Got way too much on my plate right now, also I'm burned out at ripping sprites - I did a slew of them for the Anime-Video Game Smorgasbord BoR mod in the works.

...very carefully. hehe, naa. It all depends, getting the sprites from the NeoGeo Eightman game was a total pain, I used Kawaks and just shut off sprite layers I didn't need and took screen shots. Lupin III and Ghost Sweeper Mikami sprites were taken with ZSnes, again just turning off the background layers and taking screen shots. The Tetsuwan Atom (Astro Boy) sprites I took from the Gameboy Advance game via Visual Boy Advance. I'd input the attack or movement I wanted (sometimes taping down a function on my control pad) and then go into the options of VBA where you can see the sprites - most Astro Boy sprites were in four parts, I saved each and then later reassembled them. Like everyone said, it's a LOT of work, but once you have quality fluid sprites that's the first step (and probably the biggest step) to creating an awesome mod.

What about use the sound tracks files from the game Metal Axe ?

"Metal Axe" is the arcade Golden Axe with heavy metal mixed tracks, very good work made by Mega Driver band !

A good idea for sprites are the Golden Axe 2 from the arcades - Golden Axe - The Return of Death Adder.

Maybe, but I'd prefer the ones from Golden Axe: The Duel (Arcade STV/SEGA Saturn)

Great music too! Also check out MIDIs from Golden Axe 3 or the CDDA soundtrack of Golden Axe 1 (SEGA CD)

The link to Mega Driver is cool - I'll check their music now
