@XBrain130 thanks for the fast reply. I will have a look into these programs. I see, i3dconverter is for 3d printing. my neighbor does 3d printing. perhabs he has that or similar software or I have to buy.
thanks for the help

@DerMitDemTrollTanzt, I extracted the contents of the .cat files with DoubleShadow's "X3 Editor 2", and then use "i3DConverter" to turn the .bob models into standard formats (unfortunately, the latter is a paid program)

@XBrain130 how did you export and converted the x3 ships in the first place? I wanna do paper models of some and for blender I need them in another file format than xsp. I do not seem to find a way

@Hemorrhoid, you just download it and its enabled as long as you use flight simulator mode

How do you enable the mod?
I'm new here, sorry

@Xbrain130 sick ty!!

@Vitao, nope, the only way to remove stations is deleting their code

@XBrain130 hey!! could you help me, i would like to know how to delete stations. I thought it was the same as deleting ships, but there's no option for it. Is there any way to delete?

@Zachary, its done like this:

Object "[station name]"
{
Type "Spacecraft"
Model "[address of the craft's .sss file within the addons folder]"
ParentBody "[orbited planet]"

Orbit
{
[orbital parameters]
}
}

I've been looking around online trying to find a guide on how to script stations so they remain in orbit like you've done in this mod. Do you know where I could find any examples or guides?

it'd be awesome if you made a mod adding the ships from the Xtra ship pack

@TokiMerr, just select the ship in the list and click "delete"?

How do I delete the ships?

please help

aye

@Uncle Sloppy, thats intended, it has no engines in the original game, implying it was only meant to move around with the Jumpdrive only, but I guess I could give it a low dreadnought-level speed

The Kha'ak planet killer can't move, even though it's a starship

@Uncle Sloppy, maybe, I now have so many that Im not sure which I should choose. For now I decided to focus the next update on more stations

are you still adding ships?

The new ships dont have Textures

that did it, thanks

Retsof, ah I see, the issue here is that stations will only render if you already entered the system. That means you have to travel to another destination in the Alpha Centauri system to see the stations of the Argon sector. I have no idea whats the cause of this, if its because of SE or of this mod

Yes I am in flight sim mode. The effected ships actually are at sol instead of proxima, my bad. I'm guessing it is the 000 point in the game? note that they show no location.

Also I have redownloaded the mod several times, mostly to clear out my early attempts at placing my own stations.

Retsof, are you in Planetarium mode? Stations will show up only in Flight Sim mode

The stations outside of Sol do not work. you just zoom in to a blank piece of space near Proxima.

I think you should add controllable versions of stations

I'm having a kick for Terran Conflict right now so this is absolutely amazing for me. Now I can free my Kestrel from the confines of the Gate Network!

I'd rather not script it, I'd rather fly it. I'm suggesting making a separate craft file that's flyable.

@cosby714 the issue is that dynamic objects cannot be placed in stable orbits at all, speeding up time often sends ships careening around and easily ruins your careful placements. And either way, you can already place stations and such around other worlds by scripting (just like I did), if you look into my stations scripts you'll see that it's fairly easy to do and requires very little coding. If you need help understanding it I can teach you.

So, I noticed some stations, when they spawn in, they just show up in the other category. I also saw the comment saying they can only be static or dynamic, could you add in versions that aren't static objects so they can be positioned and flown? I'd very much like to place my own gates and xenon stations, would be fun to put them around a world myself.

I noticed you added the Kha'ak corvette and destroyer, lovely ships.

Alright good to know, thank you for pointing that out. Love the mod, never played the X series.

Prince Solstice, unfortunately those are all program's issues that I can't do anything about, the player-spawned stations not working was brought up in a older comment too. For now if you want to dock to stations you pretty much have to use the "dock instantly" button

not the xenon mining plant but the matter/antimatter mining plant and the orbital defense platform is the orbital defense station. I forgot to mention, the jitter is caused by the homeworld mod, so forgive me for not mentioning it.

Its the simulator mode always, just love flying these ships! Something else I've also noticed was stations already placed tend to give false telemetry (trying to slow down to dock but end up getting farther away) making docking a very tedious task. On top of this, ships and stations are jittery (especially bigger ships and stations) making it hard to dock. Yes I can see some of the stations that have already been placed, like the Terran shipyard, Trans-orbital gates, Xenon mining plant, and the Orbital defense platform. The original problem was I couldn't see the other stations and had trouble spawning in stations. Stations that I spawned in would be invisible, and when I restarted the game, they would disappear. Ships sometimes spawn with zero velocity, regardless of the orbiting ship your focused on. That's all I have for you, sorry for the long list but I'd rather you see all the problems then just some.

big sad

Uncle Sloppy, unfortunately I can't seem to figure out how to export XR models yet,

Prince Solstice, is this issue in Planetarium Mode, Simulator Mode, or both? I have had the same problem lately in Planetarium Mode only, but I'm not sure if it's a bug of the program itself or something from the stations' files

Do the stations work on version 0.990? I noticed some of the stations are invisible to me.

Could you add some ships from X: Rebirth?
I quite like the designs of the Teladi ships

Uncle Sloppy, absolutely, I already have some ready, I have just been distracted by other personal projects lately

Are you planning on adding new ships?

Ah, fair enough. Thanks for answering.

Retsof, no, because almost every texture is reused across many points of a given craft's hull, not to mention many craft of the same race, so there's no way to make accurate "baked reflections".

Is it possible to bake in some reflected lighting on the textures? It just looks wrong to have a giant glowy bit not cast any light onto the hull next to it.

np
lovely mod btw

Uncle Sloppy, thank you for reporting it, it was a simple oversight so it'll be fixed in the next update.

The kyoto is invisible except for a few parts.
shame, it's my favorite ship

grazie per l'invito come collaboratore :-)

thank you

HatedTong, that is an issue with SpaceEngine itself. Spacecraft can be marked as "staticgame" or "controllablegame": the former can be put into scripted orbits, the other can be flown by the player. The same item cannot do both, yet 'static' craft still appear in the build menu despite behaving as you observed. I can't do anything about that.

When I build a gate(Ancient,Terran or Broken) or a trans-orbital accelerator, they are invisible , they appear in Other ships not in My Ships, and I can't control them
