Hi guys I am looking for some help, maybe a guide or tool to help me modify existing player structures. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have no idea who to target with this question directly.

A few days ago, I wrote up a small tutorial on how to replace the banners of a guild hall with a new texture. This isn't exactly what you asked for, and I'm not sure what specifically you need, but I do list all the components that make up a structure, and might be of some help to you in identifying how structures work in their entirety.

Okay I am reading through your steps here (Great guide btw) and I want to make sure I am doing the shader file correctly....in step 2, am I just replacing the first instance of "NAME" with the new dds I made or that entire node

You only wish to replace the content of the NAME node, if you're looking to replace just the shader/texture for that mesh component. The rest of the information in that node relates to the mesh, its collisions, and other properties, which are A. Not important to you if you're just replacing the texture and B. Not exactly something you want to edit from within SIE.

Awesome thanks a million for the guide and walk through, my first attempt worked perfectly. So for the next bag of tricks I received some guidance from Sytner on copying and pasting nodes from existing structures to the structure I want to mod with the feature from that node. (in this case is is a force field roof) I've copied the node over to all 3 of the exterior mesh files for the GH but cannot see the force field roof. I assume it is laying at some pre-determined location or height but I have no idea how to move that item around in the feature for placement. Is there a guide perhaps.

Also...will copying and pasting other mesh file nodes into the structure's mesh file work the same if I want to add other features to my structure mod? For example, doors, radar dishes, defense turrets, hatches etc...?
