Hey there! Recently I started a project on TBC (2.4.3 rev.).

When you enter in a dungeon on TBC and you press "m" your character don't appear on the world map and you don't have the map of the instance like in The Lich King of newer expansion.

My goal is to add the dungeon map so the player will know where he is.

I succesfully added my Worldmap, when I press "m" I have the good worldmap, I took for instance the Sunwell raid as you can see :[Image: WoWScrnShot_092018_153930.thumb.jpg.277f...3d4b06.jpg]

But the thing is I don't know how to fill the positions needed in the DBC Worldmaparea, the positions are requiered to tell to the client : your player is here so you are here on the map" like here :

If anybody knows, feel free to send a PM ! [Image: smile.png]

Take X and Y coordinates of your north-west border of map (say X1, Y1), then take X and Y (say X2 Y2) coordinates of your south-east border of map.  And just fill them into the WorldMapArea.dbc just as wiki says - Left Y (Y1), right Y (Y2), left X (X1) and right X (X2). You must use server coordinates not client coordinates.
