For those mentioning this mod no longer working, there is another mod now available on Nexus with options for different station configurations. I haven't tested it fully, but it was just released in Aug '24, so I'm guessing it is probably fully compatible with 7.x. Also has options for some different designs, textures, and asteroid/anomaly presence.

This mod don't work now. The attach point you get with out mod works but no other points work, even with new game

Every attach point except for 3 and 5 are misaligned, as are the spires save for 1's. The lettering is also misaligned for 1 and 2. 4 and 6 and incomplete ring sections. Do you know what program can be used to edit the model itself so I can fix this?

This is a great MOD when you can remove that damn asteroid.
Now...
Are you working on or is there any chance you can work on a MOD that removes that totally, infuriating and 100% annoying, water born maggot called Boso Ta?
The times I've been in a conversation with someone of just pressed "F" to open a door or interact with something and BANG! Boso Ta snuck in and now I'll have to chat to the maggot for the next 5 mins while my ships getting pounded by Xenon.

I support Yare Yare's request.

Can you please make a symmetrical version of this? It would like to create a public blueprint for this model but if you try to connect the docking points together in the middle you will notice that they are slightly off, which causes clipping of modules.

Would be great if you updated the collision meshes on the base.

Hi Dumpshock,

Can you please look at the 6.0 compatibilty? The log file shows a lot of collision errors.
I want to use this mod again. :-)

I assume you can use the existing hull-, mesh- and collision files of the vanilla headquarter folder landmarks_player_hq_01_research_data.

In my tests, I have not seen any issues using this with the 6.0 release.

I would like to get this mod. Will you please update it for 6.0?

Looks like an update is needed due to the new collision

can i use this in 6.0 or is the rock part of some story in the boron plot ?

Just curious: are there any plans to redo the collision model for this mod to bring it in line with the new collision models in 6.0?

As an update to the below, I got a chance to test this with the latest 6.0 Beta 2 and experienced no issues with crashing or the like that appeared related to this mod.

6.0 Beta 1 did have reports on the Egosoft Beta forums of crashes related to the HQ and were directly tied to the Beta itself, supposedly fixed in Beta 2.

Best not use use with the 6.0 Beta then.

Haven't had a chance to look, but considering the number of changes coming down the pipe, doesn't surprise me.

I will take a look at it when I get a chance, but I would not expect an update for the beta branch.

This is causing crashes on the 6.0 beta

Hello, I have the problem that I always get my game hanging at the same point, I take it at the point where Borone escapes from the staion and I have to defend the ship because the game hangs up, is there a possibility that this won't happen or some other solution

Is it possible to swap the 6 Km doughnut with a copy of an admin center or would it get too glitchy with relocating the lab, office and other rooms?

Wouldn't it be fun to have a version with an Space Anomaly in the place where the big rock used to be? It would even fit the lore IMHO

The last time I played with it with the asteroid, the AI had a very bad habit of flying into the asteroid and getting stuck in there while you were in sector. Besides visual, removing the asteroid prevented this from happening.

There may have been improvements since then to fix that issue, but can't confirm for sure as I usually play with it removed.

Besides the visual look...does removing the asteroid do anything else?

Perfect, thank you so much!

Yes.

Does this work on an on-going save?

@Walker
This is the PlayerHQ and you can get it from scanning stations with option 2 in your ship. You should find a signal and eventually will get the correct one that will start that quest line. The PHQ will also let you do research for teleportation, stealing of station blueprints, and modifications for your ships.

This isn't a blueprint that you can purchase. It's a modification for the player HQ that you can acquire through playing through the story missions.

If you do not have it yet, start looking through any story missions that you may not have done yet.

hmmm maybe I just have not bought it yet? I thought I bought all the blue prints already. Where do I get it?

@Walker - What needs to be updated? Are you experiencing an error? Please elaborate.
I did not find any issues during the Beta or post update that showed there to be an problem.

This mod needs to be updated, if you can please.

Are the module connection points aligned in this version? i hate how the vanilla one is slanted

Is there a possibility of you aligning the model's two interior spurs and their module connector point's or is this not possible?

Hard to say. Are you getting any logs generated?

You could also try to start the game in Debug mode. That will force a log to be generated live. Then just perform the action you're having issues with, then check the log to see what it says.

There should be instructions for enabling it over on the Egosoft forums (add -logfile debuglog.txt as a startup parameter), or there's a .bat on the forums that you could get that makes it a bit easier.

Whelp, doesn't appear to be this mod. Is there any way to determine what mod is causing it?

I'm testing now to make sure, but I think that this may be breaking when loading blueprints.

Yeah, Terran reskin would be nice.

Possibly, but a bit beyond the scope of what this is for now?

All of the assets used as far as I can tell are slightly modified stock Egosoft X4 assets.

All I'm doing is trying to maintain the original mod while doing small improvements and keeping it updated as updates come out.

Also, for those interested, I am working on a version that includes the asteroid. Just doing some testing to make sure I haven't broken anything. Hope to have it out in the next day or two.

Is there a way to reskin the Hq to fit in with the new terran stations ?

Pushed an update to fix some log file spam I noticed related to bad LOD calls.

Also, uploaded to the Nexus for those who have requested it.

您好，尊敬的作者。虽然不清楚你是否能正确翻译我使用的语言，但我发现了一个小问题，或者说是提出一个小建议。
我发现原版的HQ似乎并不是正对着规划边界的，我在你的MOD里也发现了并不是正对，请问是否能做些小调整呢？这样就可以进行较为完美的布局方案了。

Two questions: 1) Is there a version with the Asteroid in the middle too?
2) Does this work with already existing PHQ builds, or only with new games?

Ever consider doing a REALLY crazy PHQ project? Like replacing the PHQ with a ship (Carrier/Flagship).. Could relocate Mr. Boron Man and the research stuff to it piggy-backing on the "More Ship Rooms" mod.

Any chance of a Nexus upload for non-steam players?

Glad to hear it seems to be still working. I haven't had a chance yet to jump in and test.

@luisedgm, jup it works to me

Is this working on 4.0 with CoH?

Hi simplicity actually I've noticed this weird angle on the vanilla HQ too.

Please upload this mod to NexusMods

Apparently the PHQ scientist quest not advancing when you dock is some weird bug going on even in vanilla... Workaround is to simply visit the science lab on the station and the quest will continue as normal. (I've deleted my earlier comment since it was not caused by this mod).

I noticed things were a little off when I placed a 3 large dock onto the station, it was on an angle from the plot square, but it didn't worry me in the least as unless you are in the plot screen you would never know.. :) Pic to show - https://i.imgur.com/PFuzP8U.jpg
I figured you were good enough to do this for us I wasn't going to moan about things not being absolutely perfect :) :)

@Mav - This was pretty much a 1:1 port and I don't really have much intent to change the layout of the ring. My goal was to update it to use a patch method that would attempt to be more compatible with future updates. There are more than a few things that are off center. From what I saw, most of it is pieces that were stitched together on a coordinates grid defined in the xml. Going through and fixing that really wasn't very much in the scope of me getting it back up and running.

As for the issue with the quest, I haven't played in a bit. Was there an update recently? The last time I tested, it seemed to work okay.
