What's your hacking process?

Sensual

    For the hackers out there, what is your hacking process? I usually follow something similar to:

    1. Features that effect the basic functions of the game (running indoors, player facing, etc)
    2. Dex editing (expanding dex, editing Pokemon data, etc)
    3. Uncompressed images (OWs, trainer sprites)
    4. Compressed images (titlescreen, professor intro, menus, etc)
    5. Tiles
    6. Mapping
    7. Events

    Course I don't always follow this exactly, but that's the gist of it. That being said, I ALWAYS do steps 1 and 2 first. Those are the features that a prone to causing bugs and stay the same throughout the entire process. I figure its best to get them out of the way first.

    So yeah, post a general process if this applies to you. Any particular reason for the process that you choose? Curious about what everybody else does.
