Hi all, I have a question in regards to modding: is it possible to import new ship models made from scratch and have them functioning properly in a mod? I have a major faction mod I've been working on and I'd love to make my own ship models that will fit the theme of the faction instead of reusing pre-existing models. I want to know if this would work at all before I waste my time making and texturing models that won't even function. I could probably test this myself but I'd like to hear the input of the devs and community too.

It isn't possible to make models, but you can retexture. However, you will have to retexture another faction's ships, meaning both their version of their ship, and your major factions duplicate of their ship will have to have the same texture.

That is quite a shame. United Empire ships will have to do then.
