    If you cannot open the Rom, then it could unfortunately be corrupted. Depending on the program you used to edit tiles and tile animations, try to revert changes if possible. (search for a restore option or anything similar to that, or try restoring the block yourself the way it was before.) However, check if you have a .bak file of your Rom created somewhere (If Advance Map made a backup of your file) you could rename it to .gba and should be able to edit that (last saved file). Always make sure to create backups of your game before making certain changes so you don't have to build up from scratch.

    Example of restoring a backup:

    TestGame.bak ------> rename to "TestGame.gba"
