    Gotcha. I'll try to remain as faithful as possible to the original then. Hopefully I can find more pictures of it's interior. I might have to fire up KoTOR and play through it for uh, research purposes. Prolly ought to do that before doing any further work in case I need to do an overhaul.

    Hehe, Ebon Hawk was a request, not a demand. If you think you'd have more fun and a free'r hand with the modded Dynamic, there's nothing to say you shouldn't do that one first / instead. Don't feel obligated on my account.

    No worries. I took it as a friendly suggestion and it was a good one. Plus I wouldn't have taken the job if I didn't think I'd enjoy it and it's turning out to be an interesting challenge. Hoping I left myself enough wiggle room to accommodate any changes. I might have to scale it up a bit. Hopefully not. I'm definitely going to give that modded Dynamic a try at some point though. :)

    I was pressing the 'N' key and noticed 'Selection' and stuff about move. scale and rotate and a bunch of other stuff I can barely see that appear to be advanced building tools. I'm not an advanced builder, but I would still like to know how to use those tools.

    Are there instructions somewhere?

    Project Ebon Hawk: Research complete. Screenshots taken. Aaaaaand it turns out I made it too small. /sigh

    Time to rectify that.
    *wheels Ebon Hawk hull into the garage and orders the droids to get to work*

    A little slice and dice here, a hull lift there......

    *horrible grinding and tearing noises can be heard*

    Increased the width, length, and height. It's 2-3 blocks bigger in all respects. Looks a little off to me but maybe that's because I widened the central cockpit/corridor. Honestly to match the interior of the Ebon Hawk it should have been wider still but that would have looked a little too big from the outside. The insides are a complete mess after that hack job I did on it.

    *sends the droids back in*
    *more grinding and tearing noises can be heard*

    I need more ramp sizes plz thx. And will someone please please make them easier to place. And round doors. And maybe some round corridor pieces to match.

    I finally got around to pondering a Updated Starter SV that's not just a blob of Devices glued together & while doing so, noticed this...:

    Off and on for the past week I have been reworking my Huntress-X SV. For me Huntress-X is a ship that I use quite often and really is a product of how I play the game. This of course lets me see more of its flaws and better ways to improve it. Here are some screenshots to give you some insight to that rework.

    I dared to touch/mod the SV prefab Tier4 which is based on Kieve's Aetheria. Only thing is that, even though I removed the SV components and replaced with CV type ones, and used commands to replace the steel blocks from SV to CV, the blueprint remains red in library...:(

    The project is now halted until I figure out what I am obviously missing. Forgive me Kieve.

    SUCCESS!!!:cool: 2018-04-11.png

    Thanks to @LiftPizzas Empyrion Academy, I was able to stretch Achilles an additional 14 m, which was the reason for earlier query.

    It took a number of tries along with a similar number of re-viewings of the video. This was just practice on an older save-game. Next comes Achilles Mkll !

    my thanks again to LiftPizzas for his video and to @michaelhartman89 for directing me to it. Thank you.:)

    Those I replaced them by hand, one by one. I think so. Here she is, current state.

    I took a look at this. I removed the glass canopy all around the upper bridge/cockpit area and the glass railings on the interior ramps leading up to it. Blueprint is no longer red. Replace those and it looks like you should be good to go.
