Hey devs,
So I decided to make a Roblox sound search system in Roblox 
I would like to know what I can add to it to make it more original and cool.
I’m thinking on adding pages but I doubt people would use it.

Maybe it will be cool if you made it like a sound player. You select the song then it will open a page. It can maybe show the avatar of the creator and you can play the sound. I will recomend so it dosent immediatly searches for the songs at the first letter. Maybe make it so it only searches after 3 letters or so. Btw really good proyect, claps

It actually starts searching after 3 letters since the roblox library doesn’t allow under 3 letters.
I feel like that might get annoying for the user when they want to get the preview of a sound and just get directed into a new page. I also had this other idea to display everything on the right side of their screen like this (below) as a scrolling frame, then add the search at the top. Then leave more space for the information and perhaps that idea you gave to display the song’s creator avatar.
@acuaro it was just for quick tests to iterate through less items since my ReplicatedStorage is pretty full, working on organizing it. And I forgot all about SoundService.
Thanks!

I think that the scrolling frame idea is great, yes let the user have a preview is a good idea, but apart from that let them click to bring to a new page. I am not saying that you need to remove the preview, just add a option so that it brings to a new page and you can see the creators name and profile picture alongside playing the song

Simply amazing, maybe make it a bit more colourful?
Yeah for sure, I’m not best at design just put quick UIs because I really wanted to get to script this.

Yeah, I can see you aren’t a UI designer, but an amazing coder (twice as better than me xd)

Are you going to make the game public? I thought it might help with a few of my games I am working on and may be easier on my eyes.

If you mean open source the system, maybe 
It still has many flaws I need to fix, but for sure I’m going to make the game public. In fact, it’s already public on my profile creations.

This system would be great to make it open source to see what people can do with Roblox Lua and learn much about how the sound system could be done and make it even better!
This project is brilliant!

Please make it
We would like to have it!
I’m sure many want it currently, but I can’t seem to find the time to actually fix up my code for the public to read. I’m also dealing with the issue where the sound takes about 2 minutes to preload for some reason. I am positive it’s on Roblox’s end and not mine, but if anybody knows a way to cancel requests to load the sound, that would be awesome, hit me up! (Might start off by a github then a devforum post)
So if I were to release it, I’d really expect many complaints and isn’t really ready to be out for the public. But your post made me realize how much people still want this 
, I guess I’ll get working on it!
