A Guide To the Database


Below you will find a complete listing of the tutorials hosted in the database that is for the most part complete and up to date. If there is a tutorial in the database that is not on this list please reply to this topic to point it out, even if it is a necro-post. this topic is sticked for a reason after all.

I organized the tutorials based on what they relate to there are of course a few that fall into more than one section, in these cases I put them in to the section I felt most described the intent of the tutorial. If you feel that you can provide a better categorization please post your idea.

I would have posted earlier in this, but I never found the time because of Blizzard's chats. This is an excellent database, but I'm going to be a bit picky and be a Spelling Nazi, as Mapping is double P, not one. That's all I need to really say, you may want an author or so, but this is beautiful work Ryex.

What's osu!? It's a rhythm game. Thought I should have a signature with a working rank. ;P It's now clickable!
Still Aqua's biggest fan (Or am I?).

I updated the list, reorganized it, added two more categories, made the thread look nicer, and added a short description of each tutorial. Enjoy.
