Capital Ship Shields and Custom Shield Shapes

  • hi,
    i want to know how to go about making a shield for a capital ship as I've seen in in some mods and would like to be able to do it for my ships..
    Is it also possible to make the shields into specific shapes like following the contours of a ship but still a gap between the ship and the shield like a bubble like it is with vanilla freelancers ships and their shields or just making them into odd shapes because i think this would look better that the shield hugging the ships shell like i saw in the mod. thanks in advance
