Tutorials at PPM Forums have been organized.
Subject description: You now have a smarter way to search them on our forums.
Hello everyone! In the latest weeks, we've been adding numerous features to our forums, such as the ability to Search the forums using Key Words, ability to fetch news that contains specific keywords, ability to show posts with certain Key Words on forums as "Related Topics", ability to set width and height of youtube and moddb videos BB code, among other things.
While the ability to fetch news with specific keywords is not being used yet, the keyword search and the Related Topics is getting more and more useful daily. We've recently finished to catalog all our tutorials (except for the ones in Miscellaneous Tutorials and Tiberian Sun Mapping Tutorials Factory.
If you use the Search, with the key words, you'll even find tutorials for other games where we don't even have tutorials forums for. Most of these tutorials are graphics related, since specific coding tutorials for these games were probably not published here yet. Wanna know a couple of samples? We have:
And there is much more. To find tutorials, you must use the Tutorials key word, exactly in the way it is written here. The Key Words must be written without spaces and respecting its capital letters. Use plural preferentially, instead of singular. I.e: if you want content about Red Alert 2, you should use the key word RedAlert2. You can use other key words together to restrict your search. I.e.: If you use Tutorials RedAlert2 Rules.INI, you will restrict your search for Rules.INI related tutorials for Red Alert 2.
And that's it for now. We are also indexing Voxels, SHPs, 3D Models and other resources. To catch files for download instead of finding tutorials, use the key word Download. Have fun and enjoy the forums.
great work Banshee
and my condolences for all the manual editing of hundreds of topics. _________________ SHP Artist of Twisted Insurrection: Nod buildings

Yea and I forgot to mention in the topic that I've restored the pictures and links from some of these tutorials. A big thanks to the Internet Archive: Wayback Machine. There was a single tutorial that I couldn't restore the pictures, which was one from Godwin. The domain with his pictures went offline too early on Wayback Machine's history and they've only backed up one of the pictures. It was a content of the site that I had to take it down, since that tutorial is useless without the pictures. QUICK_EDIT

Update: I've finished to index the Tiberian Sun Mapping Tutorials Factory. There were few repetitive tutorials that were not indexed. Also, one of the tutorials there lost of the original picture forever, but that picture did not seem to be critical for the tutorial at all. QUICK_EDIT
