don't know if its been asked before.......is it feasable to arrange to find a way to get info that has been submitted here on a particular subject by entering the subject matter?..... some kind of search engine? or is it too difficult or costly. would save alot of repetitions.............cheers, vic

thanks pete, ok, i wanted to find out which are the best water effects, which are compatable and which not etc. so i entered water effects.........nothing......someone  must have placed water, or effects in subject matter. but no go. so the search in the forum seems useless unless i'm missing something, which is the usual case..............regards, vic.

ok, i still may be doing something wrong......yes, i entered water effects or water textures for fs2004, and i got a few results in august. but will it bring up the various threads or whatever since the beginning of the forum connected with that subject? maybe i'm missing something here.............  thanks, vic.

maybe people should be encouraged to narrow down the topic first, followed by a statement about it, if needed. (to nail down their request and therefore make it easier to find that topic in search). a request like this this could be placed always at the top of the forum? anyways, thanks for your kind attention, cheers, vic.

oops. ...i missed the time entries at the bottom....see..my mind only used 1 gig at a time. thanks for your patience....vic. at least i know now to narrow down the subject matter on the forum.

You should narrow the search to the specific forum & set a time limit - otherwise yes you are searching too much ..
