Need help identifying star tip

Question

I found a star tip amongst a bunch of miscellaneous parts that I would like to use. However, I can't figure out how to build it in PCDMIS. I'm not sure if it's a prebuilt one or a custom one. The base threads appear to be M3. I don't know what the tips are, but they don't appear to be either M3 or M2. I've tried pretty much every option and combination in the drop down list, but nothing seems close. Does it look familiar to anyone or can anyone help me identify the components if it's a custom built one?

Users are going to have a tough time walking you through that one, since it looks entirely custom built, so I doubt anyone else has that one. There is a video here on editing the usrprobe.dat file to build a star probe. You likely want to watch that whole series though, because the later videos may skip material covered in prior videos.

TBH, if I were you, I would copy a star probe build out of probe.dat, then not bother trying to define a box in the middle of the build. I'd just call it a sphere and leave it as being close enough. Good luck!
