New FL-Universe map development. Need community help

[iXenon]

Race logos are Egosoft content distributed as part of the X2 Webpack (see the end of the Bonus Materials download section for X2), and used for example in the X Encyclopedia or in older games (like X2). This content is specifically provided for use on fan websites. There's also this FAQ article explaining what kind of content from the games or soundtrack you can use under which terms.

Thank you for the explanation, I added the info and links in the file.

Alright guys, please, use this link to download SVG file. It has two versions: EN and DE.

This is not an image this time, but a vector map. Open in it your browser and it should work there. The search will work as well.
Please, let me know about any mistakes you can observe there.

Please, test as well. And if you want you can send me data for the customization. You can use this as a template:

If you claimed a sector, put "You" in the "race", otherwise put the race name who claimed it, like "Boron". If you renamed a sector, then edit "title". If a sector didn't appear in your game, put "hidden": 1 there. If you placed a jump beacon in an RSL sector, put "jb": 1 there. Then remove everything that wasn't changed, for example if the race is still "Unclaimed" (for sectors that didn't appear) or the title is the same, just delete these parameters. The idea is to keep only that was changed. And you can provide the sector names you inserted the Hub between. Then send me that JSON back right here or in PM and I'll prepare customized map for you. Of course, this is optional and only if you want to have such map.

How to reach sector Quiet Tides Beta. It's possible ? There are any gates from Quiet Tides.

Only about half of sectors would appear in the game and the exactly set varies. That happened in my game, for example, Quiet Tides Beta isn't there.
Try to visit in Quiet Tides, does LFL show something? If not, the sector most likely didn't appear.

[Terraformer33]

Nothing. Thanks for info.

Why can't build TOA on every HASP. Explorers Guild don't give me chance to choose it. This is the bug Does anyone have such a problem

Not sure about exactly numbers but the game has about 28 unclaimed sectors and only ~50% of them appear. And about ~40-50% of these appeared sectors you can claim. There is no way to claim all unclaimed sectors the game has, so other races will acquire some of them. But there is a trick that should help you get the sector you like. If there are more than one unclaimed sector and the sector you like is getting claimed by other race (it may happens in seconds after you activate the HSAP), then first activate HSAP to sector you don't need. It will be claimed by computer and then you can activate HSAP to other sector (which you like) and ask EG representative for the rights.

I found HSAP in sector Depths of Silence beta and I can't build TOA. Explorers Guild talk to me , you must find and etc etc etc..... Is this bug or what. I'm irritated Too many bugs.

It isn't a bug, this HSAP is meant to be claimed by Boron.
Another HSAP you can't build a TOA on it is either in Light Waters/Maelstrom.

Another HSAP you can't build a TOA on it is either in Light Waters/Maelstrom.

And, I believe, Duke's Citadel beta as well. Thus, we have two sector groups here where only one pair of sectors will appear:

1. Duke's Citadel beta/Sanctuary of Darkness OR Depths of Silence beta/Sanctuary of Darkness

• Light Water beta/Unknown Enemy Sector OR Maelstrom beta/Unknown Enemy Sector

The appeared pair of sectors cannot be claimed by player and that means you'll never have Xenon or Khaak among your neighbors.

Meanwhile want to ask if someone had a chance to use this map, being played in X3FL. It's 99.5% done, but I haven't got any feedback since then. Speaking about myself, I took a break from the game, so had no opportunity to play with it. But I have plans to return to playing this year (or may be even start a new game) and, lastly, provide the final multi language version.

[Terraformer33]

I visited 281 sectors, 330 hours, play time. The last one Cardinal's Domain gamma, I skipped him. Finally I have achievment Traveller.

Here you go...

Hi @X2-Illuminatus,
Do you know how I can log in to wiki? Looks like it uses a separate confluence account, not the same as this forum uses. I just want to put there X3 FL maps (EN, DE, PL, RU) in SVG format.

Thank you for the hint! I think I did my best there.

P.S. Could you be so kind and remove 4 files that start from "galaxy"? I forgot to rename them before uploading, so then uploaded new files with different names I wanted to have there.
