Creating new map sections

Hi all,

I'm trying to create a new map section in pokeemerald. To specify, I'm not merely adding a new map, which I know can easily be done with the current version of Porymap, but also a new section. I'm having a bit of a trouble: I can make the new map section appear within Porymap and everything compiles without errors, it's just that the name of the map is not displayed in-game at all when I enter the map. Also, any wild pokémon caught within that map has a location of "somewhere". The map name popup has a wooden theme, no matter what I do. I have modified the following files:

include/constants/region_map_sections.h
include/constants/map_groups.h
src/landmark.c
src/map_name_popup.c
src/data/region_map/region_map_entries.h

I have tried to understand all the files where map sections are defined and referenced, but I'm quite out of luck. If anyone knows more about this, I would be very grateful for your help!
