I've been trying to find out this exact same thing, since I wanted to make a Half-Life 2 level of Serenity.

After some googling, I found out that Fox actually hired someone to make an Unreal Tournament level of the ship, while the show was first being aired. Unfortunately, just like the show, the level's production ended prematurely, although screenshots can be found of the bridge and the first hallway. Here is the archived page of the site they had:
http://www.fireflyfans.net/firefly/gameproject.htm

The other thing I found was (I think) an Elite Forces map/mod someone was working on...let me know if you'd like the URL to that.

There should also be quite a few more threads on the forums here, they too might have more info.

Anyway, as mentioned, I'm working on a map myself, so far I've almost completed a very basic layout of the ship, with no textures or details yet...but I feel like it's coming along nicely.

I would like the URL to the Elite Forces mod if you don't mind. Also, how long do you think it will be before you finish the Half-Life 2.

Thanks

Still under construction, apparently.

GUNRUNNER - Interesting, I should take a look at that too, thanks.

HOLY CRAP, I want one for Freelancer.

Anyone know if there's a Freelancer mod that adds Firefly ships??

Oh, and as to when mine will be complete...very optimistically I would say end 2006. I tend to not have a whole lot of time to work on these kinds of projects, as much as I enjoy them. So realistically, it will be whenever I manage to freeze my aging process. Probably someone else will have one before then, though.

Serenity just needs a MMORPG like star wars galaxies or the matrix online. its the PERFECT setting and story to make onto a live community game. Imagine flying around with other browncoats...doing jobs, dodging reavers...meet up with badger....stab atherton wing (again)...would be awsome!

Any interest in collaborating on a Firefly Half-Life 2 level? I have many hours invested in Hammer, and I pay attention to minute details. I knew that somebody would be on top of this project already. You can email me at xiandavis@hotmail.com

Fox execs are fools
