Reskins belts with a dark rubbery theme!
Give your belts a sleek dark look with this mod. I took the time to make it compatible with factorio 2.0 and space age!
The changes are cosmetic only - belt recipes and other properties are not changed.
Originally built by Deadlock989 for Industrial Revolution 3 (rip), the mod was marked as deprecated, and forgotten...
But thanks to stubborn appreciation, it's back now!
Customizable!
Mod settings let you customize how your belts look! Current options include:
- Arrows: tier-based arrows ; slow belt arrows for all ; fast belt arrows for all ; no arrows
- Side rails: vanilla steel for all ; alternate material bases (IR3 metals + tungsten) ; colored rails (perfect for arrowless belts)
- Glowing arrows and Glowing belt rails (colored belt rails only). Inspired by Belt Glow. Can be toggled on/off separately as you prefer.
More customization options (thick line, thin line...) to come later.
We're open to ideas for more customizability options!
Please let me know if any bug shows up!
Warning: This mod uses layers for belt animations and only high resolution spritesheets are provided. It is not recommended if you have a PC that struggles to render the vanilla game.
Compatibility
Compatibility with modded belt types may be added as requested. (Note: belts with a throughput of >60 items/s use the Turbo belt's animation as default.)
- Advanced Belts: Advanced, Elite and Hyper belts added
- Bob's Logistics: Bob's basic (alt base: iron), Bob's turbo and Bob's ultimate belts added
- Matt's Logistics: Ultra fast, Extreme fast, Ultra express, Extreme express and Ultimate belts added
- Lignumis: Wood belts added (alt base: wood)
- Castra: Military belts added (alt base: nickel)
- Space Exploration: Space belts added. Deep space belts remain untouched.
- Krastorio 2 (Spaced Out): Advanced belts (if enabled) and Superior belts added (alt base: tungsten, to mimick immersite).
WIP features and ideas
These are features that have yet to be coded and/or added. Please feel free to suggest more in the discussion page!
- Thick lines and thin lines from arrowless belts (In the works)
- Thicker arrow plates for turbo belts animation only. (In the works)
- Fix AAI Loaders icon sprites
More modded belt types I'm planning to add eventually, in no particular order (will be added if requested):
- Factorio+
- Exotic Space Industries
- Quantum Belts
- Slow Belts
- Wooden Logistics
- Uranium Logistics
- Pipebelts's steam belts, maybe
- 5Dim's mod - New Transport
- One More Tier
- More Belts

- Deadlock989: Original Black Rubber Belts mod for Factorio 1.1 creator. They made both the code and graphics, they also hold the CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license to the original mod. Please go check out their work! They used to make great mods before Factorio 2.0 came out, but they retired from modding when it released...
- Supershadow30 (me): Maintainer of this fork. I've made basically all the compatibility fixes for Space Age and other modded belts, and added extra customizability options (T4 arrow sprites, new alt base sprites, glow). These changes should count as fair use in regards to Deadlock's CC license (I hope).
