Welcome to derfl007's Road Mod
Ever wanted to make your cities more realistic? Well you can start with adding roads, traffic lights, road signs, and more with this mod.
Some Blocks you'll find:
Asphalt Block - Generates in the world and yields tar when smelted, which is important for crafting
Road Blocks with various types of lines - Most of them also exist as slopes
Road Signs - The textures are based on Austrian signs, but feel free to make a texture pack with your own signs
Town Signs - Write your own text on them
Sign Printer - Used for crafting signs, requires base signs and some ink cartridges
Street Lanterns - They automatically turn on at night, pretty cool right?
Traffic Lights - They are animated, so you'll be able to actually use them in traffic (There are static versions as well)
Items:
Tar - Used for crafting Road Blocks
Wrench - Used to rotate the top textures of Road Blocks, especially useful for slopes
Sign templates - Round, Squared and Triangular; Used for crafting of Road Signs
Ink cartridges - Cyan, Magenta and Yellow; Also used for crafting of Road Signs

HD Textures
There is a resource pack that includes high resolution sign textures, be careful though, they use even more memory than the standard ones. You can get it here: https://github.com/derfl007/df-roads/releases/download/v1.5/df-roads.HD.zip
FAQ:
How do I play this mod?
- I'll make a Wiki for this mod soon, but for now, if there's anything that you can't work out, just ask.
1.7.10?
- No.
It is not working!!!
- Please tell me what's not working and give me a crash report (Don't post it here, post a pastebin link instead!)
Does this require Forge?
- Yes it does.
Can I use this in a modpack or on a server?
- If it is for a private server or modpack (like for you and your friends), you may use it, if it's public, please credit me and feel free to give me a link or something, I'd love to check it out!
Is this open source?
- Yes, you can contribute on GitHub: https://github.com/derfl007/df-roads

Can you please add all the items into a single Inventory button? Having 1 button for only 29 items is a bit too much, and the game rapidly transforms into a chaos when adding 4-5 mods. Or maybe add a config file that allows us to switch between multiple UI buttons or a single one would be GREAT. Thank you so much!
PS: I would gladly sponsor this.
Mega mod
Is there a way to stop the asphalt blocks generating naturally as ores?
I notice theres no config file. Is there another way to do this?
In reply to Forge_User_05824733:
Sorry for the late reply. I haven't added an option for that, but you can generate a new world without the mod, fly around for a bit so that the world generates, and then start the world with the mod, that way the world is already generated and the asphalt only spawns in areas that you haven't visited yet.
is there any idea why some of my traffic lights are out of sync they are either all red or showing red and green at the same time on one light
In reply to richyboi242:
It’s directional based, north/south will be on green, east/west will be on red, that way if you have a turn or junction, the lights will alternate. It’s a basic traffic system
In reply to twitchlucky:
here is an example of what i mean lol pics are on the link https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1jLQKoKRJS2LHdIngMo1BNXCpKOT_Vkgr?usp=sharing
is there a config? can you create ./ modify the config to allow someone to disable the road block and only allow the sign
love your mod, its by far best road mod for minecraft, one addition id love if you can add it is make 1 in 2 roads ie 1 hi 2 long for slop so that its not a 45 degree slope (similar to the way the sloped metal frames work in immersive engineering were if you place 1 slope its 45 degrees but if you put a second slope behind it it joins them a puts a more gentle slope on it)
also please please please upgrade it to 1.15
Are you updating it to 1.14.4?
In reply to Forge_User_20765937:
I plan to do so, I just don't have a lot of time for it atm, sorry!
In reply to derFl007:
Don't worry, great mod btw!!!!!!!!!!
Suggestion:
Add a book to see all the crafts
Add a T type of lines
And 'Half double line diagonal' please.
In reply to Forge_User_53887402:
Good ideas, one question tho: what do you mean by T type of lines?
Hey, I really love this mod. I am wondering when your next feature update will be? It's been almost year already and just curious if you been working on a big update for this mod but anyways keep up the great work.
Feature requests: More different types of traffic lights like left turn & right turn arrows and more road signs besides the construction signs. Also, make a discord server for your community for bug reports, suggestions\feedback, and beta builds of your mods.
In reply to AM9327:
Hey, yes i have been working on something bigger, unfortunately i didn't have a lot of time because of work and uni. Seeing that people are waiting for updates makes me really want to continue working on it, but I don't know how long it will be.
Thank you for the suggestions btw, i i have something big planned for traffic lights anyways, so that will be a nice addition. Also some more road signs are coming too. Though i want to limit myself to austrian road signs, because that's how i started and that's how it will continue. Only thing is, i might make some resource packs with signs of other countries too, so that everyone can enjoy the road signs they like most. I have to see how wella ones would work, but i assume that generally there shouldn't be that many more. About discord, thanks i will think about it. I'm currently collecting bug reports on GitHub and in other forums, to keep everything organized, but it's a good idea, thanks!
I'll keep you updated everywhere when the new update arrives (hopefully in the near future)
In reply to derFl007:
It's all good I understand and thanks for replying back to me. I like the idea you have with the road signs for different countries by using a resource pack. That will be very cool. Also, another good thing about having a discord server is, to keep your fans up to date on what's going on with your mods or yourself.
Good mod. Perfect with Ultimate Car Mod.
Update ?
omg...I've been pretty much witch hunting for the PERFECT road mod I need. And I've found it. Thank you so much for making this! :)
