There is a light helmet in IC2 (i think could be an addon) that you wear and the light comes on in the dark and moves with you, granted its not fluid but perhaps something similar could be done

The light helmet hardly "works. It more like lights the area if you stop and stand, since the updates are kind of slow so if you move , the light updates happen quite delayed. Imagine how that will be with the speed of a metro. The right will update after the train will be gone =p

I do believe though that Dynamic Lights is a good start to add moving liught, but thanks to Minecraft code, it would be glitchy and weird, in high speeds.

Havent tested it, but it seems AtomicStryker has achieved this in his Dynamic Lights mod (and its an FML coremod). Could be worth looking into

Any idea why I get this error and my client crashes? Server is fine though.

I'm having an annoying problem with this mod. I'm trying to make rails in creative mod, I put down the recipe for the rails correctly but nothing happens! Like for H.S. Track rails: I but down three vertical steel ingots, 3 vertical blaze powders and 3 vertical gold ingots and nothing happens. It's like I put down the recipe wrong. Is there something else I need to download or another mod I need to make it to work for me?

Those rails are from railcraft i believe

I have two bugs.

When chance the direction when i am at the and of the track and i drive back all stutter

And when i stand and do the brake in the train dont stop really. He always drive away a little bit.

Are that known bugs ? Can someone say me fixes ?

Yup, same problem as mine. Change directions and camera jumps all over the place. Same with doing stop and starts, it jumps like crazy. I'm assuming 50% of the time the train just slowly inches its way in whatever direction it was going, keeping some motion it had before it stopped. I sometimes made my train do a rolling-stop (keeping the train moving at slow speeds) so it wouldn't jump, as well as adding turns into the track at each station to "remedy" it. Worked most of the time.

I think this was updated when reading the change log? Waiting for it to update on Mindcrack FTB to test it out if it fixes what I wanted 100% but I will give my obvious respects to Mrbrutal for giving us this mod and fixing it whenever he could. I just love this mod and helped me out in so many ways so far on the map I play on heh.

I also tried out the Zeppelin itself and it is insanely buggy on SMP. Even read the warning so I stuck to the trains heh. It is a flying death-trap that enjoys bouncing all over the place while also sending those white seat boxes outside of the craft. I never did have any luck with planes in Minecraft so I don't mind.

Also found the recipes I was looking for so woot! Time to expand my rail network heh. Finally got myself freight cars and shall be able to build more \o/. So glad I got this lovely helpful mod.

So do I need the Railcraft mod AS WELL as the Traincraft in order to make it really functional? Is that what my problem was?

EDIT:

Just downloaded Railcraft...I think I was confusing them with each other. I need both to make my train needs functional. Well, it's official: I am stupid. XD

Anyone?

Anyone?

Only thing i can think of: are your server and client Traincraft mods both the same version?

Araragararagarble! That original high speed train is still there! HIDEOUS! I didn't even make cars for it, and its texture never properly worked either! Why is it still in the mod? Its scale is way off, and the player Flintstones-Foot-Mobile's while in it.
"Proper" Texture:

Cool mod!!! But i don't think I can download it since i already have 61 mods installed and it is gonna get really laggy if I install more mods. . Well, i would have downloaded it if I my computer was faster...


Note: how long will it take you to add recipes?

i really like this mod

Guys, I can't get the Liquid Loaders/Unloaders from railcraft to work with Tank Carts. I've tried Tank carts linekd to Steam locomotive, or tank carts by themselves (moving around via powered rails), but every time it comes to Boarding track on top of the liquid loader it stops and nothing happens. No filling with water or anything (i was experimenting with water). Can anyone help me out? I've tried loader below track, loader 1 block above track, loader 2 blocks above the track, and still nothing.

Oh, and another question: wasn't IC2 water cells suppose to work with steam locomotives as well for water source? They aren't working for me, and only way for me to add water is using water bucket at the moment.

Hello, I am a long time fan of trains.

First, I congratulate you on achieving such an epic status.

Second, judging from some of the content this -at some point along the line- has originated from Trainz simulator. Why not add something along the lines of PaintShed or a content creator program as a low development priority?

If not, how can a standard old bloke like me create content for the mod?

If your post count is not below 100, and your modpack is not less than a month old, your permission will be denied on spot with no further consideration.

This seems to read as exactly the opposite of what you want it to.

if (postcount !< 100) && (modpackAge !< 1month) then (permsgranted == 0)

of course, everything in lawerspeak is backwards, anyway

Then create a better model

very much agreed if not it stays as a nice reminder of how the mod was more simple looking isnt it?
