Since you talk about "old maps" - are you using the new map system? We don't support the old one anymore since TSO. You can toggle that under options -> user interface -> map

But you do have the eq2map interface, i.e. the dropdowns with all the maps, the path, submit, report buttons, etc.?

also just talked to a friend who is having the same issue. in further testing if i do go to ant or nek and look at the the drop down menu (one of the top left) it just says current zone and i cannot choose other zones like i could before, also the map is all black like it is using the eq2 maps not the eq2 interface maps

I can't reproduce it, I tried with a clean install of EQ2MAP and I can zone into both Stormhold or the Antonica Tier 3 guildhall just fine, get the map, and the menu. You guys didn't use /loadui or anything like that, did you? Otherwise maybe just rerun the updater and try again?

i use the standard ui had another friend log in and not update and his maps are fine.
the only thing i do with my ui is use the standard load buttons on alt o for my raid settings but i dont use profit or anything else.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled eq2maps removed the eq2 maps folder from the ui folder reinstalled again and have also done a full file scan on eq2.
is it possible there is a corrupt file not being deleted or not pointing to the correct eq2maps dir

I tested this both with a clean installation on the default UI and with my standard installation on ProfitUI, both updated 15 minutes ago, worked fine on both.
Maybe just try again - we added a map earlier today, maybe you managed to update just when that went up on the server, although that should not cause any problems.
The only reason why the dropdown could be empty would be if you had deleted the file eq2map2\core_mapstyles.xml - however the updater would redownload this file so that can't really be it.

That actually sounds as if you had been updating to the wrong eq2 folder (because 500+ files means it was also download the \POI and \images\maps folders which you didn't say you had deleted). Anyway glad it works.

Hi,
i have the same problem. I have eq2map 1.2.3 and i update it before i run EQ2 every day. When i log in this evening some maps where gone. Some zones work without poi, nsc and some zones dont have a map, when i first loged on 12:00 the all zones work fine, after the evening update the zones dont work.
I have remove eq2map from my system, clear all the folder, restart system and make a new installtion, but it dont works.
Update
Overlandzones work without poi, nsc and instances maps dont works.

I might have some clarification...
Had similar issue the other nite in Chardok, however it was like the "un-explored overlay map" had somehow been replaced by the "no map for this zone" image.
As soon as i started moving throughout the zone, the real map revealed itself.
I'll look into my installation tonite, make sure I haven't stuffed something up.
great mod btw =)

If it's a blank map background with the EQ2MAP logo, that's the "unexplored overlay map" for dungeons (only the overland zones have the shaded brownish map image as the overlay).
