I have been working on an XP command to generate a system map for my conversion of Buck Rogers XXVc to D20. It's coming along, but it's not complete. The game relies on dates so that distances between bodies changes, and thus so do trade and politics. I'll share this once it's finished.

I know you weren't asking for surface maps, but I do have a remake of a spaceport from that game. (I just noticed a few mistakes, so sharing this might be a good thing.)

Have you tried JPG? I understand the thought that it's not perfect, but with the right settings I find that it works very well. Try different compression levels. I think that might be something worth looking at.

Good luck.

(This is for future people searching for this topic. I don't want CC3+ to come across as anything but stable to those looking in from the outside.)

1. Yes, it was exactly that straightforward for me.
2. The "tin" never promised WINE.
3. CC3+ has been very stable for me in a few different situations including WINE on a Macbook. Actually, it's been 2 Macbooks, since I migrated CC3+ to a new model recently.

Again, this is for future people searching for "CC3 in WINE." It works well for me.

Hello. Did you install the Visual C runtime? I seem to recall having to do that.

I will leave that to Xargun, as that is the owner of the maps. I also refrained from posting them here to avoid spoilers for the players!

I was asked to do everything but the roads, settlements, and labels. That left just the basics to do. I had a lot of fun doing it.

An interesting note: We selected SS1b as the style. I used that for everything including the symbols. I eventually split some things into their own sheets, like the hills vs mountain areas. I think I made my own river style based on the existing lake style. The point is that I used only what was in that style and nothing outside of it. Rather, I tried to do that. I somehow got some Darklands hill symbols in there. I don't know how that happened. It turned out to be good because the hills went well on that map. The downside was Xargun had to buy that annual. (Though I think one can never have too many annuals.)
