Righteous Fury gets my vote. It is easy to read, which is the important thing, and with some more tweaking it should be awesome!

Originally by: Ben Derindar Yay, my turn for an update. 
Linkage
Changed since the WIP:
- brightened the stars a bit, as well as a few alliance names - numbered the skulls and added warzones, NAPs and treaties - fixed Curse to SE and Detorid to ATUK - added stripes to G/IMP and Keiretsu/Foundation - added Coalition of Empires
As far as the design goes, I would say my map is now complete. Content is another thing, but as Righteous says, that's not the focus just yet.

I like Ben Derindar's map better because it looks like Quarath's and I fear change.
Get a faster host, your current one is killer slow.

With no pun intended atall, did anyone else notice that 90% of the times, CA and exCA claimed territories get a red / orange colour, whereas the other old alliances tend to get blue / green?

Originally by: DB Preacher Edited by: DB Preacher on 23/02/2005 10:32:02 I'm colour blind and find it extremely difficult to differentiate between your alliances colours (most just look shades of blue).
Yay, I'm not the only one.

the CVA blob is a little big considering the size of their presence. I wouldnt even call it a claim discounting their POS there (No offence to them) :p

He included both Y-MPWL and R-3 (Or whatever is next to Misaba). That's incorrect, Y-MPWL is patrolled by XETIC usually. (DDC mainly). CVA only patrol the R-3 corner.

Originally by: Righteous Fury Bored. Updated my map again to reflect G/Imp shared space (hypocritical, why yes I am) and added warzone icons. I'd like feedback on the icons, to be honest I don't think they're all that helpful but several people have suggested them, thoughts? My opinion is that they just clutter the map that's already filled with names and colors.

Uhhhhg, you used exactly the design style I was thinking of.

Thanks for the comments guys, some replies:
DBP - I'm working on the colors, I just had a conversation about this with my corpmates last night (a few of which who are colorblind, news to me). I'll try to make the colors distinct as possible by not using similar shades next to each other. I'd use the same colors at Quarath, but I want to have my own style and not just a clone.
Szumo Manos - I realize I gave you a bit too much space heh, twas late when I was trying to finish off the controlled territories with HF/CVA/COE. It was like 4 am, and the slight difference between the star layout of my map and quaraths was driving me insane haha. I'll fix that error, but I'm not going to give you regional claims in empire. While yes, I realize you guys are roleplayers (and do it very well I may add), the real interest of this map is 0.0 claimed territories. Perhaps in the future I'll make an RPer map showing Ushra'Khan, CVA, and everyone else.
Missus Doubtfire - To be honest I have no idea where Supremacy and 3FA decide their borders end, I just made a rough guess as to where their territory is. if someone could perhaps take a screenshot of Syndicate and just circle where who goes it would help me immensely (no need for quality, ms paint lines would work). I'm a southern fruit, I don't venture out west or north much I'll take a look at quaraths map again and fix them as best I can though.
Elve - Haha you're quite right. I didn't put any real thought into it when I was doing the colors, but now I realize you're correct. A lot of my colors are similar to Quarath's, so perhaps it was his idea of color coding.
Back to Photoshop, I'll post an update later today.

The problem with syndicate is that from a 2d perspective alot of the constellations overlap each other making the region very confusing to look at, even on an ingame map zoomed in. Afaik, 3FA claim the Y4Y Constellation, and SUPR claim the MK7-AO and JQV5-9 constellations. The rest of syndicate is very much a no-mands land last time I was there, atlhough I do recal Imperium once stating that they claimed the rest of the region? (*giggle* good luck..)
My favourite atm though is Ben's map, simply because Quarath's style and choice of colours was excellent and I dont think there's anypoint in changing either of those things unless its for something better. Rightous' map is original, and nice to look at, but not better imo than the old Quarath design.

Okay I've updated with new colors, rearranged Supremacy/3FA space, and cut CVA's size. Since I'm not colorblind, I would appreciate some pointers as to where the colors are too similar and end up looking the same. Obviously I'm never going to get it so that nobody has a problem viewing the map, so I'm keeping the thick borderlines as a support.

Looks pretty damn good, don't be afraid to use completely contrasting colours though ;)
Only probs for me atm are exodus and FOE looking identical from a colour pov.
Can't fault the map otherwise, much cleaner and precise than the others (sorry guys).
Just hope if you do get it you are ready to upkeep it and take the whining from me ;)

Edited by: Righteous Fury on 23/02/2005 21:18:22 DBP - Oh I can take a lot of whining, as long as I get to whine back . A corpmate of mine said the exact samething about FOE and Exodus, are you colorblind to blue/green as well? I'll try to differentiate the colors, I was more worried about PA and Exodus looking the same.
Max - I know Shinra and Xetic are nearly the same color, but they're gonna have to stay that way. The gangbang of controlled territories in what used to be CA makes it a pain to use a broad spectrum of colors and still try to compensate for color-blindness. They're far enough away from each other so that its not real confusing, unless the big SHINRA text is hiding.

I'll tell you about the time my mum gave me pink cutlery some other time :p
Xetic and shinra are very similar but currently not in conflict or near to each other...

A minor change to my map:
Linkage
Upped the glow a bit around the Keiretsu/Foundation skull, and adjusted the territory claimed by CVA and Huzzah after a closer look at the in-game map.
I should warn that the image is 248K, and yes, my host is not the fastest - apologies for that, but it is at least free. I could save the image as a PNG and possibly save a few K that way, or would people prefer a JPG format?
Up to this point I've deliberately gone for a look that was as close to Quarath's style as possible, but I'm open to other ideas. I wonder personally about brightening up the borders and reducing the size of the region names along the lines of what Righteous has on his. *shrug*

Righteous Fury's map is awesome. It could be a little better, but it is WAY original and I like it a lot.
I do not think the new map should look like the old map because the attempts are simply not looking good at all, sorry.

Edited by: Aliksr on 23/02/2005 23:33:08 just a note, the map is used mainly to see what the political situation in 0.0 is. but actually quarath's map had all the empire regions labelled, and that WAS useful. sometimes it's a pain to fire up the in-game map.
just something to consider, that in dropping the empire labels you do lose some usefulness. it's probably worth it, but it had to be mentioned.

how is it useful? i dont see the point in listing empire regions because no one can claim it. and this is a territorial map but maybe the winner *cough* righteous furry *cough* can also host a blank map with all the regions names

Please add the R0ME/Uknown Shoe/BURN EDEN vs Stain Empire conflict to the map. It is focused around 4GQ (the area the the right of the word Stain on your map) but extends al the way up to Catch. ----------------------------------------- Heinky> Dont mix eve with rl it can be bad for your health |
