The balanced version reduce counts of turrets and shields to compare with X4 carriers. So no XL (overpowered) weapon in balanced version.
so if i understand this right it has no mane better weapons like a colossus right
You can see the weaponts and shields on nexus screenshots for both versions to compare.
The XL turret is available in battleship version only.

So I decided to give the Taranis a shot, one, because I managed to get the L and XL engines from XR into the game with mostly working effects. I also figured out how to use the vanilla XR hardpoint info and convert it for use in X4, so I made a Taranis with the mostly original hardpoint locations.
Here's the engines:

Thank you again, will integrate it in the next version.

Don't have any other possibilities, because any change on a collision file or complete new ones result in a X4 crash yet.

What do you mean with "hardpoint locations"?
At the beginning, i ported the XR engines with the Taranis, but i didn't like it. The Engine effect looks nice, but i liked the X4 ones more. A combinated variant would awesome, the bluish glare of XR and the thrust effects of X4.

By hard points, I meant where all the turrets, shields and docks go. XR has all the rotations inverted for the turrets and shields and I wanted to try and make the ported ships more “true” to the originals. At some point I might try and give the XR turrets another shot, at least just the plasma jet and plasma/ma turrets. But for now I think the over-sized L turrets will do since they mostly fit in the original spots.
In addition I also made an invisible launch tubes and XS dock with higher launch speeds. Fighters don’t use the launch tubes yet, but combat/mining drones do, so I put some of those on the Sul and mining ships that way they launch out of the hangers with no issues. At some point I want to see if the XR small dock can be converted into some kind of launch tube as well.
For the engines, I think adding the X4 engines effects will be possible, the engines that I converted use the X4 boost effect. I’m not sure how the regular engine effect will look though, if it will line up correctly. I got the XR engine effects to grow and shrink with the throttle speed, but the actual flame effects aren’t animated, so that is a downside. I also removed the lens effect glow because it’s a bit much.

Ah ok, but you should know, that Ojump is porting the L and XL ships from XR. His intention is to place all turrets/shields to the originals spots too.
Sounds good with the launch tubes, i hope the will fix this for fighters.
The animations are stored in the ANI file and i don't have any clue how to generate these files. So if you want to combine XR and X4 animiations in one xml, you have to generate a new ani file.

You Sir, are great! Thank you for your hard work.
Would it be possible to also add some M sized ships? they dont need to have ship hangars if that would look silly btw... but the M sized combat ships look to brick-like in my opinion

M and S size ships are really difficult to build at the moment. But who knows the future.

Atm the M class ships are hard to make I don't know why and I don't know why devs make it that hard to make M class

any custom ship is hard to make because we cant really edit collision meshes without crashing the game. thats why we only got XR ports right now. also S and M ships have animations while docking which L and XL ships dont have.
