Has anyone experimented with marking on the pages. I tried a silver sharpie, not enough contrast. For those that don't know, the sharpie can be "erased" by going over with a dry write marker. Go figure. Same holds true on dry write board, go over permanent marker with dry write marker, brings it right up. Back to subject - while the sharpie works, I'm nervous about it. Has anyone tried grease pencils? Any other suggestions?
Love the maps!!

Please check your order to see it's shipping status, if it's not been shipped, please contact [email protected]
It changed from pending to shipped right around when I got the email saying they would be shipped out 2 weeks ago

I live in Canada and just got mine last night. So I'd give it another week for the postal service to get it to your hands.

Edited by: Havok Pierce on 29/05/2008 18:56:16 Serenity, I've modified your helpfully-provided index list into something that's more easily printable--would you like a copy of the raw source and a PDF (in case something likes this gets into the next dead-tree version)? If you want, what I'd do is toss it up on some personal webspace and then evemail you a link so you could grab it and decide from there what to do with it.
It's nothing fancy, but I just couldn't get past the fact that there wasn't a printed index (although I can see why you'd omit it... it's fscking huge).
Also, for the next time you do this, did you consider the use of clear overlays for getting more information onto these works of beauty?

I am overall impressed with the quality of the maps. They are really beautiful. I am however very disappointed with the ability to see the station services. I literally cannot see the dots that indicate which services are available and I have 20/20 vision. I think that the array of dots (and the outside size of the system circle) could have been made larger without significantly affecting the map size or usability. This was my primary reason for buying the book.

I agree the station services need more contrast to be able to spot well from an overview/glance in gamer lighting scenarios. It will be addressed in any future prints.

Got my copy yesterday. Very nice. Only thing I see so far is that the new outpost stickers are a touch too big and block out the moon and asteroid data. And as everyone knows the number of moons really says a lot about how to go about 'acquiring' an outpost from someone else. -----------------------------------------

Serenity,
I posted this in another thread before finding this feedback thread. I am curious what you might be able to tell me on the follow:
Browsing through some maps I found a few areas that I frequent appear to either be mislabeled or are changing significantly.
Specifically Great Wildlands.
M-MD3B (Currently has 2 stations) the new map has this marked as 1 outpost
E02-IK (Currently has 1 station) the new map has this marked as 1 outpost.
N-DQ0D (Currently has 1 station) the new map has this marked as 1 outpost.
Are these real misprints... or is Great Wildlands changing that significantly?

These are real misprints. Everything is correct except the colour. When running the checking queries, I didn't have one to check the colour of the systems :( All the other data (sec status, station services, asteroid belts, moons, jumps) are correct.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Got mine last week in great condition. Wanted to use it a few days before passing judgment on it.
Great design and easy to use, above posts noted. I have a much easier time using this than the pdf's on my PC. I just grab the book, thats always open to my area, and I'm good to go. I can also take it to the easy chair and plot my next moves.
Thanks Serenity. Well worth the price and wait. |

Reading the other posts on the USA, you should be ok. It appears to be in the range of 1-3 weeks.
If your order doesn't show as "shipped" on the order tracking, then please email: eon [at] mmmpublishing [dot] com

Edited by: Isayo Arkindra on 07/06/2008 16:43:02 Tiny suggestion of something that I feel is "missing" on the maps. A small overview on where the displayed region is in the EVE universe. While flipping away on regions that I'm not familiar with, I need to flip between the "overview" map (page 2?) to locate it in the universe. Just a small map, no names on it - highlighting where it is.
Forgot to add: Really love the book otherwise! Excellent work! :) __________

Nice suggestion for each page. Thanks!
Something that will save flipping to page 2 is the loose introduction sheet (Dear Fellow EvE Player...) Contains the overview map as well :)

I bought it for the convenience of having a more portable, if spartan, version of GF's maps and it's actually come out rather well. Nicely done.
In the future however you may wish to use a light gray background rather than solid black. The main appeal of printed maps is the ability to add notation or reference marks as needed, and while given the non-glossy nature of the mapbook this is still possible it has to be done with permanent ink (silver gel) rather than erasable (pencil).

Will this be eventually offered through Amazon or similars like the novel? After a very bad experience while ordering from the eve shop I do not plan in loosing any more money that way. ------------------------------------------------ "Stop quoting laws, we carry weapons!"

Have no fear .. The book is shipped directly by EON publishers (mmm publishing), so it's different people monitoring the orders and packing/shipping.
There are no plans to make it available through Amazon (or equivalent).
