Ship art models?

[Jorgen_CAB]

Are there any way to get access to the ship models of the game so you can add/modify weapon mounts that you can't modify in the XML files?

of course, install Stride, unpack the bundles then load them ships up..
The devs used Autodesk Maya 2020 but Blender should work I guess

There is a video in Distant Wolrds 2/Manuals/DW2 - Ship Modding Tutorial

Thanks... I have both Stride and Blender installed as I understood you need them both to do it... but did not really know how to get the actual models.

The bundle unpack tool is pinned in a topic on Discord
Not sure if Stride would also allow for unpacking .

I managed to download and extract some of the files in a bundle... but to be honest I have no idea to actually get them into for example Blender. I assumed there would be some fbx files there but there are none... but of course i could rename some and see what happens.
