will be working on the maps light year scale when the servers com up, i figure the 3 keys are in the Regulus Sector Block, if the distance from the Watran system and the Arucanis Arm border reads the same as the distance from the Kassae system to the psi-canis border. if they both tally then it should be half that distance from the sevrin system to the eta eridani border... fingers crossed

Great job. Thanks.

Most Impressive. although borg space isn't quite there to my recollection, you can give yourself a hand by looking at uhh.... The star maps books that was released about five years back. This is a quick and easy guide and I give you major props for this sir.

Very nice. I'd add a URL to the map itself (or page where map is linked), so that people will be able to check for updates.

[Archived Post]

Thanks a lot! People like you in the community make life in-game so much easier for the rest of us!

This is awesome. A bit big, which is great i think.

Thanks a lot for all the dedication and hard work. ;)

I wanted to post this question here again since the last thread died off: Do the space lanes in the sector blocks actually do anything in-game, or are they just there as art?

[Archived Post]

Great map. Using this to help me out better than the ingame one.

Please sticky :)

Great map, I posted it to a site that uses the Google Maps API, MapLib.com - makes it easier to navigate and zoom:

Everyone in this thread should have a special passworded forum page that we can talk about the game in. :D

[Archived Post]

<3 that´s what im missing INGAME !!!!!

[Archived Post]

Whoops, its MapLib.NET (i had put .com in my post but fortunately cut and paste the link so that works fine).

Glad the Full Screen Windowed mode works so well in this game - I can have the map loaded up on my second monitor for reference.

[Archived Post]

Much appreciated and a new bookmark...great job!!

[Archived Post]

The Google thing is... awesome.

This is exactly how the map should be in-game, with dynamic info included (your position and correct bearing, friendlies etc).

Thanks for doing this. There's a typo by the way; the Federation sector near the Romulan border (Upper Right) is Iota Pavonis not Lota Pavonis. (The system directory listing has it correct though.)

[Archived Post]

Found a typo, Rura Penthe is not spelt correctly on your sector list on your map (You've spelt it Rura Pethe)

[Archived Post]

is Iota Pavonis not Lota Pavonis.

not sure if your showing me a capital I (eye) or a lower case l (ell). that font only comes in capitals so i cant change it to lower case.

Found a typo, Rura Penthe is not spelt correctly on your sector list on your map (You've spelt it Rura Pethe)

thanks for spotting that, no matter how many times i scan over this image when publishing, i always find something thats out later on...

was thinking of scraping that list and using an A - Z list... not sure yet tbh


i know there are a few more typo's in there to be found, already noted some of the sector names that are wrong... roll on V1.1 :)

I went for the A-Z on my map, took a real long time to type and sort it out! Although I like the way you have yours with the colour codes and sector block headings as well.

I wonder if the people at www.vidiotmaps.com could run with something like this...
Like the downloadable CoX in-game map overlay.

[Archived Post]

Very nice map. Keep em coming.

[Archived Post]

Used this map many many time it really need a sticky on forums to let new players find it easier.

[Archived Post]

Awesome map :) Here's a question... where's Ferenginar? Is it not in the game?

Another question: There's an awful lot of empty space in the alpha quadrant... has it just been unexplored? If so I'm confused by that, I'd have thought Starfleet would have explored more by now, given it's where Earth is. Or is it just not included in the game? If that's the case, does anyone know what SHOULD be there?

Feranginar on the map would be aprox in the sector space above the Rolor Nebular in the Alpha quad,
its not in the game atm but im sure there are plans to add more blocks, sectors and systems. with evry game they always work back from the full list of content so they can offer it out bit by bit, that way thy can charge you over and over.

well done man, very nice on the eyes, good graphical decision making on your part

[Archived Post]

I'd like to say that I use this map anytime I need a location, partly because of the very nice google interface, and above all because it's exactly the same design as the map in-game (thus easier for the eye to catch information).

Thanks again Washproof ;)

Oh yes it needs. But the devs chose that Suritaca's work deserves it while this one doesn't. It's not my place to judge, I prefer this one, but who am I to judge.

It's too bad they can't make a compiling thread, at least to give credit to those like Washproof who invested time and energy to help others.

I'd love for a thread that has a list of all these maps, there area a lot of good ones out there. I think Suricata's got the Sticky because it was the first, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

We were both in closed beta and working on our maps with the help from others, as to who posted what where fisrt? im not sure. This map was originaly a guild project.

Thanks everyone for your thanks, never fear! version 2 is in the works and will hit you mid March along with Cryptics first game Update!! sorry there has been no updates, i have been playing the game :)

thx again :)

maybe the devs like suricata's map because it looks almost exactly like the one in game, just different colors lol either way there are a lot of nice user created maps that deserve recognition

youyr right, there are some really great posts getting lost in the qustions and gripes

[Archived Post]

Thanks for that very cool . No more searching for 1/2 hour trying to find where to go for my next quest.

[Archived Post]

Absolutely superb map. This sort of thing should have been in the game. Proper scales, legends, actual system lists - Cryptic should copy this with a little footnote on the map saying 'Dedicated to Washproof for making us actually do a decent galactic map' :p

More seriously, all the user-created maps deserve recognition and good ideas should be incorporated into the game, credit where it's due. Nothing gives a greater sense of community than dedicated people creating resources and the developers taking notice (as a similar example, taking a spin through EVE's system list, you'll find a few user references if you know your EVE community history).

[Archived Post]

Judging by this map, I'd say the devs have allowed for quite a bit of room for expansion, especially for the Federation and Klingon Empire.

[Archived Post]

There are a lot of great maps out there, thank you!

http://sto-toolbox.com/maps.php has updated its maps.
The galaxy maps and starbase maps are searchable and include NPCs, banks, exchanges... and what ever.

ATTENTION MAP GUYS:

Gamma Orionis IS NOT IN THE DELTA QUADRANT!!!

Gamma Orionis is an area below Klingon Space near Federation Territory on the edge of the Gorn Hegemony. Even Cryptic has it in the wrong spot.

Yep, QFT = Every Map that I have seen points to the Mutara Nebula (referenced in ST II so we know its a reasonable distance from the UFP) and Cestus (being near the Gorn from TOS) being in the Lower half of the Beta Quadrant. In fact, if the Borg wanted to make a good rally unimatrix to set up for an Invasion of the Feds, that place is as good as any. They probably just built out their Transwarp conduit network out to that location and have not extended it closer to earth any farther.

[Archived Post]

Ya I loved this map it's a good ref4rence... it just went down though... wonder when it'll be back up...

[Archived Post]

Im Back :D

left the game last year around april, came back a few days ago to see if what its like now, i may re-vamp this map at some point...

[neleej1]

Any place where the discussed maps can actually be viewed? (Links I checked are all outdated, i.e. file not found, etc.)

Best map online is at http://maniacallaughter.com/pages/star_trek_universe_map.php, but it's 2D only.

EDIT: Nevermind, found it. Very nice job!
