There is an AI type II with the perfect 3d model, why can't someone just swap the interior?
As far as i know conversion from sh4 to sh5 is not possible and no type IX sh5 model is exist at the current moment.
What about copying the polygons from an older model?

It's not as easy as you may think it is. Open any sub from SH5 up in Goblin editor and look at how many things are involved in it. You'll notice that Goblin 'links in' all the references that are set in the various lnk, LNK@, prt, etc. files and references. You have tunnel vision just on one object - that one object is comprised of many other objects and everything relies on each other.
The GR2 Editor/Viewer currently doesn't support the adding of entirely new meshes (yet). I have functionality in it that will let you take an existing mesh and make it something new (by giving it new vertices). You can add/remove subsets from a mesh also. What's holding up the adding of new meshes? Time. It takes time to code this stuff. I'm playing in no-man's land currently - uncharted territory. I'm blazing my own path. I make assumptions as to how I think a certain part of the GR2 file works and most of the time those assumptions are correct. Sometimes they are partly correct and honesty those are the worst times. I don't know which part of the partly correct is correct
Eventually I will get the app to the point where new meshes can be defined. I just need work to quit yanking me out of the country for these extended periods abroad.
That all being said if someone has the determination and the skill they could use my GR2 Editor/Viewer to make a new sub. Hope you got lots of time though as you'll also be blazing a new trail
