Railway System with Intercity Train for Unreal Engine

[@envivomedia]

This is really cool! Finally train nerds can make the Train Sim World that they wanted to make (i.e, make it fun!)

Знайшов Вас з маркетпласу випадково. Круті роботи!

[@Native_Creation]

So amazing, excellent work, and great to see how the tunnels are done as well

[@inspiringheritage]

You should sell this setup to Epic for twinmotion - very neat well done.

[@suryakamalnd9888]

Cool video!! But can we add our own train models to this? Can you make a tutorial on how to add your own train models?

[@lyoshko]

Thanks for good question. I updated Documentation. See page 20 for info about custom train models

[@suryakamalnd9888]

@@lyoshko Thanks!! I'll check it. I want to add a old werstren style goods and passenger train for a game in desert canyon. A wild werstren type of game...

[@lyoshko]

@@suryakamalnd9888 should look interesting!

Does anyone have an idea on how to attach a character with animations to the seats in the train in the sequencer?

[@rebeccabyrne7796]

Hey is there any way of using this with the sequencer? So you can animate the train along the same spline that is building the tracks?

[@lyoshko]

Trail is already moving along that spline:) So you don't need to animate train. Simply animate your camera in Sequencer, this should be enough.

[@rebeccabyrne7796]

When I start sequencer the train doesn't move - if that makes sense? It only moves when I play the game@@lyoshko

[@lyoshko]

​@@rebeccabyrne7796this is strange. i will try to test sequencer now.

[@rebeccabyrne7796]

its probably something simple I'm doing wrong - do I need to use the BP Train Controller in the sequencer?@@lyoshko

[@lyoshko]

@@rebeccabyrne7796 i test in UE4.25. Empty level. I add Tracks, Train and Level Sequence with camera. I use "Auto Play" checkbox in Sequence settings, press Play (game) and it works. I record video and train works too. I guess you are trying to move Train with Play button in Sequencer? Train don't work this way. I'm not even sure how to do that. Could you do your task without these keyframes?

[@buster5661]

Can it have multiple functional train station stops?

[@lyoshko]

you can have as many Platforms to stop on as you like

[@paulunreal8526]

Great plugin ..now i am struggling to replace a mesh with my mesh for train body its all messed up )) would be great to watch tutorial step by step how to replace train mesh with new one

[@lyoshko]

there can not be any tutorial because everyone has different train made of different meshes. there are some info about replacing train model in documentation.

[@paulunreal8526]

@@lyoshko I agree that everyone has different meshes but documentation is very limited regarding mesh replacement.. and any tutorial would help me cause maybe I'm doing something wrong...the most important to see a whole process from start to end

[@lyoshko]

@@paulunreal8526 you can see how i made and separated meshes. just look at them in product. Now you only need to separate your train into meshes just like i did. Give them correct pivots. Simply replace my meshes with yours. And it works! Problems begin if your train (steam, freight train) cannot be separated to meshes like mine. Anyway, contact me discord: lyoshko and i will try to help.

[@paulunreal8526]

ok looks like im making a progress.. i've change a pivot point for my meshes and it works now@@lyoshko

[@rubik777]

Will you add procedural junctions to your project?

[@lyoshko]

No plans for improving existing switch functionality

[@rubik777]

are train wheels physically move within tracks or just a pattern path?

[@lyoshko]

they just follow track spline

[@lyoshko]

any physical movement like this would be very performance costly.

[@rubik777]

@@lyoshko would be great to have physical wheels interactions within track - does not matter how performance will be

[@lyoshko]

@@rubik777 why do you need this?

@@lyoshko i have not like a bullet in india we different types of coaches and in end we Don't have engine also that's why i am confused 🥲

[@lyoshko]

@@basamcreations2706 i searched and i see there are different types of trains and cars in India

[@basamcreations2706]

@@lyoshko yes how can i implement this 🥲 can you make tutorial

[@lyoshko]

@@basamcreations2706 this pack has no built-in ability to change train model. Mainly because each train is different. If your train is made similar to one included in pack, then read documentation. If your train is different, you have to set it up by yourself, there cannot be tutorial for each train type.

[@dj_daniilka7275]

Нічого собі. А я розпочав робити симулятор вузькоколійки на UE4!

[@lyoshko]

воу, я заінтригований!!

[@lyoshko]

як успіхи?

[@pixelissue]

Is this fully network replicated?

[@lyoshko]

it's not replicated, but it doesn't need to be: trains move synchronously on each device

[@markmalewski]

@@lyoshko- so this can be used in a multiplayer game, and everyone will see the trains in the same location (synchronously)?

[@lyoshko]

I just tested Rialway System in multiplayer (2 players) for an hour. And I see that trains are not 100% syncrhronized. They move a bit differently. But not much. I saw about 2-3 seconds difference between one train in two windows

[@markmalewski]

@@lyoshko- so how do we get this 100% synchronized? (while still having decent multiplayer performance?) I need this to have the trains synchronized between various players (in real-time) so that players can play together. Thanks Lyoshko!

[@lyoshko]

@@markmalewski actually i'm no expert in synchronization over multiplayer so i don't know. If you know how multiplayer synchronization works I guess you just need to sync Position and Current Speed variable of each Train

[@JurijusXas]

Can you add your own train model?

[@lyoshko]

Sure you can. You need to: create static meshes just like meshes included in pack make sure pivots and sockets are just like in included meshes edit BP_Train and replace all meshes with yours

[@rubik777]

Do you have UE5.1 version?

[@lyoshko]

Yes, Railway System supports UE5.1

[@ashwinj9879]

2 year old asset yet not free :C , i guess i need to make from scratch

[@lyoshko]

@@ashwinj9879 it would be really interesting to see your version of railway system

[@DataJuggler]

As someone who doesn't know how to do stuff in Unreal, I would consider spending $89 if the video has voice instructions. If English isn't your language, you can pay someone to narrate. I can't follow along what you are doing to make the terrain get out of the way.

[@lyoshko]

This video is not a terrain tutorial. There are many tutorials on KZbin about how Landscape works. You need to learn Landscape editing to create open-word games
