[W3RQ01]

A catalogue of rolling-stock expansion mods has been added/started on the advtrains wiki here

The PR by gpcf (commit 2ac602865b) disabled this for some reason. You can change "is_locomotive=false" to true to fix this. Can someone create an issue? I don't have a Notabug.org account

Ok, thanks

Clarification: I spoke to gpcf a few days ago who clarified that the Silberling doesn't actually have a locomotive, rather an unpowered control car. The driver's HUD is only for aesthetics and not actually useable.

Slightly offtopic: ok which moron registered a Maverick2797 account the day I mentioned I didn't have a notabug account. Not cool.

Edit: <-- this moron completely blanked out registering an account. False alarm. Go on with your day :P

ok, so what i have to change in the files of the mod? because i want that the driver's cab of silberling can be a "locomotive"

[Maverick2797]

moretrains_basic/init.lua:251-->change to is_locomotive=true,

Hi, a question:
When new trains will be released, is possible to add the possibility to change the livery with the bike painter like in the jre e231?

Hi, a question:

AFAIK the livery feature is still in development and is experimental. Hopefully in the future there will be a built-in tool or track section that does what the bike painter is currently being used to do, removing the need for a semi-unrelated mod. Applying and changing the livery requires a few functions not yet incorporated into the main advtrains mod, being exclusive to the JRE E231 mod. Of course these could also be ported into other trains too, it just takes a bit more coding to set it up.

I'm working on dynamic textures for the gondola cars, depending on their contents.

I tried it, works really good

[Maverick2797]

One thing to remember is that the textures can't be changed while the wagon is in a loaded area. If you leave the area for a few seconds to give the wagon time to become unloaded it will change texture to the item in the first inv slot if that is a full block item (eg cobble, gravel, dirt, bricks.)
Really good work gpcf! Makes a busy yard look lively.

*pokes thread*
Just checking to see if rubberduck is still working on moretrains... there's been a few PR's on the notabug for a few months than probably need addressing... gpcf did a great job making the gondolas display the contents of the first inventory slot, and passengers currently can't ride in the Silberling control car

[loppi]

oh,yeah,its my favourite mod-mod XD. i really like the german diesel,its just like home. but,hmm,im really sad about it has no sound.
edit: second question: is it possible to make the steam train without cow catcher? i only make european railways,thats because.

[T6C]

This mod isn't in the "online content" section in the game's main menu. Is that because this is a WIP mod?

[loppi]

i think yes. or because its an add on for another mod like "retro computers pack" for the "PC" mod.
but,this one is on in game too.... :-/

[Blockhead]

Yes I've noticed the absence of this modpack on ContentDB before. I would upload it but I feel like it would be disrespectful to rubberduck to upload his mod under my name on there. Perhaps if he remains/is uncontactable for a longer period. In the meantime, I can recommend gpcf's fork on NotABug. We actively develop and maintain moretrains on LinuxForks server.

[loppi]

oh my god i thought this is the latest version of moretrains! :o

contentdb staff can upload it if needed. otherwise if someone wants to upload a fork they can under https://content.minetest.net/policy_and_guidance/ section 3.2
