Description This is a VERY VERY VERY rough (and colorful) attempt at piecing together Sauria (also known as Dinosaur Planet) from Star Fox. Exact land shapes had to be modified to incorporate areas that were nixed from the final SFA game. I also had to interpret a bit from the text rips people have found, and just guess where certain things were, etc. This was the result and I'm sorry if you don't 100% approve of it, but this is what I'm gonna be working with. I might edit where the Golden Plains are located, but, to me, there was no feasible place to put a huge-ass desert in the middle of this side of the planet. But, IDK, I'm up for suggestions on that.

Notes
- Swapstone Hollow and Swapstone Circle were not added because Swapstones were canonically replaced by the Warpstone. And they were mostly there as a game function, so I saw no reason to put them in.
- The Northern Waste was also made different from the SnowHorn Wastes for reasons. I see the Northern Wastes as being a more inhospitable location. Completely flat, almost devoid of life. The SnowHorn Wastes are basically the foothills of Ice Mountain in the game, so I felt like making the Northern Wastes a bit different.
- The Desert Force Point Temple doesn't exist in this map since it was canonically replaced by the Ocean (?) Force Point Temple.
- The mountain you pass underneath to get between ThornTail Hollow and SnowHorn Wastes is now Warlock Mountain. I don't really know if people classify that as a mountain. But it made sense at the time I was making this map.
- Cape Claw and Diamond Bay are REALLY FUCKING BIG, and I kind of feel like I should shrink them down a bit. Might do that later.
- EarthWalker Temple and Walled City are two different places, or at least I got that impression via the text rips.


Also, feel free to use this, interpret it different, make it pretty and not a cheap MSP map, whatever. I'm mostly using this for my own reference for later story stuff for The Fires of War. If you can't see it very well, try downloading? I'm horrible at figuring out how to submit stuff... too many buttons...

Doesn't look like a bad template for the planet map, and can help give an idea for more details than what was provided in the game.

Very nice, although I wonder why you didn't think of putting some landmasses on the other side of the planet?
