Hi, see the last post here:

http://summerglauwiki.com/forum/16-200-1

He made a great firefly universe map, I took it and modified it, I wanted to base it off this image:

http://www.fireflyshipworks.com/map-of-the-verse/map-of-the-verse/

Note that I did not post my name on it and all his credits are still there, but he hasent been online in a few month, so I was wondering if I can post it here as I think its really cool. Again I take no credit, its his hard work, I simply put it in a way that shows how the actual universe looks..

I asked there if it was ok, but as I mentioned, he has not been online in some time..

Long as you ain't sellin' what you modified, I can't see where there'd be too much of a problem, even if I'm not involved any which ways.

Most Flans are usually happy to lend skills, and it looks as though you've gone outta your way to posty here, so good on ya!

http://summerglauwiki.com/forum/16-200-2#11616

Its posted there if you want to see what it looks like, you can also download it there if you dont like mega-upload.

Note the one posted there is a small version, the mega-upload version is the full size and hasnt been crunched.

Updated:
Added a missing orbit
Added the locations of the 8 Deep Space Stations
Changed systems to show "Cutouts" to better define where they are:
EDIT:
Updated again to show orbits on the right of image:

EDIT 2: Was able to drastically reduce size of image to 1.6 megs from over 6 megs with no loss of quality!! Also image is not as big but just as informative!

Would cap'n Mal have asked permission?


That's what a ship is, you know - it's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs.

No probably not, but I don't want to offend anyone :) Updated again:

I like the additions. It's a pretty little map. There are a few small errors, but I like it.

Thanks, Ive actually rebuilt it from scratch to feel much like space and have a sort of busy rpg space feel.. You can see the latest download and a small preview picture Here:
http://summerglauwiki.com/forum/16-200-3

Ok I'll post here:

Hi, Ok as you can see I have far too much time on my hands lol I have completely changed the layout again, it uses all the ideas above but the look is 100% Different (I started over from scratch), the image size is just over 3 megs (shrunk from 25 megs) Now when you first look at it (especially if its not full size) You'll think it looks chaotic and insane, but once you look at it in its 1:1 ratio (its 4500x4500), you will see its pretty cool (at least I like it) anyway this is a alternate version I thought you may like..

It includes all 15 Cortex Relay Stations and all 9 Deep Space Stations, and accurate orbit locations.
It took me a long time to piece together this version and has a much better "space" feel to it, Im rather proud of this version.
(See if you can find Serenity)

Let me know what you think:
http://www.mediafire.com/?6jdzwr6g7i2tamv

Credits goto The Savior for his system blowouts based off QM Studios the verse in numbers and also to QM Studios for there system map art.

Note: I hope QM doesn't mind that I used there system map images that they made public in this little fan project, if they do I can remove link and keep this for my own use or try and use something different.

EDIT: Now that the arc of the universe is out I'd like to start over yet again so its accurate, and rebuild the system blowouts, but of course if I do that, Id have to go by that new arc guide, but not sure that would be kosher, as they have made the actual orbits, so essentially other then the art way I present it, it literally would be there new orbits as there the official guide. (well it is now but it would be 100% there work, Id just re-do it with pretty orbits and graphics in a graphical map like above) So If they dont mind Id like to remake the orbits to be accurate, but they say you have to ask in the PDF, so its hard to remake this to be accurate as as it would have to be based off that PDF.

Ive completely started over, this thread is now obsolete, Im making all orbits myself and adding all planets myself, note "The Savior" will still be credited as it was his original idea for the blowouts.
