Time to pass judgment
Alright. I had some free time (as opposed to my usual time, which is spent doing an ungodly amount of work).

With that free time, I decided to waste spend it on a brand new FS2 Node Map.

Let me know what you think... changes will be made as needed, etc.

Here's the link:

I'm completely open to suggestions. Give me your thoughts.

Re: Time to pass judgment
That's awesome!

Does that happen to be based off of the nodemap by Setekh?
Fun while it lasted.

Then bitter.

The curved lines bother me.

Little too much glare.  Otherwise fine except for the Ikeya system.  You need to change the sun type to Wicker.   :D

It's based off the official Volition freespace node map, and the data of the stars provided by the HLP wiki.
I had the time to include binary/trinary/quarnery stars, get the colors right, and even untangle some of the jump nodes (if you look at the Volition map, it gets really messy). Also, it's 1024x768, so it can sit in the background of most monitors.

I know that the glowy text is a bit bothersome, and I'm going to get that fixed soon.

I think the text is fine. Would you happen to have it in 1280x720 format? :drevil:

j/k

I also need to put a little bursty thing on Capella, but whatev.
And I'll tweak the leveling a bit in my next version to help reduce the glariness.

No, in fact.
Constructed in <10 minutes from my previous build.
I'm experiencing trouble uploading it to any image hosting sites, so I'm going to put it on my PC/server web folder, which means it won't be available 24/7 (hence the PC part).
Here it is.

Isn't the system called Beta Aquilae ? With one L .

And isn't Ribos a red star ?

Also, the curved lines disturb me  :nervous:

Other than that, I like it.

Why the hell do people hate the lines so much??

Re: Time to pass judgment

They're CURVED. So that means they look strange. Besides, we see the subspace corridor as a straigth tunnel.

Re: Time to pass judgment
i honestly think someone should make a sort-of a fs2 bible thing, including a complete map (one that includes all the systems, including new ones like Tau Sigma and Talnia, etc).

And i'm sorry, but the curvy lines just sort-of make it harder to follow routes and stuff.
Sig nuked! New one coming soon!

 
Re: Time to pass judgment
didn't the inferno team make one like that already? or the derelict team?
