I love all of them. I appreciate you making these free. Also if you type %localappdata% in your windows explorer address bar, it will take you directly to the AppData - Local directory.
I came back to this video with 1.0. There really isn't all that much content out there about good railway blueprints. Although woefully outdated, this is still one of the better videos out there about rail building.
This is so awesome! I love the designs and I love that you not only show how to build them but also which real-life concepts inspired them. Really helps a lot with creating realistic looking builds.
Have some Valheim backburner projects, but they all more of replicas of castles from other games. My hopes on Cities Skylines 2 to make some nice IRL/hybrid videos xD
I was doing this method but I'm OCD(actually ocd, not like most people that just say it) and I'm concerned that many pieces will be underground, reducing my performance on something that no one will see and is not functional. So I end up just making a hotbar full of all the pieces i need and do my fairy simple design manually. it's not too bad doing it manually because i space my supports out, but I'm probably shooting myself in the foot on this because this game performs very well considering the amount of stuff that players end up building. Great video btw. I loved all of the extra flavor-facts and history that you included. It was very professional with a very good pace, which I'm sure is hard to balance in a video like this.
But in real life everything still has some sort of foundation, extending underground ;) The most functional build is the one putting everything on the ground in the game. So any sort of foundation is already an attempt at making things realistic...
@@Yakez42 the first part of that comment helps for sure lol the last half sounds like complete nonsense. Theres no way it's better to build on the ground.
Very nice. I appreciate the part where you showed the process of how to make them. I wasn't even aware of those small beams you could angle however you want. I think the viaduct was my favorite for looks, but it takes up the most space.
Your videos together with the real life examples you are showing are top notch my friend. Thank you for sharing. Btw your builds are out of this world, sometimes I wonder how people even come up with some designs. My factories were just one or two flat surfaces up and then encased with simple orange wall, later I found that you can change the material but that that does not even come close to your desings. Like comparing a baby's plastic toy with a space station.
This is such a good video. Not only is it inspiration to help make your world look great, but you're going into the history of different bridge structures, I adore this, thank you for this, and you better believe I'm going to be using some of these techniques!
Thank you Yakez. I learned how to nudge blueprints from this video. I downloaded the rail section blueprints too. Thank you for telling us how to incorporate the blueprints into our builds. Your designs are inspirational and very practical. I enjoyed watching this tutorial - your choice of clips, sounds and humor were delightful.
Yoo, these builds are insanely beautiful and also a great inspiration! I built a factory that is floating on several platforms in the sky, but had no idea how to really round the build up in terms of cosmetic and "how it levitates". Your engine build for the levitating rail is freaking amazing - definitely will take that as inspiration!
Also I think you can make something something like huge Heli-carrier engine pods by using painted beams and signs! Something like this is on my todo wish list in Satisfactory xD
A great video for some solid ideas. I've just started building trains in my 1.0 and was playing around with different ideas for blueprints, great info here about how to add the slopes and adjust heights etc. Subbed.
I love how your drives are named after countries (seemingly at random) and also Argentina (which is where im from) is also almost full lmao. On a more on topic comment, nice video, i'll be likely using the anti gravity stuff since i never thought about a way that could be made and instead just made big ass pillars, this would also save me awful lots of time on the aesthetics
Thank you kind sir for opening my eyes. I not only got a lesson in design, but in history as well. You have my like and subscribe. Thank you very much.
Seen all your incredible builds on reddit and its cool to find you have a chanel. i will have to download the blueprints and take some inspiration. THANKS!
I really like the Viaduct look! It would suit my factory perfectly, though I noticed you didn't go through how to do a curve. I have some 90 degree turns and I am unsure how Viaducts work with curves. The single rail technique is what I'm using now, just putting some concrete pillars underneath, but I'd be curious to see more complicated curve designs!
Yeah, viaduct curves are in the ballpark of "problem for future me". I just tend to swap to pillar designs on the turns and make instant 30-90 degree turns over making monumental long curves. Also I kind of do not see the way to make an actual curve inside blueprint designer, since I need like 11 tiles of space for proper curve without using mods. This is why I just avoid them for now
Keep in mind though... there's a limit on the number of individual objects in the world. With designs like this and the power of blueprint building, one can hit this limit fairly easily.
Thanks for this video. I have been looking for exactly this for days because I can't figure out how to make a nice support. That said, how do you "turn" or angle the supports to the direction that we want? Straight line works great, but if I want to join different supports so that the top platform connects together to different angled supports.
There would be a video in the next several days dedicated to curves ;) It is a bit harder than it looks. I guess by Tuesday or Wednesday video would be out.
Sweet. Really look forward to it. I tried the catwalk method, it works for general roads or foundations but combining them using blueprints is too complicated for me.
Would you mind sharing your specs/graphics settings? I've tried using your lighting trick underneath rails to give the anti-gravity appearance, but they're not nearly as bright - mostly just look like bright squares rather than glowing lights.
Я плохой дизайнер, но то, что ты показал, как можно использовать трубы - это возможно то, чего мне не хватало. Огромное спасибо. Рельсы железнодорожные куда прокалывать будешь? Будут чертежи для станций?
Станции не помещаются в сам дизайнер. Сначала, я думаю сделать парочку модульных мостов, там где опоры не каждые 32 метра, а там уже и займусь станциями. Да и другие проекты в самом разгаре))
How do you do train stations? I can see them kind of in the background, and I'm curious how you make them look good alongside the supports? Great video!
In update 8 I was just making similar supports for train stations. Probably would make something more interesting with bigger designers in 1.0 for train stations
I would build ancient style if i had a minion to build it all for me, but since i do all the work, sci-fi is the clear winner. Way simpler to work with
I made 2 different blueprints of the same straight rail blueprint, 1 with rails and 1 without rails. When making them i put down 1 with rails then 2 without rails, making it easier to connect later on.
This is very inspiring and amazing! Mixing real-life is great. Got a problem tho, do signs get brighter if I set color into 500? I can't get as bright as the video did, even download the blueprint.
If you could go into how to handle curves, it would be greatly appreciated I've been messing around with rail blueprints myself to handle a lot of this and you do have some really great designs here. But I just can't figure out how to do anything but a fully manually built curve.
I made my blueprints in a way that i can snap them all to each other. Only thing i dont bother with is curves cause that is a lot of work (altough i could make some 10º turn blueprints i suppose). I just make a 90º turn and keep going. But my ramp can snap on both sides allowing me to make a ramp up or down with it. I honestly just want to wait till belts/rails/pipes/cables auto connect between blueprints.
I love the K Truss design, and honestly I love all the designs, but is there any way you would recommend making turns for any of these? Railway curves in satisfactory are my absolute downfall.
I've found the most effective way of building railways in Satisfactory was waiting for drones, and never building them at all. Why bust chops like that I have no idea. Even in Factorio, it was just more complicated than worth the effort. I'm quite happy with my drones so far... closing in on the last Spacey Elevator stuff, and my nuclear plants have now issues, so sometimes the best way to do something is NOT to do something! I do have to admit it took me until grad school to truly understand the empty set. What an epiphany.
Here is the blueprint pack, what is your favorite elevated piece?
drive.google.com/file/d/1PE8hMgCk0bEz6WFy0BZr9KbYsuCHgrK1/view?usp=sharing
The flying one because I tend to build kilometer high highways to avoid the local fauna and it's an easy way to decorate it.
My favorite was the double round, open concrete supports for the K truss. Very pretty.
I love all of them. I appreciate you making these free. Also if you type %localappdata% in your windows explorer address bar, it will take you directly to the AppData - Local directory.

@@Yakez42 That would be great. I like all of your railways, because they are based on constuctions in real life, but I struggle with curves.
"Paint them red so they go faster", don't think we missed that 40K reference😂
Rrrrrred!
To make them stealthy, paint them purple! Because let's face it, who's ever seen a Purple Ork?
This is so awesome! I love the designs and I love that you not only show how to build them but also which real-life concepts inspired them. Really helps a lot with creating realistic looking builds.
Glad you like them!
Your format of mixing real-world reference with gameplay builds is dope. I'd love to see you play Valheim

@@Yakez42 thats awesome dude
This got me doing an entire new 'last gasp' run before 1.0 - awesome BPs - especially big thanks for making them freely available!
