How to get the Sapporo

[Mariouzs]

Is there any way to get the Sapporo ship in any other game start besides the Timelines DLC?

once you've unlocked it by playing timelines you can simply claim the abandoned version that spawns in any regular, even already running, game.

however, if your question is if there are other means to unlock that specific ship in your game without actually going through the timelines stuff... there should something to be found on nexus that simply sets timelines as completed.

Yes there is, but it's dangerous. You'll need the Timelines DLC, and need to have completed the mission that spawns the Sapporo in the regular game universe, there may also be a mission that opens a new sector.

Then,

If you go south from Atiya's Misfortune III you'll find a sector called Mists of Artemis. South southwest of this system you'll see a massive kha'ak installation. An abandoned Sapporo is just outside of the gun range of this station.

Beware, there is a much more dangerous threat in the area, and it spawns almost in range of the sapporo. You can either kill it, which is a risky prospect if you're not prepared, or let it fly away (Spawn the sector, make a visual confirmation to be sure it's spawned and then leave the sector for 20-30 minutes, it'll probably drift away)

And yeah... Once you claim the ship, you'll be able to research the blueprint, so it's not even essential to recover the ship.

Custom Game Start, Budgeted. SPAWN in mist of artemis in spacesuit, grab the Sapporo, run. You need to be quite familiar with direction you'll run into as the idea is not to stop travel mode at any circumstances.

In Creative, I believe you can simply give yourself Sapporo.

That's exactly what I'm talking about. If it appears in a game I've already started, well, my save is from day 1 when X4 was released, with around 3,000 hours of gameplay in that save. I'm not interested in cheating either.

So what I have to do is play the Timelines DLC, and it will eventually appear in my 3,000-hour save? Is that correct?

Yes. All missions in Timelines that have an unlock should say something to that affect in its description and requires only a 1 star rating to achieve the unlock. Though, note, that to move to higher level "graphs" (groups of missions), sometimes you need to achieve more than 1 star in all of the missions (cumulative for that group).

The best way to get the Sapporo is to do a custom spacesuit game-start. Set your start location to be in the South wast quadrant of Mists of Artemis.

Failing that, just fly your start ship to Mists of Artemis. Do a first pass by to locate the Sapporo, then run straight at it. The Ka'ark will likely destroy your starter scout ship before you reach the Sapporo, but just EVA across the rest of the way and your good.

I think the Sapporo makes a great personal ship.
