How do I start building curved tracks?
Craft 
Track Ties and place one on any solid block, then right-click it to rotate the dark arrows in your desired travel direction. Place a second 
Track Ties block at your endpoint, hold a Track item, click the first tie, then click the second tie to connect them. Send a vanilla minecart down normal rails into the first tie block to begin the ride.

Make sure the Track Ties blocks are properly connected using the /splinecart connect command or by holding Track and clicking both ties in order. Verify that the dark arrows on your first tie point in the direction the minecart is traveling from the vanilla rails.

Use 
Chain Drive Track instead of standard Track for steep inclines—this powered track segment pulls minecarts upward along slopes that would otherwise be too steep. Connect Chain Drive Track between two Track Ties blocks just like normal curved track.

Yes, use 
Magnetic Track segments and control them with redstone signals—higher redstone power levels boost speed, while lower levels brake the cart. Place Magnetic Track between your Track Ties blocks wherever you want speed control.

No, use the /splinecart supports command to set the mode to 'auto' and the mod will automatically place wooden fence or iron bar supports beneath elevated track segments. You can also set it to 'wood', 'metal', or 'none' depending on your preference.

Run the command /splinecartc config rotate_camera to toggle camera rotation off, which will keep your view steady during fast rides while still showing the curved track movement.
track movement.Can I connect my curved tracks directly to vanilla minecart rails?
Yes, that's a core feature—minecarts move seamlessly from vanilla rails onto your curved track sections without stopping, so you can integrate Velvet Rail Flow tracks into existing rail networks.

All Track Ties, Track, Chain Drive Track, and Magnetic Track recipes are in the Redstone creative tab and are fully craftable in survival mode—check your crafting menu under that tab for the exact recipes.

Yes, use the /splinecart build path command to create a continuous path of spline tracks, or use /splinecart build line for a straight section between two points.
Do curved tracks work with other mods or vanilla features?
Curved tracks connect directly to vanilla minecart rails and work with standard Minecraft minecarts, making them compatible with most modpacks; however, test with redstone-heavy setups since Magnetic Track uses redstone signals for speed control.
