I've done a bit of reading, and I noticed these zones are instanced. Is this referring to each instance, IE there can only be up to 8 instances of a dungeon at a time, or are these dungeons all separate but underneath the same name because of differences in level or something?

I didn't see a reply to you about this, and not sure if you figured it out yet. But each of the
'a through whatever' maps for each of the ldon types
(ie: mmca, mmcb, mmcc...) is a seperate map itself with a different layout design.
The difference in levels was based off of some code that checked the group's level. On the emu, unless you add the code youself, it will not do that. It will simply accept the mobs you place inside it, whatever level they may be.
Each of the zones can be used all at once (mmca, mmcb..) with no ill effect. But if you want more than one of a certain type (mmca + another mmca), you will probably need to change the zone files names to something else and load that new name as a seperate zone.
(rename a copy of mmca files into MeanVampCity.whatever). Of course, then you would need to load the 'new' zone files into each client that would need to access that 'new' zone.
I hope that helped + I hope I didn't have some conceptual error myself during that. Someone check me.. You know how I am!
