Hi guys 'n' gals.

I'm running a Serenity RPG game online and have put together stats and some hand-drawn sketches for a new class of spaceship. I've done my best to describe the ship to my players but I would really like to put some diagrams and floor plans up so they can see them.

I used to have a program that you could make dungeon floorplans and other kinds of maps with but I lost that several harddrive crashes ago

Anyone know of a free program that you can do this sort of thing with?

Thanks!

Dundjini with the Sci-fi addon is proably your best bet. It gets great results, but is somewhat limited and eats ram. Also, if your willing to wait a few months, Campaign Cartographer III will be out, which is far more powerful but more difficult to use.

Alternatively, you could use Photoshop and Illustrator.

Lot's of chat about the RPG over at "Waves in the Black" in aimoo.

There's a big thread on ship plans and rendering at this thread:

Hope this helps.
