Going to try it, thanks a lot.

EDIT3: Its OK now, so, for all other guys, if you use MyDBCEditor, save that DBC once in Taliis to make this actually work. MyDBCEditor seems to be broking a bit both areas and zones, keeping some of the original data from rows you were using if you were adding new rows by copying some old ones. My areas and zones were made as copies of Stromgarde area, Arathi Highlands zone and you can see on screen how it ended while I did this with MyDBCEditor.

I don't know what exactly is areabit because I was looking for some information and I couldn't find it. Maybe schlumpf knows, I think the value is coded in source.

Im going to edit post to use Taliis instead MyDbcEditor. Yes, I used taliis to edit myareatable.dbc, but for the rest of dbcs MyDbcEditor works better than taliis I think.

Finally, was your problem solved?

Ah you wrote in your tutorial your mapextractor.exe dont read DBC files! - he do he load dbc folder in my wow client folder with all dbc files.

you send the right mapextractor?

I didn't realize that the dbc folder was already created in my directory, so the extractor couldn't extrac it :P.

About your problem, I think its not *.map problem, I think your map.dbc or areatable.dbc aren't correctly edited or maybe you painted the AreaID of the other zone in the map.

Can you post a pic of map.dbc, areatable.dbc and areaid value of the adt? (If you don't know how to see the areaid in the adt post the adts or send me pm if you want.)

Here is my Patch.MPQ: http://nefarian-wow.com/files/patch-4.rar

I wrote the tutorial to solve the problem that you have xD.

As you can see in your areatable:

http://gyazo.com/21d7c33905490e3a0b7d12f81fe6bd48

Column number #3 (with value 3617) MUST BE unique, it CAN'T be repeated, so use value 3618 in ID 5000 and use 3619 in ID 5001 for example.

This should solve your problem.

Don't forget to insert your new areatable in patch-xxXX-3.MPQ and reextract the maps, then replace old maps with your recent extracted maps.

Ferreon.
