Hi,
I am trying to add a new icon for a location to the world map. On the screenshot the tower is` Orgrimmar`, the circled house icon is `Crossroads`.
I searched the quiet some time but since I cannot find a solution, I am asking here for advise.
I am running the server with AzerothCore.
I stumbled upon my search on the `AreaPOI.dbc` and tried by adding a new entry with no avail. Then tried altering an existing entry with no avail. I believe that this was not the correct way.
I hope anyone can guide me, thank you!

Did you put the dbc files in a patch and in the server data folder as well?

thank you.
I figured out it is saved in the `AreaPOI.dbc` the issue was that I did not notice that other `.mpq` files were overwriting my changes and basically reverted back to default values
