re-skate wiki About: Independent Unofficial Fan Site Statement

re-skate.wiki is an independent, unofficial fan site about ReSkate, the third-party open-source mod platform for EA's free-to-play game skate. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Electronic Arts, Full Circle, the Dingo-Shenanigans team, or Thunderstore. Every version-sensitive claim here carries an as-of stamp, currently as of v1.1.3, 2026-10-07.

Who Runs This Site

This site is a fan project run by players, for players. ReSkate moves fast and its documentation is scattered across a GitHub README, release tags, server manuals, and community guides, so this site turns that material into structured, searchable, version-stamped guides for PC players installing ReSkate or stuck after installing it.

The independence statement, in full: re-skate.wiki has no connection to Electronic Arts or the Full Circle studio, none to the Dingo-Shenanigans open-source team that builds ReSkate, and none to Thunderstore, which distributes community mods. ReSkate's own README says: "ReSkate is a fan project. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Electronic Arts or Full Circle." The same applies one level down to this site: not affiliated with or endorsed by EA, Full Circle, Dingo-Shenanigans, or Thunderstore.

Official source: ReSkate on GitHub

That status sets the site's limits. It cannot speak for EA, cannot speak for the ReSkate developers, and cannot grant permissions for anyone else. Where an official position exists, it is quoted and linked; where none exists, the page says so.

What This Site Covers, and What It Never Does

Coverage is practical ReSkate knowledge only: installing the launcher, playing offline, hosting dedicated servers, installing and picking mods, fixing common errors, and tracking the version history.

The second row is also a project rule. ReSkate's in-game news feed states the project is "NOT a replacement for the live game, a way to get paid cosmetics, or a place for leaks," and this site honors the same boundary. For background, read the ReSkate and skate. name explainer; to install, use the official download walkthrough, which points only at GitHub Releases, never at a mirror.

How This Site Sources Facts

Every mechanism, version, command, and config-field claim traces to one of two tiers, and the stronger tier wins disagreements.

Field names and command spellings are copied character-for-character from the source. Keys appear only when the README documents them, and mod names only when a listing names them. Anything without a source is left out or marked unconfirmed. The companion rules live on the safety and trust guide, which separates audited facts from community claims, and on the version history tracker, which records what each release changed.

Version Policy: Read the Stamp Before You Trust the Page

ReSkate went open source on 2026-10-02 alongside v1.0.0 and reached v1.1.3 by 2026-10-06, with milestones including a rewritten mod manager, native Linux dedicated servers, an in-game Trainer, and a global ban list (ReSkate Releases page). Community install coverage at the skatemods install guide was current through v1.1.1 as of 2026-10-05, with launch context at the skatemods launch post.

Three rules follow. First, every version-shaped statement carries an as-of version and date. Second, when a newer release changes behavior, the affected pages move their stamp. Third, confirm your installed version before troubleshooting, because mismatches cause most mod and server failures. The pinned Steam build shows why: the launcher restores it when needed, while outdated mods are skipped by name. If EA ships a newer build after this page's date, the current number lives on the version history tracker.

Piracy Stance: Free Game, Your Own Copy, No Shortcuts

skate. is free, and ReSkate's README states the requirement plainly: "You need your own copy of skate. on Steam." This site enforces the same position: bring your own free Steam account and legitimate install, either next to your existing files or as an official Steam download of around 14 GB. This site never provides game files, never links repacks or mirrors, and never explains how to bypass payment, ownership checks, or access controls. The pre-install briefing and trust checklist are on the safety and trust guide.

Safety and Bans: Only Sourced Facts, No Guarantees

The two questions every new player asks, is the download safe and can EA ban my account, are answered here only with sourced facts. On safety: ReSkate is GPL-3.0 open source with readable code, the license covers ReSkate's own code only, and downloads should come solely from official GitHub Releases.

On bans, the honest answer is short: as of 2026-10-07, EA has made no public statement about ReSkate. The project's own materials claim players cannot be banned, which is the project's claim rather than EA's position. This site neither promises safety from bans nor spreads ban scares.

Limitations and Disclaimer

This site is provided as-is for general information. Guides are checked against the sources above, but mistakes are possible, versions move quickly, and your setup may differ. Follow any guide at your own risk: back up saves and configs first, test server settings with a restart before inviting players, and install mods only from authors you trust. Nothing here is legal advice, security advice, or official support. Names, marks, and game content belong to their owners; skate. belongs to EA and ReSkate to its contributors under GPL-3.0. The photo on this page shows server-rack cabling as a thematic illustration of self-hosted infrastructure; it is a stock photo, not a game screenshot and not a picture of any real ReSkate server.

Contact and Corrections

This site keeps no support desk and cannot help with individual installs, bans, or mod debugging; those belong on the official project channels. The most useful correction report names the page, the sentence, the ReSkate version you run, and the source that contradicts it. Corrections publish as page updates with a moved as-of stamp, not silent edits.

FAQ

Is re-skate.wiki the official ReSkate website?

No. It is an independent unofficial fan site with no affiliation with EA, Full Circle, Dingo-Shenanigans, or Thunderstore. The official project lives on GitHub, and community downloads live on Thunderstore.

Can I trust the version numbers and commands here?

Every version-sensitive claim carries an as-of stamp, currently as of v1.1.3, 2026-10-07 unless a page says otherwise. Fields, commands, and keys are copied from official manuals and stated only when a source documents them; anything unconfirmed is labeled, not guessed.

Does this site provide game downloads or mods?

No. skate. is free, but bring your own Steam account and legitimate install; ReSkate comes only from GitHub Releases and mods only from Thunderstore. This site links to those sources and never rehosts files.

Will EA ban me for using ReSkate?

As of 2026-10-07, EA has made no public statement about ReSkate, so there is no official position to quote. The project's own materials claim players cannot be banned, which is the project's claim, not EA's. Read the safety and trust guide before deciding.

Where should I ask for help with ReSkate itself?

Use the official channels: GitHub issues for bugs and the hubs on the community entry page for discussion. Check the error troubleshooting collection and the version history tracker first, since most failures are version mismatches.
