This pack updates CC: Tweaked network cables with custom connection arms and core junction blocks. Plan your cable runs around that look.
Laying a cable network to inspect the models
1. Place two or more Computers a few blocks apart.
2. Attach a Modem to each one.
3. Run Network Cables between the modems.
4. Look at a straight section. You'll see the connecting arms running between cable pieces.
5. Add a branch so a cable splits in more than one direction. The joining point shows the core junction block, which is where the new design is most visible.
Making it look intentional
- Keep straight runs straight. The connection arms read as clean mechanical piping when cables run in lines along walls or ceilings.
- Put junctions where you can see them. The core blocks make good visual anchors. Place splits at eye level near your computers instead of hiding them behind blocks.
- Match the casings. Run cables alongside Create shafts and brass or copper builds so the network blends in with your machinery.
- Watch it work. Once the computers are on, look over the network. Network components display moving texture frames while active, which helps you see which parts of a long run are in use.
If cables show the old style while computers show the new one, another resource pack may be overriding the cable textures. Move ComputerCreate Model higher in your Selected list.
