10 POINTS TO WHOEVER BUILDS THE LIBERTY BSHIP

i was looking through the ship files and i noticed that the liberty battleship has no /cmp but all the .surs are there. i have looked through these folders hundreds of times and this is the first time i ever realized this

I and some guys are trying to crack the SUR format (maybe you have noticed it, the first sticky thread)
We have managed to convert sur files to a Milkshape Ascii file. So maybe, we can take a look on how the li_battleship should look like.

***EDIT***
ok, at the moment, no chance... there exists two completely different SUR formats. I just looked at it with the hex editor, the one from the li_battleship is the older one...
no converter avaiable, sorry

It's probably some junk DA left behind on accident, there is a lot of that lying around. It's like the mystical Corsair Freighter everyone was so intrigued with, unfortunately there must have been a change of heart during devlopment and all of the "Corsair" models are used by the pirates while the "Pirate" models are used by the Corsairs. Come to think of it the game does refer to the Dreadnought as a battleship (e.g. Battleship Missouri, Mississippi and Yukon). Might be something different but I won't hold my breath.

Thats because the liberty battleships IS the liberty dreadnaught.

You can find the file in C:\Freelancer\DATA\SHIPS\LIBERTY\LI_DREADNOUGHT\li_dreadnought.cmp
