ok open the map generator,then click file,click open,then open the Rom you are using
then there are two boxes,one on the right,and one on the left,click on the little arrow of the first box then click maps,then on the second box click the little arrow then choose wich map you want to use. 8) :)
(it doesn't tell you the map name,it just shows a number.)

Here see if this makes it easier:

1.Go to file

2.Click Load Rom

3.Choose the Pokemon Crystal Rom

4.Click Maps

5.Choose the map you want to edit


Map 296  through Map 337 are all city's except 337 its Silver Cave


Map 339 through Map 392 are Jhoto Routes


The rest are just Kanto towns and City's and Routes,i couldnt say wich mao is wich cuase they were mixed up hope that helps ;) 8)

I'm confused about loading maps, the ini editor, and Wild PKMN and Event Data.

Wild PKMN and Events:
1.) What is a PKMN address?
2.) I need help with event making, like a rival battle at any area

The Ini Editor:
1.) What are Categories?
2.) What's with Shown/Hidden?

Loading Maps:
1.) Every time I try creating a map, it says
"Attempt to access invalid address.
Load map first."
It's very confusing

I'm looking for gold or silver Hacking tools…
I already have golmap, Poke text editor, sprite editor and Starter pokemon editor
BUT, i need editors to edit trainers pokemon (especially GYM leaders) and more maps than the ones on Golmap.
