Various troubleshooting stuff:
1) Was there just ugly solid blocks of color instead of a map?
2) Were there still loc icons and the buttons to change floors?
3) Was there a current map tab while you were in Stormhold?
If 1 and 2, you probably are missing the map .DDS files for Stormhold somwhow.
If 3 there's something wrong with your map XML file.
If your problem is unrelated to those questions try and give me a detailed explanation.

1) No solid blocks of color, just a black background.
2) Yes, all the loc icons and mapchange buttons were there.
3) I didn't notice if the current map tab was showing, but I assume so.. it WAS attempting to show a map..
As far as missing the dds files, I don't think I am.. I have the files that were distributed with the first 'release' in my images folder.
map_stormhold.dds and
map_stormhold2.dds are there, along with all the other maps that work properly.
The map XML file I'm using is the latest one I've seen posted here in this thread.
Note that this issue is not a new problem. I've always had this problem with the Stormhold maps, but I had always just assumed that it was something that would get fixed eventually, so I didn't mention it. I say this so that you don't think that it had anything to do recent patches.
Edit: Okay, I'm an idiot. I had deleted my entire mod directory and repopulated it a few nights ago, and when I unzipped the 'advanced map' mod, I had just assumed it would create the proper directory structure in my images folder. So, I didn't have the map dds files in the images/maps directory - my bad.
I will try Stormhold again and see if I am still having problems.
