PLEASE IF YOU WANT TO USE THE X:REBIRTH SHIP MODELS, YOU SHOULD OWN X:REBIRTH
The X:R Ship Pack includes 28 ships from X:Rebirth (or ships, built up by X:R parts). Some of the imported ships have different roles or names than in X:Rebirth.
Argons/Antigone:
- Arawn Carrier

All ships should be balanced to standard X4 balancing EXCEPT that the ships do have more turrets than the average X4 ship of the same class. To compensate the firepower the ships do have less Health and/or are more expensive.
- The AI should build all ships as well.
- All ships need some license to be built.
Known Bug
- When you move on a dock of a new ship, the stairways to the door is visually blocked by a texture of the ship. But you can move through it without a problem. This can only be fixed by changing the model itself and would take a lot of time, so I think I will let it as it is. Alternatvely press shift + D and select the cockpit or ship you want to go.
I highly suggest to download the compatible improved X Rebirth texture pack from here to make the ships look even better:

if you like better balancing of X4 I suggest VRO mod:
viewtopic.php?f=181&t=415713
and the SR Ship Pack VRO submod for a VRO balance of the ships in this mod:
viewtopic.php?f=181&t=423276
and on top of these, I also suggest my Weapon Pack mod which works pretty well with VRO:

Changelog
2.0.1
- Some jobs for new battleships and carriers were deactivated forever while they should activate after 100/200 in game hours
- Improved texture colors on Event Horizon
- Slightly inreased chances for AI ships to use their standard paint jobs with less colors (weight changed from 3 to 4 (vanilla is often 5 or 4))
- Added Korean language (thx to Merhaf)
- Updated Japanese language (thx to Arkblade)
- Replaced Shark cockpit position to the front
- Fixed texture flickering on Sucellus
- Changed many textures to look better on default color schemes
- Improved paintjob colors on Millenium and Sanahar
- Renamed Red Knight to Alpha-Omega
- Note: I added paintmods for nearly all ships. This means that the default color schemes of the ships have been changed and in general look not as good as before (with default paint jobs).
However with the right paintjob the ships can look more beautyful. I suggest using the "Paintjobs For Sale" mod to color your ships if you are unhappy with the standard painting. - Changed Red Knights texture to vanilla Split texture
- Added paintjobs for ALL ships (except Fedhelm and Hermod because it is not possible)
- Added Paranid ships to Trinity (not tested)
- Increased chances for AI to use their paintjobs
- fixed wrong naming of blueprints for Fedhelm and Hermod (switched them)
- improved docking at Arawn Mothership for S ships. Also added missing S-docks (I removed them in earlier versions because ships could get stuck in docking procedure which is now fixed *hopefully*)
- lowered amount of Xenon fighters for escort groups of frigates (from 10 to 6) and fighter patrols (from 6 to 5)
- fixed split Red Knight battleship buyable from every race if you dont own Split Vendetta DLC to prevent players to build/buy it (if you have built/bought it already and cant move it you need to destroy it or reload)
- added Red Knights to fallen split empire (for DeadAir Mods)
- fixed floating modules on Executioner
- repositioned docks on Red Knight so the teleport panel is better visible
- added japanese language (thx to Arkblade)
- merged XRebirth high detailed textures into the mod (so no need to use the XRebirth mod for this anymore which makes sense because its only available on Nexus and who knows for how long. Credits go to: snackynak)
- fixed wrong bridge type for Red Knight
- slightly repositioned Erebos and Executioners bridges
- reduced spawn chances for Arawns and Erebos
- fixed positions of cockpits for Kraken and Scylla
- repositioned many modules including all docks on Scaldis
- added missing shield for front turret on Scaldis
- fixed wrong bridge on Erebos and Executioner

- fixed drone waypoints for Arawn, Taranis, Sanahar, Erebos, Lyranea
- added german translation (thanks to Le Leon, also for name suggestions)
- fixed a bug which destroyed all battleship jobs in combination with VRO mod
- reduced battleship generation jobs at universe start per faction. Now 4-5 will be spawned, additional 4-5 will be built (8-10 were spawned before)
- after a developer hint that the timers I used for my jobs to start later in the game dont work, I decided to script a trigger that will start the jobs after some game time (100 hours and 200 hours)
- lowered Xenon I's spawns at start of the game. They will start building more I's after 100 hours and after 200 hours even more
- fixed a bug that court (split faction) jobs spawned at the start of the game while they should be supressed by some story script - this could result in a destruction of the first fleet without the player doing anything
- Red Knight is now a Split battleship (if you dont own Vendetta you should not be able to buy it anymore)
- added split jobs for battleship production (if you dont own Vendetta you should not see any more Red Knights beeing built by Paranid)

- added medium shield to Sharks bottom turret group
- added turret group with 3 turrets to Shark destroyer
- rotated front weapons of Devastator to match its visual better

- slightly increased speed of Titurel

- increased crew numbers of XL freighters to be more like vanilla crew numbers for transports

Thanks to all who helped me to bring these ships into the game (thx for the nigh session BrummBear
and thx to you sco1981 for letting me take parts of your already imported ships and thx to UniTrader for his build animation script fix and thx to mewosmith for his support as well as SirFrancisDrake for helping me). DISCLAIMER:
The ship models are ported from X: Rebirth. I have not created them. The rights belong to Egosoft.
. But I will change this for the next version then because in general you are right. Mods should be compatible even it is unlikely that people will use both.
