This one is a vertically aligned map based on the original Earth and Beyond Galaxy Map on page 230 of the official Primus Guide for E&B. A problem I had been noticing with all the maps out there so far (mine included) was that the sector gates did not align with the direction of the zone you were gating to. For instance: If I am in Akerons Gate and want to go to Saturn, the map shows Saturn to the northwest, but the game show the Saturn Gate to the south...or if I want to go to the Aragoth gate (toward Freya), the gate in-game is to the north of me, but the map shows Freya to the south. Then I noticed in the old Prima Guide book, they show a galaxy map that is aligned more vertical with all the sectors in different positions that make all the gates in-game line up properly with the map. So, this is primarily what I wanted to do...create a map based on the original design of the galaxy by Westwood Studios themselves in how they envisioned the galaxy to look, reflected in the gate alignments in the game correctly related to the position of the galactic sectors on the Map.[/background][/font][/color] [color=#D3D3D3][font=Helvetica, arial, sans-serif][background=rgb(51, 51, 51)]So, this map is a new unique addition to the Game. Try it out.[/background][/font][/color] [color=#D3D3D3][font=Helvetica, arial, sans-serif][background=rgb(51, 51, 51)]As always....let me know if you see any mistakes or omissions and I will change them right away and repost the corrected map.[/background][/font][/color] [color=#EE82EE][font=Helvetica, arial, sans-serif][background=rgb(51, 51, 51)][size=6][font=georgia, serif]Riana[/font][/size][/background][/font][/color][color=#D3D3D3][font=Helvetica, arial, sans-serif][background=rgb(51, 51, 51)] [/background][/font][/color] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
