So today marks the first day of the public beta for the collection tool. While it's not complete, it is in working form and we feel it is somewhat stabilized enough to allow people to get started.

Please read the Bug and Features threads is you want to actively participate it its future development, here:

    I want to stress the "beta-ness" of this still. I'm going to be adding all kinds of crap in the coming days/weeks, so keep checking back.

    Congrats on making it public, Dain. Let's hope we didn't miss anything major and that it won't explode!

    Edit: Ooooh, sweet. Thanks for the new icon!

    coolio, giving it a whirl.

    Nice! I'm still amazed by how quick you were in fixing bugs & adding extra features Dain! Time to remove the fake collections image



    By the way, do you think it's likely that the collections will be reset in the near future since it's still in beta?

    I'm 99.99% sure I won't be purging the data, so have at it. If anything occurs, I'll do my best to repair it, and if not, back up the collections that are affected, repair it, then re-import them. So in other words, likely not.

    I'm so excited to get at this thing!



    Stupid question though... How do I access it? lol

    under home, it's listed on the left under collections

    or in that scroll down menu that appears on the left you can get to collections.

    I figured since I had the urgent bugs squashed, and the list was empty, I may as well get it out there for people to mess with. That, and I'm tired of the ridicule! The pain!
  • tuxedocivictuxedocivic
    Holy CRAP!!! It's awesome. Very easy and fast to add things and find games. I love it. I wish it had SNES though. I'm sure that'll come. Congrats Dain. Very sweet tool.

    Is there a way to look at someone else's collection, or is it a private thing?



  • KHAN GamesKHAN Games
    You can just click on "Browse Collections" I believe.
