Hey guys! Where does the game store the sprites and masks of ships' wrecks? I'd like to make dead ships alive (in a new mod idea called The Fallen Road).

OR if anyone has 3D models of ALL the vanilla ships, in .blend format, I can simply use the Fracture plugin on it for mor custom appearance :)

The wrecks aren't seperate images, they're actually more like overlays. Looking in the source, you can find MediumDamage.jpg and LargeDamage.jpg, which are put on to the image after it is destroyed. But, there's only one facing for it - it wouldn't rotate with the model.

Your options are probably either to rotate the damage and make an overlay that rotates with the ship, or download the Truespace models and convert them to .dae files, which can be imported to Blender.

101 is the newer version, which seems to have disappeared completely. Fortunately, most of what you want will already be in 100.
