This is "Apollo Program" by Gareth Richards, an example of an XPilot map created from a photograph.
At first glance, XPilot seems rather complicated, especially considering the number of key-bindings, the number of configurable options, and the variety of maps and modes of play. So-called "Newbie Guides" (like this one) aim to make understanding how to play XPilot a lot simpler by separating the advanced stuff (like configuration) from the novice stuff.
That said, this is not the only XPilot Newbie Guide—merely the newest. While I intend to include as much material for beginners as I can, it may not be complete for a while. I suggest you visit Jarno's Newbieguide; it was last updated in 2005, but still has a great wealth of information for new players. A Blood's Music-specific Newbie Guide was done by Angeba Mekelt; it can be found here.
My earliest attempt at a guide for XPilot was in 2000, when I was still a newbie myself! (It was basically just some reference pages of the items and objects, with descriptions of each.) Portions of this guide were from a rich-text guide I started in 2010, wryly called The Larvae's Guide to XPilot; others were originally part of the main XPilot page on this site.
