Maybe I didn't see it, but does 3dtotal have any rss/xml feeds? Thanks.

i'm new to this RSS thing. Does it only show new threads?. it seems to take a while to get the latest, even if you refresh.
can it get new posts too?

The feeds are currently provided in two formats, RSS and RSS v2. The differences are as follows:

* RSS 0.91 - This feed is based on a standard written by netscape and provides a link and the title of the thread.
http://forums.3dtotal.com/external.php?type=rss
* RSS 2.0 - This feed contains title, author, date and the contents of the first post of the thread.
http://forums.3dtotal.com/external.php?type=rss2

The forums to which this applies can also be limited to specific guest viewable forums by adding another parameter to the URL containing the forumids as follows:
http://forums.3dtotal.com/external.php?type=rss2&forumids=123

Here ya go, :D
