Custom worldmap not working as i want

Hi everyone ! I hope you are doing good.

I have try to fins some solution alone and with some poeple the discord, but didn't find the good awnser to fix the problem. I have made a custom wow expansion with noggit red on 3.3.5 server, and a graphist made me custom map for my dungeon and my new zone. I have a huge continent divided in 7 subzone. I have add the custom worldmap for  my 1st subzone, and did the same things for the 2nd zone, but when i'm in the 2nd zone and press M, it only display again the 1st zone map and i don't know why. I have try to check how it was made for easter kingdom  and kalimdor and did same but it's not working. Here is a screenshot about the DBC , i don't know what i'm doing wrong to make the 2nd map and the future map that i will add to display correctly.  So the screenshot with the sand is the 1st zone that work perfectly i will add too some screenshot with the  gps from Yoko bay ( sand ) and the 2nd zone .

Here it's Yoko Bay ( the map that work )

Here it's the GPS of the 2nd map that didn't work

And normaly on the 2nd zone it should display this map but it shows again the first one.

I foud the solution after many weeks, apparently you have to create a parent ID inside worldmaparea.dbc and then link all of your maps to it so it display correctly.

ah damn sorry mate, been out for a while but if it makes it any better. I've struggled with this for a few weeks aswell.

 

Was gonna write a small tutorial of how to fix it by using the main dbc and then the sub map dbc . But it seems you already got it, good work :)!
