Ever want to use a Dreadlord Hull, or some other race's hull as your own, or even just a different hull than the size you picked allows? Now you can! KHSM adds a 'blank' hull of each size (simply a hardpoint and nothing else), and makes ALL ship hulls in the game into jewelry. So now you can have any hull design you like, add hulls upon hulls as jewelry, or even create a ship ENTIRELY out of jewelry with no hull at all!

READ THE INCLUDED README BEFORE USING!

Now updated and improved for Dark Avatar!

You can, but it won't be pleasant to do since the files need renamed also.

Crud...I don't think I have that much patience.

Woo Hoo...success!

I don't know why, but I ditched the whole thing again and reinstalled it...I ended up running the batch twice and BOOM I have it all now. Sweetness.

Awesome mod, Kryo...millions of kudos just for my new ability to make squadrons and battlegroups rather than single ships.

This is by far one of the best mods for the game, hands down!

Note: -

If you are installing this for the first time please note that you may have to run the included batch file twice. I have tested this a couple of times now and for some reason on windows 7 64bit it doesn't take the first time but does on the second.

This may not be the case on all machines so please take this as a possible fix if you are having trouble getting the mod to work.

Been using this mod since it first came out and cant see playing the game without it now

I modified the batch file for GalCiv2Ult users like me and got it to work on my machine. Are you interested in the batch file?

Hello there, first things first I have to say that this mod is AWESOME, you have done a great job on this kryo . . . Now that I've said that, I have to ask, can/does the AI use these hulls (as in the the jewelry ones) when "auto" designing their ships? Also it seems that the .bat file only copies certain models as it cannot find the path for others (I have the ultimate edition package, using the TA version of the mod).
