Hi, Im new here, but I was thinking..how about a way, to selecte a couple of games and just see MOD UPDATES on the homepage pertaining to those games specificlly? Like if I only wanted updates on HL2, then thats all I would see is mod mews on mods for HL2.

Well..that ewoul be cool..an XML feed is like that. But what I meant was when you goto the main pag of MODDB, you can set inyour profile, to see only news pertaining to certain game.

There already is an RSS feed PraisetheWarMachine. Google RSS for more information, but Firefox and Trillian Pro have RSS readers, so you might already have one.

Opera also has that feature.

Wasn't sure, I stopped using Opera when it added the irc client, before actually.

OMFG! I CAUSED CHANGE! look! Now we can do just whatI specified above! Yay for me!

You didn't cause change. A lot of people have been bothering Intense to do this for a while. You're just one of those guys who came along before it was implemented.

Look, here are other threads based on the exact same thing:

So, you can see, I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but it's been requested so many times. It just takes INtense quite a while to code such a large system into Moddb. Filtering by news isn't a point-and-click process for him, seeing as how he built this whole thing from scratch. It causes much headache to make sure everything is right without a beta process, to say the least.
