[Tool✓] How do I open my rom with porymap?

[Splitnonemore]

Im a little scared theres no tutorial. It looks like a little experience with advanced maps would go a long way though. Is it going to need me to use cygwin?

You cant open your rom with PoryMap, the tool is made to open and edit the decompiled source files. So unless you are already working with the decomp, its not the programm you are looking for.

I have pokeemerald. Can I use porymaps like advanced maps?

You can open your disassembly in PoryMap by going to File > Open Project and navigate to your pokeemerald folder. It's best you use the word disassembly instead of rom hack so not to confuse ppl. Also, just tweaking around with stuff is the best way to learn, (unless you've done all you can to try to fix the problem, then ask away). If you do make edits ,I recommend you make backups with git commits. Goodluck in the future!

Awesome Thankyou! What if I didn't want to have my game public?

You don't have to push your commits. git commit just saves things locally, git push is what makes them public.
