    Map Generator

    Does anyone know of a PC program that can generate Star maps in 3D?

    It's Full of Stars

    Also links on the front page to Cherryh 3D starmap generator and others.

    Enjoy,

    With all due respect to 'crow, I found "It's Full Stars" to be a bit quirky. Admittedly I'm still trying to learn all the ins and outs, but I have no real sense that I can control the scale of the map I'm generating. (I'd like to gen a Classic Traveller subsector truth be told).

    Might just be me.

    Are you talking real stars or what you place?

    I have a few links at home.

    IFOS is good and so is ChView aswell.

    Has anyone tried making a Star Trek starmap (based on the Atlas by Mandel) using IFOS?

    IIRC, doesn't the maker of Campaign Cartographer plan on cming out with a star-program?
