Ship/Factory 3D Models and Stats Viewer (spoiler?)
'X Models 3D Viewer.exe' version 1.1.1.6
for any version of X3 or X2.
This is a guide utility program to let you visually compare all 'known' ships
Physically appearance (3D animation)
Performance statistics
Weapon configuration
and for factories :
Physically appearance (3D animation)
Production statistics
(also it will view most other models in the game if you have 'extracted' them).
The program reads the game files directly,
(but can also read 'extracted' files)
You can compare ships / factories from the initial install set with
any mods you have installed (whether or not they are 'activated')
The installation includes a help document with full instructions.

http://www.Exogenesis.co.uk/XModels3DVi ... .1.1.6.exe
also here is a zip file of the same, since I think same firewalls veto downloading of exe files
http://www.Exogenesis.co.uk/XModels3DVi ... .1.1.6.zip
Also there are infrequent 'hot fix's (just an updated .exe file),
the latest one v1.1.2.3 is a fix to do with the XFP & XTM mods, and HQ SprayShop support, and can be found on the post one down from :
http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php? ... 64#2142764
Installation:
The installer will ask you to browse to your X3 or X2 directory, where it will put the 5 files, then it
will put an link in 'All Programs' in the Start menu for both the program and the help file
(Word2000, viewable with Wordpad.exe).
There are no extra needed DLLs etc, they are all included in the install.
You can install into multiple X3/X2 installation directories, but the link is to the latest install.
There is now an uninstaller included.
If you have any Scripting/Modding type posts/questions, there is a separate linked thread on the S&M forum for this purpose.

This is to avoid getting this whole thread moved to that forum, thanks.
Please tell me if you see any errors,
or if you have any suggestions for further features.
Many thanks to doubleshadow for his brilliant X3Editor program(s) and extraction routines,
without which I couldn't have got started on this!
And thanks to Merroc for all the factory stats.
