> Update v1.6 is now available <
This update brings this mod to the current version only -- no changes were made. I am working on covering the pirate dreadnaught, and that will be released in a future updated. Soon.
So, it goes without saying, the current version does not include pirate freighters.
NOTE: For those who use fSails - I've posted a LOD fix in the optional DL's section. This allows you to see all of your Sails on large Capital Freighters clearly - even ones far away.
Version info (there are 5 versions of this mod):
Normal is the original, what I built upon and will continue to do so going forward. It is in the middle as far as glossiness.
Super Metal (SMetal) is fully metallic and glossy.
Note: some Freighters will be more of a titanium instead of chrome when selecting white, & these Freighters will also be the ones that color gold & brown instead of red & dark red. These are less common, but still keep that in mind. The current version can be pretty dark in some systems. New version will be more visible.

Super Shine (SS) is almost as glossy as you could possibly get within the game. Note that, in some systems, it can be very shiny. - almost mirror-esque (see photos). Also, with Dud's Sky - Colors, gloss is very much intensified. If you are running stock or close to, or have no mods that impact how space looks, you'll find it to be a lot less intense than in the photos. Basically, if there's nothing around to reflect, it won't.
Full Matte (FM) There may be some shine depending on the system, but for the most part, it is completely matte. Also, only areas that are painted are actually matte. If it changes color when you switch colors, then it's painted.
Squared version's textures are slightly raised and defined around all four sides - hence why I named it "squared." Looks cool and provides a different look from the other versions, which are more streamlined and smoother. It has the same shine / gloss level as the normal version of this mod.
Fully compatible with latest version 5.28 (WORLDS) including add-ons)

Super Metal (SMetal) is fully metallic and glossy.
- For gold, select yellow, orange, or red (red is only available with certain Capital Freighters)
- For chrome, select white or gray
