Opinion Question

Is it illegal to use icons from another game in your wc3 map? The game is of course copy righted.

You're not selling the map, so they can't really ask for much.

Besides, it's a bloody icon, I doubt they care!

 

[zll7]

I was thinking the same thing. Especialy if they are from an older version.

Go right ahead! I believe quite a few people use icons from other games...even their music. Especially Final Fantasy-themed games.

As Alexander said, it's plenty ok. You're not selling it, so they don't give a crap. If you sell it for, say 20$ (assuming it's somehow that good) and it gets famous, then and only then will they care, since they would be very eager to take a percentage of you profit...assuming, as I said, there is profit. They wouldn't give a crap about 1000$ even, they'd care about millions.

 

[zll7]

Yeah right i doubt it will be that good...

Couldn't possibly be. Not even that Dragon game made by Darky would ever be THAT good. I think his downloads would have dropped to the floor if he charged even 5 or 10 bucks for the campaign.
