What am I doing wrong?

I'm making maps for The Vaults of El'Arad.

The file most recently modifed file in iocache when I'm in the zone is

exp02_rgn_realm_of_dawn+exp02_dun_shrines_of_sky_epic01_vaults.iop

The zonerect from the spreadsheet is

ZONERECT -107.06 -45.41 138.94 170.9

I put the two attached maps in my EQ2MAP\images\maps directory and added the following to my core_mapstyles.xml

<ImageStyle Name="exp02_dun_shrines_of_sky_epic01_vaults" zonerect="-107, -45, 139, 171" heightmax="20">
<ImageFrame Name="imageFrame" Source="images/maps/map_exp02_dun_shrines_of_sky_epic01_vaults_0.dds" SourceRect="0,0,436,506"/>
</ImageStyle>
<ImageStyle Name="exp02_dun_shrines_of_sky_epic01_vaults" zonerect="-107, -45, 139, 171" heightmin="20">
<ImageFrame Name="imageFrame" Source="images/maps/map_exp02_dun_shrines_of_sky_epic01_vaults_1.dds" SourceRect="0,0,436,506"/>
</ImageStyle>

I see the problem.

You need to have a _0 and _1 in the NAME property for a two part map. Do as below and you should be golden.

<ImageStyle Name="exp02_dun_shrines_of_sky_epic01_vaults_0" zonerect="-107, -45, 139, 171" heightmax="20">
<ImageFrame Name="imageFrame" Source="images/maps/map_exp02_dun_shrines_of_sky_epic01_vaults_0.dds" SourceRect="0,0,436,506"/>
</ImageStyle>
<ImageStyle Name="exp02_dun_shrines_of_sky_epic01_vaults_1" zonerect="-107, -45, 139, 171" heightmin="20">
<ImageFrame Name="imageFrame" Source="images/maps/map_exp02_dun_shrines_of_sky_epic01_vaults_1.dds" SourceRect="0,0,436,506"/>


</ImageStyle>

That worked, thanks!

Next question, how do I fix the alignment? Is there an easier way than going into the zone and checking the map location vs the actual location? If not, is there a way to reload the map location without restarting EQ2? If not, I have to wait 30 mins to go back in every time I log out because of the lockout timer.

Use my mapper2.pl tool which will put crosses on the corners of your images and their in-game /loc values (Upper Left x/y, Lower Right x/y). Pull the bitmap x/y values off your final image. Then use Taco's zonerect calculator tool. After you calculate the zone-rect, hide the crosses. I typically get it right the first time, every time.

If you have someone with you in the zone, in your group, and you /quit out, it should let you back in to the same zone. That's how I was able to do DFC without waiting several weeks.
