September 10, 200421 yr I'm not certain if there are personal settings to change the way search results are displayed but, I find the default format difficult to use. I think the search results would be less intimidating if the the search results would display only the forum titile and the topic heading. It's easier to sift through topic headings for what you're looking for than full posts. Imagine how many dimes HP is written in a post. http://www.threedy.com/site/forum/index.php this is a forum I commonly use. Give this search function a try. Search "normal mapping". You will see the topic, and forum it's in at a glance to decide if it might be what you're looking for. As things are, I imagine you are getting a lot of duplicate posts since the search function here is difficult to use. If it's as easy as changing how search results are displayed, can you put something in the faq and point me to it by replying here.
September 10, 200421 yr you can search by individual forums, groups of fora (ie all the SW fora) or by everyplace. it is just laid out differently from vbulletin (which is what the other boards are), but you can click for fora you want to seach here also.
September 10, 200421 yr The biggest problem with the search is that it won't accept words under 4 letters, so with a RPG boards and the prevalence of acronyms, searching can be tricky or even impossible.
