Detailed Tradelane Rings

Freelancer got old, we know it.
Besides this fact, I always wondered how Tradelanes are working. I imagine, they are using some kind of fuel tanks for keeping up the energyfield.

However, based on those imaginations, I created, years ago, a detailed model of Tradelane rings.

It includes working .sur file and wireframe. It does not has any LoD models!
Also included is the example solararch.ini entry.

Some positive sideffect: While I redesigned the TLR, those two turrets had no mounts on the emitters. Now they are mounted on an central weapon platform. The side effect: NPCs will hit the TLR now, damaging it instead of shooting into empty space.
