Lets be honest the search function for this forum isn't so great. But thank goodness google is watching over everything we do so we can use google to search the forums.

Just type site:http://gmc.yoyogames.com then whatever you want to look for in google and it'll will show all the topics related to that!

So for example: "site:http://gmc.yoyogames.com 3d" would show anything related to 3d in the forum.

It just a little thing and most of you already know this but hopefully it will help some others out.

I think there was a thread about this same thing a few months ago, but generally it's true. When you want to find very specific things (or things that are below the search fields length limit) using googles 'site:' feature is the best thing to do.

I never use the forum search. It is so bad - it never shows me what I want, and doesn't even have a 'sort in order of relevance' option! Personally, I would never use it unless YYG greatly improved it...

it's not up to Yoyo to improve it. Please contact IP.Board for that.

No truer words, my friend. No truer.
