No need. I uploaded the models and textures to mediafire anyway, so you can just grab them from there (same link as before).
NOTE: Texture name is changed, just apply the "new" texture to the model.
I got 3D Max 8, but the plugin isn't working. Getting errors.
EDIT:
Also, does anyone know how the game calculates manouverability?
the number in the carcasses files and the number on the ship screen...they do not correlate
manurability and steering power are two stats, but I can't figure out how they work together
