"My Files" manager

Why don't put a "My Files" manager like in NFSCars? Because sometimes you should update files.

I second this - Great idea, AJ_Lethal.
Only problem is it might be kind of hard to implement for files that have already been uploaded--and I don't know of phpBB or whatever NFSAddons's code-base is will allow it without modification... but I really can't program, so I don't listen to me.

But honestly the end result of this would be great and probably a very useful tool for add-on authors. :)

There still isnt 'More by this author' option. So keep dreaming about My Files.

Sorry guys, was away on my honeymoon for the past 4 weeks.

I like this idea. FerrariMan: The NFSA codebase is all custom written, not based on phpbb or anything. That'll make it a bit harder, since I have to write the code myself, can't just upload a modification, but I think it's worth doing.

I'll see if I can get this, and the more by this author, done this weekend :)

It feels as good as a warm shower

Glad to see it. :) *sigh*

"My Files" is next, but it'll take longer as I'll have to put in some safeguards. Don't want people uploading a "real" car, and then being able to modify it to contain a virus or something like that. so changes may have to go into a queue where Remko or I can look things over and approve

Mike, there's a bug on the "more by author" featue:

I was looking for some cars with that -Zpectre's- and I clicked on his VW Golf GTI. It gave me an error, since the link was leading to nowhere.

That's the URL i've got with the "more by author" feature:
http://www.nfsaddons.com/nfshs/cars/1399/AFAIK, it should be like this:

My bad... fixed now :)
