    Hello guys, I hope you can help me with my problem.

    I'm working on a ROM Hack of FireRed and I added a few new maps, connected them to existing maps, etc, everything works fine regarding that.
    Now I added new names to the map name bank so my new maps have unique names.
    I clicked on the last row in the name bank, clicked on add new and repointed it so it has its own new value.
    I also made sure that in the map header, the map is using that newly created value / name.
    Everything looks fine, I added the correct XY coordinates and everything, but now to my problem.

    Once I enter the map ingame, it shows an empty box on the upper left corner, so the name is not being displayed correctly. To make it even worse, once I open the Town Map, the game crashes, even though I added the correct XY coordinates. My new map is located above Pewter City, which has the XY coordinates 4/4 iirc so I typed in 4/3 for my new map. The width/hight value is set to 1x1.
    The game only crashes when I'm located in the new map but it doesn't crash when I'm in any one of the vanilla maps.

    Literally everything looks like it's set up correctly. This is my first ROM hack and I had fun creating new content and everything but the name bank situation is driving me nuts. I have no experience and I found no solution online, so I sincerely hope you guys somehow are able to help me.

    If you need any further information, I'll gladly provide it to you or even send you the ROM itself.
