I noticed this as well but I also noticed that at times they colors would flash. For a split second it would appear the class coloring is working and then it is over written back to white.
It looks like the culprit is in Blizzard's WorldMapFrame.lua:
function MapUnit_OnUpdate(self)
local texture = getglobal(self:GetName().."Icon");
if ( texture ) then
if ( MapUnit_IsInactive(self.unit) ) then
texture:SetVertexColor( 0.5, 0.2, 0.8);
else
texture:SetVertexColor( 1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
end
end
end
... I *think* this is there to support the 'afk in battlegrounds' feature, where 'inactive' players change color. It basically resets the color every time the map updates. Unfortunately, it sets it to that hardcoded value of (1,1,1)
If you don't care for that feature, and want your colors back:

thanks a lot, and i second hardcore option for that.

I's so sorry, but I am new to the forum. Ive had cartographer for a while now and never had any problems. Since i no longer have the class colored circles I came here to find out why and how to fix them. I still have no clue how. Im reading this topic and it seems you have came up with a solution? or maybe not? i dont know. lol. Is there a fix? or did topic get set aside till later.. And who's reply do i look for to see the "offical" its fixed reply..
Sorry again to sound so newbish but what i can do. Im not going to lie. Ive not had to mess with scripts or anything before so I know nothing about them either. I will contiune to watch forums in hope that someone as basic as me goes: here it is.
bring back the diversity!
when *not* grouped/raided, i can see my guildy cartographer users in their class colors.
as soon as i group or raid with someone, everyone's dots turn white.
hope this info helps!

this works fine, but is there a way to hardcore this, or do i have to run that script manually every time i load up WoW?

No problem with the normal map.
Any solution for this ?
