[Solved] Issue with Area ID's. Rather frustrated atm lol

[Kranimal]

I went thru a couple of different tutorials on area ID's and such for custom maps and I completed 1 area ID for my custom map. Able to bring it up in-game and The Map ID, Zone ID, and Area ID all showed up just fine when I typed in .gps.

Now the problem I am having is when I do another zone that is child to that one, example below:

Map.dbc 1000 is Arcana and it is linked to 5000 in the Areatable.dbc
Areatable.dbc 5000 is called Coltaria, and this is where everything works fine, this next part is what breaks the relationship that's is going on atm.

Areatable.dbc 5001 (Kingston) who's Parent is 5000 is breaking the relationship. (Is it cause the map.dbc isn't linked to it like in 5000?

any help would be much appreciated.

Incase your not clear what I am trying to say I have uploaded my DBC files for you to download and check out to maybe see what I am doing wrong?

Any help would be greatly appreciated here as I am getting very frustrated with this lol.

(trying to get it so I properly have my mapid, zone ID and area id when I type .gps ingame (the names still show up but when I make the child it breaks it)

EDIT: Figured out what the issue was, I was using Talis to do it and it didn't work, I went and used MyDBC Editor doing the exact samething I did in Talis and it worked perfectly.... So I think Talis might have been screwing something up. For future ref. anybody doing this I would use MyDBC Editor for it not Talis (at least that what happened to me .

Cheers =D

If I remember correctly sub zones area ids have to have a map entry in the area table DBC.  Im at work and cant check your exact setup, but id try that first.

I have the strings put in for the specific zones I am wanting

in the Areatable.dbc Coltaria (The Zone) is 34750 and Kingston (The Town) is 34741

In the map.dbc I have Arcana pointing to the zone Coltaria (5000 in areatable.dbc)
In the areatable.dbc I have 5000 Coltaria (mapID 1000 = Arcana in map.dbc) Parent area is 0 cause there isn't one
5001 Kingston (MapID = 1000) Parentarea = 5000

is how I have it setup so it should look like this

Map = Arcana, Zone = Coltaria, Area = Kingston

I assuming that is correct lol... not to sure

EDIT: I am off to work now but will check the thread when I get back (pulls hair out )
