Create: Train Perspective

by der_fruhling

With Create: Train Perspective, a player riding a Create train sees the camera turn with the track instead of holding one direction, and the view leans and rolls on slopes.

What it does

The mod changes how the camera behaves while the player is seated on a train. Create normally keeps the view fixed as the train curves, which makes the rider feel as if they are the one turning. Here the camera follows the train being ridden, and the player is also tilted with lean and roll when the train climbs or descends a slope.

Recent Create releases already rotate the camera with trains, and the two behaviors clash. Users on those versions need to turn off Rotate when seated in Create's client config, though newer builds of this mod do that automatically. The mod also works while standing on a train, which the author describes as experimental and unsafe. It may cause motion sickness.

Required dependencies are Architectury API, Create and Create Fabric, with Fabric API also needed on Fabric and Quilt. Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are optional. Players add it to their own game, and a server needs no copy. It is released under the MIT License and is open source. Files cover 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with the latest file, 1.1.1 for 1.20.1, dated 2026-06-08. The mod was first published on 2024-02-17 and last updated on 2026-06-08.

Key features

  1. Camera follows the train

    The view turns with the train the player is riding, rather than staying fixed when the track curves.

  2. Lean on slopes

    The player's view leans while the train is on a slope, adding a sense of motion.

  3. Roll on slopes

    Roll is applied to the view when the train goes up or down a slope.

  4. Standing on a train

    The effect also applies while the player stands on a train, an experimental feature the author notes can be unsafe.

Use cases

Riding Create trains

Players who ride Create trains through a world can use the turning and tilting to feel the track more directly.

Who it’s for: Players who ride Create trains in single-player or on a multiplayer server. Because the environment is client-side only, server owners do not need to install it.

Questions

Does Create: Train Perspective need to be installed on a server?

No. It is installed on the player's side alone, so servers need nothing.

Why does the camera rotate differently from Create's default?

Recent Create releases add a rotate-when-seated option that clashes with this mod. Newer builds of this mod turn it off automatically, while older builds require disabling it in Create's client config.

Which loaders and game versions does the mod support?

It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.20.1 and 1.21.1.

What the author says

Create 0.5.1.g introduced a default option that turns the camera with trains. This mod adds leaning and roll functions, which Create has not (yet) added, but the built-in functionality conflicts with this mod. To continue using this mod as normal, disable "Rotate when seated" in Create's client config. Version…
