creating sci-fi themed maps

[Kandiell]

Im running my first game of starfinder in 2 weeks from now. my usual setup is a projector on the table connected to my laptop, from where i project the maps i make, move tokens as the pc's want, and handle combat. now there is a plethora of map-creating tools out there but as far as i found they are all medieval-fantasy based. does anyone know of a sci-fi map database/sci-fi map creator of any kind? the game approaches and i have to start building my maps lol. thanks for the help!

I know this is an old thread, but if you're still looking for a mapping program that does sci-fi, have a look at MapForge and the 10 sci-fi content Add-Ons currently available for it. Here's a link to 9 of them.

At least 4 more sci-fi Add-Ons should be available by the end of the year, if all goes well.

If you happen to own any of the Shadowrun computer games, it's a pretty easy matter to access the isometric graphics from the game and use them to make your own maps or handouts (say, for use in a Starfinder tabletop RPG campaign).

This video shows how to access the assets. And if you need map-making software capable of quickly and easily creating isometric maps, look here.
