I was looking at this YT movie:

See all these ships and human figures next to them I though it would be amazing feeling having them on X4 landing platform.
Technicallities:
- Homeworld universe has everything that total conversion needs - tons of ships, stations, factions, lore, equipment, background music, sounds.
- factions : you have normal empires, sub-factions of these empires, pirates, ancient robots, ancient advance traders - enought to easily fill the X4 size galaxy.
- Ships are modular in both design and function (e.g. usually they share the same hull, but with different weapons/modules on them)
- Stations are modular, so they would fit well with X4 engine
- Universe structure is similar - HW universe even has it's own version of the gates, albeit most of the travel is done by hyperspace jump drive - it might be that X-Rebirth jumpdrive code is still in X4 or can be transfered to X4 for this).
- Most of carrier capable ships have flat surfaces for X4 landing pads and launch pods.
- The only thing that would be slightly different is that Homeworld economy don't need so many products - they basically harvest resource from asteroids and gas clouds, move them to production ship and then produce everything it their nano-3D printers. However this could be still expanded with adding some consumer goods and food for trading (because in order to build any ship you just need miner to drop resources to production capable ship like Carrier or mothership).
- Dunno if X4 engine is capable of having mobile production ship, but I think in previous X-games mods did this easily, so it should be doable here too.
- Homeworld Remaster has modern quality models, but fighter/corvette size would need cokpits to be modeled.
Universe could be even further expended by some high quality, lore friendly mods like Taiidan Republic:

...also Homeworld 3 is aparently in the early work (planed release Q4 2022):

[Idea] Homeworld TC mod?
