I'm not sure if they are out there, and frankly if I had an ounce of knoledge on how to start a website I'd do one myself, but has anyone out there ran across any websites with a good selection of floor-plans? I know it's not that darn hard to come up with on your own, I've probly made a binders worth in my years of on and off gameing, but it seems that most fan-sites stay primarily devoted to arms, equipment and spells. It'd be nice to have a good site to fall back on when the PCs throw the proverbial wrench in my well laid plans and deside to take cover in nearest building. Guess I'm could just use a little inspiration.

Outside of Websites, I'd look at the Shadowrun Missions and the old Sprawl Sites book. Ghost Cartels, On the Run, and the upcoming Dawn of the Artifacts all have maps in them as well.
Method has posted maps to his PhotoBucket Site. If you search back through using Maps or Floorplan as a keyword, there are plenty of threads to discuss this in further length. |

This is where I went for my SR maps. Very handy. Not too bad a price, too. |

http://www.whitleyman.com/casestudy/office/index.html Here's two sites I found (and have used extensively) by doing a quick search. I really don't try to save all this stuff for use, I just go out and find a couple sites, look them over then download what I need. After importing it into adobe and overlaying a hex grid over it, I have all that I need! |

RPGnow has quite a few the ones that I really like are distributed by 12 to Midnight...Modern Floorplans. At about $3 a pop they are not a bad buy and they have enough variety to cover a lot of different locations.
I have a number of floorplans that I have acquired through various web searchs. For houses, you can't really beat on of those books of floorplans that are on sale at Lowes or Home Depot. Hope that helps. |

The files I've collected over the years are available in an archive at: http://www.chibu.net/shadowland/Maps.rar
It's about 12 MB, and has a decent amount of stuff in it. Do note, however, that none of these are made by me, nor do I remember where they came from. Most of them are cool though. |

After importing it into adobe and overlaying a hex grid over it, I have all that I need! Both excellent sites, but Whitley Man is really superb in the range of floorplans that they have! If nothing else, it provides some excellent inspiration for making your own. As far as making your own maps, I think that Campaign Cartographer is one of the best programs out there...still. Campaign Cartographer There is a learning curve, at least for older guys like me but once you figure it out you can do a lot of different maps. |
