Argon Cerberus Vanguard

Description
I follow the instructions provided in the Egosoft website to extract the ship models of their game X4 Foundations. After that, i simply follow the steps to convert the file so this can be used in Space Engine.

The ship is oversized on purpose. For some reason, if it is configured in a normal size, this makes dissappears the object when is viewed from the interior cameras, at least this is what i can experience when i tested the ship. If you like to put together one of the X4 ships in my workshop with another from other mods i suggest to change the size values in the .sss file inside the models folder of the ship, this can be done easily. By this way it is possible to experience a scene correct about sizes, at least for the eye... If you doesn't like to experience the object is dissappearing in the interior cameras and see from that cameras another modder ships, you must oversize those ships, not to downsize this ship. For sure it is possible a better solution to preserve true length values and interior cameras without bugs but i don't know it.

I really want to see spaceships with cockpits and interiors in the incredible Space Engine. And the X4 ships are ideal. Hope you enjoy this mod.

Hey I wanted to thank you again for your terrific ship add ons for space engine. I found two ships that do exactly what I want, which is keep starships exploring over a planet or moon for days just using autopilot hold altitude, two of the ships have successfully done this for 10+ days! The hold altitude correctly adjusts the hover engines to keep the ships in the air without any adjustments from me! They are the Argon Light Fighter 2 and the Cerberus Vanguard! I set up 8 cameras for each of them, besides the cockpit cameras I set up behind cameras for each direction (forward, backwards, left and right) from outside the ship. Thanks for these awesome ships!

Thank you, very good data... In fact, i did not try the solution you suggest... But some day i had a problem placing the ship in the correct coordinates... And i only could solve this using the ship editor... So, i'm sure your tip is in the right. Thank you very much. Perhaps i will do an update for my ships in this week, with your data.

Great ship !
About the size problem, as a VR user, it was a very big problem but i managed to find a solution and ... i find it ! I only changed the ship size with the ship's editor and changed the ship's length on the SSS file (to 110). Now tthe ship seem's to be correctly sized and didn't have any interior issues !
If you want my file content to solve this problem, tell me !
