Could anyone recommend, or make some music for me to use in my Map? There are a few Requirements.

It has to be fast paced.
It has to be something you can listen to for some time without going insane.
Preferably it would relay either action and battle, or Magic and spells.

But I dont know how to rip the music from my Games!

Also Does anyone know a Site where people actually help out? Cause I ain't getting shit here. It seems like almost everyone's Being held at gun point and ordered not to help me.

Music is a very difficult aspect of modding, so it's not surprising that there's nobody responding. Creating a brand new piece of music, let alone one that sounds good, is bloody difficult.

Also consider that maybe people genuinely don't know the answers to your queries?

I Asked why a Modded Locust Swarm wouldnt work a while back and I had to Ritually Sacrifice a Kitten to get a response. And I requested some Icons a few days ago and only freakazoid responded. Noone even asked for specifications, Or said they might be interested, Or anything else remotely aidful. Generally Speaking people act as If my posts do not exist.

By the Way I like your maps. Cant find that bloody white murloc though. He's in that patch of flowers by the wendigo right?

He certainly is, but that's off-topic.

On the subject of requests, artists need serious poking to get them to do anything. Fact of life. A better strategy would be to make friends with a few and either get them to teach you how to do it yourself or poke them in a one-to-one manner.

I know an Iconer/Skinner, But he's not particularly skilled yet, and I have yet to train him. He likes neon stuf... I need a professional. Hell the Icons dont even need to be that Customized. As long as they fit what I asked for you can take an existing icon slap a border on it and call it a day.

As for the Music I asked for either, Suggestions for musics that might be of use. From a game, A Band, Anything really. OR someone to volunteer to help me out by making one.

I Know I gotta get some respect going here before I can get things done faster but Come ON! This stuff Is ridiculously simple requests! I'm not requesting 50 models and a Cake. I'm requesting a Dozen Icons and some Music. Original or otherwise!

Off Topic: How do I lure the little guy out? Tried everthing I can think of.

All I can say is; you need to shed some light on the situation. Check with the barman.

Well, if you're needing simply modified warcraft icons, you can probably do it yourself. Got PSP or Photoshop or something?

Music, well, you could always find a nice Tracker or some MIDI software and have a go yourself.

Thanks.

No I dont have anything to fool around with it.

Same as above. If I could do it myself I wouldnt be asking.

Look around a bit. I'm reasonably sure there are freeware and/or trial versions of decent 2D art editors that you can get a hold of.

And there's definitely free music software. I would link you to the tracker I use, but I got it yeeeeaaars ago and the site I obtained it from is dead.

Maybe I'll just dust off my poke-inator 5000 and start poking artists.

Also Im not sure how to Yank the Basic Attack and Armor Icons from the Game to alter em.

Dual Weilding Dragon's Tooth + Off hand Fire Blade = Pain. Hehehe.

The poke-inator 5000 is a good idea, but don't poke too hard or they'll run for the hills.

Its just the 5000. Its the 9000 with 2 Fingers, And the 40k is the Poke Cannon.

So how Would I go about prodding an Artist into helping me? Should I just throw a Dart and go Pester them until they cave?

Ask politely. Be very polite.

Exactly. If someone would come to me like: "Do this or die, bitch!" not only I'd ignore him, but I would most likely find out where he lives and kill him.
