Bahger Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 The answer to this must surely be staring me in the face but I cannot figure out how (or even if) the BF Repository allows the user to filter uploads by type, i.e. in my case, scenario files only. And is it possible to refine a search further (i.e. too identify scenario files designed for PDEM, etc.)? I will delete this thread and go stand in the corner if I figure it out before anyone gives me the answer. Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I will delete this thread and go stand in the corner if I figure it out before anyone gives me the answer. Thanks! Well that will not happen - the thing is very hard to deal with. Rumour has it there are some improvements to the web site in the works but we have not heard any recent updates on that. Sorry I have no real advice to give you - I have only ever found things on there by brute force or blind luck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburke Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Actually the search does work depending on what you are looking for. You can search by titles, descriptions or author. You can't search by type but theoretically people will have uploaded to the correct folder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am astonished that the database is not searchable by type. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lethaface Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 For CMBS there is no apart folder for scenario's in the repository. There is for other titles though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahger Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Thanks, guys. Amazing. I am not going to trudge through the Repository without being able to sort by type or even stars given by users. This is a pity as I was looking forward to finding great new scenarios but they'll have to bring the database search function up to the bare minimum standards first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George MC Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 You can see new scenarios appearing on the bottom left. If it's new stuff you are after? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 We are working on a replacement. You guys have no idea how difficult it is to find a better replacement AND have it work AND have it not cause us to swear at it even before it's up and running. OK, now you have some idea Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahger Posted July 24, 2015 Author Share Posted July 24, 2015 Many thanks for responding, Steve, much appreciated. In the meantime, announcements on this forum of new content by its creators seems to be the best way to identify scenarios, etc. that one might want to download. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thewood1 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 How about just buying the framework of GreenasJade or the Scenario Depot? I mean, out of the box, they are far better than the current repository on its best day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bootie Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 The Scenario Depot III is running well now albeit I still need folk to submit their scenario so we can get a good database of CMx2 content there. Also, The Proving Grounds II is due for release in the very near future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bootie Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Show me a single forum that covers CMx2 and I will happily post a single post in there otherwise to cover all bases Im afraid I have to go into each version of the game and post. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahger Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 You mind not spamming the same message all over the forum in the process? If Shane is kind enough to fill a large hole in the scenario database support currently offered by BF's own web site, then he is performing a valuable service. I do not regard his attempts to popularize this service as spam and I intend to support it fully. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bootie Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Thank you Bahger and I do apologise for anyone whose feathers I have ruffled. I was under the impression my duplicate posts would be easy enough to avoid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobo Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Thank you Bahger and I do apologise for anyone whose feathers I have ruffled. I was under the impression my duplicate posts would be easy enough to avoid. They are and thank you for putting resurrecting the scenario depot!
