Aha! My secret is out! ;) The Shu is in fact a reskin of the Zenith with new table entry and interface (check out the credits).  I thought it looked more like a Vasudan shape than a Terran one.

Anyway, of course you can all feel free to use it, that's why I released it! :)

I just looked at the Shu in FRED. My god, the thing is TINY! It's only 8 meters long! Every other fighter in the GTVA arsenal dwarfs it!

Sesq, are you sure you got the size of this fighter right?

Oh damn!  Okay, working on fixing it now.  Thanks for the heads up, Su.

Why? Why? Why?

I didn't make this model, so I don't have to original cob file to reconvert at a larger size.  I tried using PCS to convert the pof to a cob and then converting it back again, but I get stack overflow errors when I try the second step.  I downloaded cob2pof to see if that would work.  I got a similar problem.  I'm now downloading the latest version of PCS to see if the original pof to cob conversion was the buggy bit and whether the new PCS just might do it right.  

It is a very strange situation.  Since the file was already a pof, why is it now giving problems when I turn it back into a pof?

WraithHost, if you're out there, we need your help, since you made this mod originally as the GTF Zenith.

Sesq needs your help.

take a good look at it, and think about this logically.  The apollo cockpit, the valkyrie cockpit, hell any cockpit.  Roughly the same size?  I would think so, if that is the case then the model is fine even at half the length of another fighter.  whereas most fighters are not as tall as they are long, this one is.  it's shape would lend itself to a shorter fighter (lengthwise).  yeah it's small, in length, but it makes up for it in height.  if anything i would say only add two meters to the length, the overall shape as oposed to the flatness of the ulysses, would lend itself to having a comparable amount of interior space, space for fun things like weapons and engines.

once again though, this is just my opinion, and not a fact of physics used in the game.

yeah, but it's a Vasudan fighter, the cockpit should be larger than that of a Terran fighter, to better accomodate their large frame...

Woomeister the Great and Philanthropic is helping me out with resizing the Shu, so hopefully it will be ready for (re-)release shortly.  :)  I'll post a notification thread as soon as it is done.

Anyway, the moral of this story is to triple-check everything, and never assume anything. :rolleyes:

"Assume" always makes an "ass" out of "u" and "me". :p ;) :D

Still, Sesq, thanks for going the extra mile with this. Most other people would have thrown up their hands and given up long ago. :nod:

Hooray for Woomeister!  Woomeister rocks.

Okay, the Shu is fixed now, and thoroughly tested.  The download link in the first post works again, or you can click here.

I do what I can :D

Also a third version is up, if yours doesn't have thruster glows download it again.
This version has everything and should be the last...

I haven't tested the second Shu, so I don't know if the thruster glows work or not...

But if it doesn't, where can I get the third version of the Shu?
