Could someone please help me out with this issue I'm having with my Pokémon Firered rom?
I started changing the map of Pallet Town in Advanced Map. The biggest changes I did was changing the tileset from 1 to 3 (3 is the Pewter City tileset, since I wanted to add the Pewter Museum) and I also made the map a bit bigger. I didn't change any scripts, nor places where they occur, I didn't move anything around... all I did was changing the map a bit.
So... the problem. When I tested it out, I get to the intro of Professor Oak. All is good at that point. Right after the intro, I appear in my house in Pallet Town, upstairs, but instead of appearing in front of the SNES, I appear left of my bed. When I go downstairs and out of the house, everything's black and the game is unplayable. I made a backup before changing the map, and when I tested that one out, so without any changes to Pallet Town, it worked just fine.
Here's the video of the issue i'm having:

if anybody wants to try out the game, send me a pm and I'll upload the file. I'll be testing out a few more things myself as well.
Edit: Apparently this happens because I changed the size of the map. This never happened on the Pokémon Ruby hack I made before though... Any way to fix this?
not quire sure why you start off in a different place, same thing happened to me when i was editing pallet town but i was doing scripting instead of map making... anyway this may sound obvious but you should double check on the warps and make sure its going to the right place, this happens to a lot of people even though its so simple... i also advise u make sure your 'door' that you're exiting into your new pallet town has the right behaviour bytes (block editor... if its not the standard door in the map)... if u want to check whether its the map and not another issue, you should start a normal fresh game, save in game in the first route then overrite that game gba. file (to the one u edited with new pallet town) and walk down into the route and see what happens...
okay so in my hack after beating the league the second time prof. oak is supposed to walk up to you and tell you that johto is now open bla bla bla...
ive done some testing and it seems my problem is that i dont have a working flag that indicates that the league has been beaten twice... i was using 'checktrainerflag 0x2E5' (as u have to fight THIS particular new improved gary), but when i beat him theres no difference... can someone help me? or tell me a better usable flag, cause there seems to be none :(
