Sorry about the delay, I was without a computer for awile because my power supply went up in smoke and flames.
Okay, for starters, on the zip file you should have a Liger_Dreadnought.ini and a Liger_Dreadnought.imd. The Imd file goes inside the Object folder, the INI file goes inside the TEXTURE\Interface\Carcass\Slots folder.
Then you need to add or modify a carcass entry in the Carcasses.xml file.
<BigShip name="Mothership_Lion_mk2a_vks">
<short_name>#M_Name_Mothership_LionMk2</short_name>
<hint>#M_Hint_Mothership_LionMk2</hint>

</BigShip>
After that, you will need to add an entry in Shipdescriptions.xml, you can change the TRGK3s to any GK Turret you like, just as long as you have a valid GK Turret you should be fine.
<ShipDescription name="Mothership_Liger">
<carcass>Mothership_Lion_mk2a_vks</carcass>
<module>TRGK3</module>
<module>TRGK3</module>
</ShipDescription>
Afterwards, you will have to go to the quest file that you want the ship, and replace the mothership in that quest file with Mothership_Liger. You may have to go through the quest file a bit just in case, as sometimes quests may run a ship check on your mothership.
