- Open a project containing ExplorerScript files (e.g. a
.skytemplefolder) and open any ExplorerScript (.exps) file. - Configure the path to your ROM in settings. The path can either be absolute or relative to the workspace directory (
{workspace folder}/rom.ndsis used by default).- In VS Code, navigate to File > Preferences > Settings (or Code > Settings > Settings on macOS), then configure the ROM path under Extensions > ExplorerScript > Rom Path. You can use the Workspace tab to configure a path specific to your current workspace.
