I prefer the following XML snippets

This reduces Solo, Heroic, and Untold into one map that shares POIs. They're effectively the same map and POIs already. Raid is a separate dungeon with the same image, so that one stays separate.

That does seem to work to show to map in all three.

It doesn't share POIs for me though like that, and if I look in the core_mapstyles.xml all previous expansion zones to have separate solo, heroic and expert/heroic II though.

There aren't any "official" POIs yet, so the icon sharing won't be visible. In Scars of Destruction, I listed only one map for each dungeon set, rather than separating out Solo and Heroic. Older expansions have the separate Solo,Heroic,Expert split.

Corrected xml for the raid zone to be _raid_01_ instead of _01_raid_.

I did hit a snag here, i would like a unique name for the the 2 maps.
Like:

The Underdepths [Proving Ground] - (Upper)
The Underdepths [Proving Ground] - (Lower)
The Underdepths [Proving Ground] - (Lair)

Or whatever that fits.

Code:

<ImageStyle Name="exp22_dun_plane_of_avarice_01_0" displayname="Gerion: Ark of Ascension (Lower)" zonerect="-193, -624, 194, -173" heightmax="20">

Tested the new map today, and it only rendered in the Heroic dungeon. (Haven't tested the raid map). It's possible that the _0 and _1 suffixes used for multi-layer maps break the hack that allowed one map to cover multiple zones.

That might be it.
Should i add the rest then?

Yes please. Duplicating the POIs is far less annoying than not having any map.

Please correct the raid one as well to the xml in the first post, else that one won't work. My original post before I editted it, and thereby Benjcallaghan's got a typo in the imagestyle name.

I think all should ok now.
