PoryMap Help?

[IceGummi]

Hey, guys. I'm having some trouble figuring out how to use PoryMap. My specific issue is that I've successfully built pokeemerald (me considering that an accomplishment may cue you into how bad I am with computer science) and downloaded PoryMap 2.0.0, but I'm not really sure where to go from there. The only thing I can do (to my knowledge) is "Open Project", but it wont detect pokeemerald.gba as a "project", which leads me to believe that there's a different kind of file I should be looking for. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

My more broad question is: is anyone currently making a PoryMap tutorial, or does one exist that I just haven't managed to find? I am almost hopelessly bad at this kind of stuff, but making my own ROM Hack has been a dream since I was a child. I think an idiot-proof tutorial on how to use PoryMap would help me a lot.

Thanks, guys.

You want to use the folder that contains your cloned repository (probably called pokeemerald) as the project.

There is also very detailed documentation on how to use and get started with Porymap here: https://huderlem.github.io/porymap/manual/introduction.html#getting-started

Thank you! I didn't realize I was just supposed to select the folder and choose to make that my project, I thought it was one specific file I needed to open.

Thanks! I don't know how I never saw this part of github.
