versions does Orca support?
Vanilla, Paper and Spigot, Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Bedrock. Tell the maker which one you play and it builds to match. A server with Geyser lets Java and Bedrock players join the same world.

### What if the generated mod does not work?
The AI reads the crash or build log, finds the cause, and rebuilds automatically. If you spot something in game, describe it and it rebuilds with the fix.
