Just as a note for people, it appears this mod's folder got renamed in the latest version, so make sure you delete the right existing (older) version in your extensions. Never drag and drop to overwrite the existing (older) mod, which wouldn't work at in this case anyways.
For those who wanna buy this from Terrans at level 20. Recommended to use Sublime or Notepad++ to see code easier. If you wanna be more advanced, install Visual Studio Code. All of these will notably show you any errors, assuming you made any.
1. create a folder named freyr_for_sale inside of \X4 - Foundations\extensions
2. create a folder named libraries inside of \X4 - Foundations\extensions\freyr_for_sale
3. create an XML file named wares.xml inside of \X4 - Foundations\extensions\freyr_for_sale\libraries
4.copy, paste and save after applying the code below.
5. create an XML file named content.xml inside of \X4 - Foundations\extensions\freyr_for_sale
6. copy, paste and save after applying the code below.

7. Finished. The "mod" will be enabled by default and has no extension settings. You still need this Freyr ship mod installed. Enjoy the Freyr for sale at the Terran shipyard within The Moon sector.
And change the time it takes to produce by editing the line;
- <production time="360"
Don't change anything else. If you wanna make this into a downloadable mod here on Nexus, feel free to do so. Don't need any credit for it nor will I handle support matters that may arise in the future.
To do that;
- zip the folder called freyr_for_sale and upload the zipped folder to Google Drive or Github, then do whatever Nexus tells you when you upload something, including description, images, etc. Do ask the author here if you can use their images, or take your own by pressing shift + H in game. Then use your numpad - and + to zoom in and out. Then whatever key you have set to move around the third person camera. Google is your friend for that.
I might be able to make a mod (mod or mod, more like a text file saying you can buy something) that enables you to buy it from the Terran shipyard, and alternative versions for Argon, Antigone and the other human factions - call it "ships seized and resold to cover expenses."
Would it be hard? Shouldn't be. Someone made a mod that enables the Asgard and Syn to be available for purchase. The same concept should work for this, as long as you have this mod installed beforehand.
Edit: Done. Wasn't that complicated at all. It's available to buy. Now I just gotta make sure it builds it properly.
hi, "Ship Variation Expansion VRO" mod already has Freyr name. can VRO patch team change name for something else to avoid issues with other mods? they got me to ask you for permission
Clarification, since you seem to have misunderstood the response in VRO patch coments - RE team takes no issue with the the current name. Freyr name is used in vanilla SVE as well, but considering limited number of vanilla namelists naming conflicts are unevitable at this point. And since SVE has dozens of ships it usually falls victim to this.
VRO patch name will remain matched to Lint's original, whatever Lint decides it is to be. If we wanted to change it for only VRO we'd ask ourselves.
This is a beautiful ship, which will undoubtedly be replacing the carriers in my fleet. The bridge sitting over the docks and that long "runway" along the ship make for a great view and feel when you launch the fighter.
I only with it had a second engine to be faster, but we can't have everything.
I've returned after testing the ship and I have to say its even better than I thought it would be! Its so beautiful and clean looking. You are an artist my friend! I wish the devs would put ships like this in the vanilla game. It looks so damn good!
