This program is amazingly helpful. It's not pretty, but it's amazing. It does exactly what I was going to do by hand.

One way to by the auto-sort is to rename every collection and add a prefix Letter to the start of each collection name.
(By default I used numbers but that gave a null error, so use letters)

IF you use up A-Z can then start doing AA AB AC etc.. To keep sorting consistent in this manner there should be a space between the prefix and the actual collection name.

Example--
Say you have 3 collections: Double Time, Hard Rock, Hidden
They would initially be in that order but say you want Hidden to come first, you would then rename to:
A Hidden, B Double Time, C Hard Rock

Granted this is a bit of work and doesn't look 'pretty' -- though personally its so uniform i don't find it to look bad either.

Thank you for making this, I have always fancied transferring collection folders

so far I have exported the .osdb file from one computer and loaded it on another computer

Loaded the beatmaps successfully and generated a html list of songs that I am missing

And the split function works too

Will report if there is anything else

Nice app, a quick recommendation: in .txt export I would like to see difficulty in [] (although the link has the right diff in it), I think it is easy to implement and quite convenient.

Hi,

When i fist saw this I was like: This is exactly what I was looking for (hopefully)

But after reading your post and trying it i was disappointed. Why?
Well I really want to sork out song in osu! to collection but only way it is possible in game is one by one.
I hoped that your program would be able to search in database of the songs I have ed and then select there for example all that have TVsize in there name and at the same time put them into one collection of my choice.

What I want to do by explaining this to you is that I would by really happy if something like this would be possible and you have good base of program to maybe do it.

Of course if you think that none but me would use it or you just dont have time for this kind of stuff feel free to not do it. I just want to give it a shot.

Thank you!

Updated to recent osu!.db changes.

Createa tutorial, i cannot understand some functions

Weird timing...

end of this week? (MAYBE?)

oh wow, i'm totally looking forward to that new version o.o

I did say that it may not be released in previous week.
Here's part of the reason
snip

Collections Manager.
Share collections with everyone!

Collections Manager(CM) gives you ability to create and manage your collections more easily. It also makes sharing your collections/maps with others easier.


Links:
In the first post in this thread t/131103

The program crash'es when osu! folder is not named osu!

I can't reproduce that, any more details?

//Update v2
- Increased number of beatmaps that can be opened at the same time from 10 to 100(I experienced firsthand how annyoing that limit was)
- When ing beatmaps using selection, it now makes sure it only opens only one page per beatmapSet
- Add more logging around osu!.db loading and osu! directory finder.

//edit
virustotal is showing false-positive(s) for this program with seems to be caused by providing .dlls from exe.
I included second link with has all .dlls provided separately.

Hello.
Could you please return feature "export as html"? Or I'm dumb and just not see it in this release

"list all collections" button is what You are looking for

For me, it shows some beatmaps as being a different difficulty than in game. Maybe like 1 out of 10 beatmaps have different difficulty in the program compared to osu?

Example:
http://i.imgur.com/9q9vduj.png

I only use values that osu database is providing, so they must have changed(recalculated) when you opened that map in osu! (at least that's what I assume is happening there)

Nothing I can do here to fix this, but you should be able to avoid this by just leaving your osu! running idle for some time, so it'll recalculate your maps star ratings

Open Source any time soon? I would love to help ya out.

Sorry, I'm not planning to open source this anytime soon.

Update v3
- Added for custom osu! Songs directory.
- Collection Editor will now inform you about not working links when loading "old" .osdb file


Next version will most likely include a way of getting missing map data via osu!api

Update v4
- Most elements can be now moved around (beatmap image doesn't have to take 1/3 of the all space anymore )
- Added more information about beatmaps to listing with can be filtered/sorted, namely: map state/AR/CS/HP/OD (want something that isn't there yet? Ask!)
- Added confirmation dialog when trying to open more than 100 map links in the browser at the same time
- Added integrated beatmap er
- Fixed some beatmaps appearing with "~!!~"(not ed) when version in collection and local copy of map differed, They now appear with "~..~"- it's up to You to decide what to do there(ignore? re?)

side note:
-"markers" are going to be replaced with something... less confusing/cryptic soon.

//v4a
- Fixed beatmap er asking for save location every time new maps to are added .

Great program ^^, but where can I find my osu!collections when I want to import them to the program? I clicked "Load Collection", but I haven't found them yet.

Mine is in osu! game directory called collections.db,

Also we need some place to store our collections and get them from others :/.

Thanks for replying, but how did you open this Data Base File?

New version is out!

1. Markers (~!!~ and ~..~) were replaced by checkboxes
2. Music player now avoids playing same track twice(or more) in music mode.
3. Right sidebar is now tabbed. One with what was there usually(map image, details) and second for fast generation of various text collection lists(txt, html, for osu! forums and reddit)
4. More that I probably forgot about.

In addition Collections Manager is now fully open source. Come and contribute if you can
https://github.com/Piotrekol/CollectionManager

And about me saying that "I won't be releasing source code for this":
Back then code for this was "in a pretty bad shape", thus I didn't want to release it in that state. Now that I took some time to refine and refactor a lot of things I decided it's in a good enough state to be shown to public.

While I was at it, I also "generated" some starter collections that some of you might find usefull:
(all of them contain all ranked/approved beatmaps since 2007 to 12-04-2017)
first - 10 collections, based on song genre img
second - 85(!) based on both song genre and language img
third - 11 collections - each containing all maps from that year img

(webpage for sharing these collections will be a thing.. can't give an exact date yet tough )

How do I add songs into a collection? Do I need the folder or the osz?

Currently the only way to add maps to a collection is through included beatmap listing http://i.imgur.com/E6RMfkA.jpg
After finding maps you wish to add you need to select them and drag&drop them onto collection http://i.imgur.com/TDKMqHX.jpg
And done http://i.imgur.com/Q4iVEL7.jpg

Can someone link some their collections for aim, streaming etc. bcs i have a lot of maps but am too lazy to make a collection of my own

How can you add songs to a collection?

uh... look 2 posts above

while I'm there, let me drop this

So I added songs into collections based on stars (i.e. 3.5), and for some reason, the star amount isn't accurate. I have 1.2 stars in my 3.5-star collection. What could this be from?

Try this:
Check your collection in osu!(select some of the incorrectly added maps in song select)
Close osu!
Restart CM
Create another collection with same parameters

Do same(incorrect) maps appear in the newly created collection?

I also took a picture of the star ratings of one of the wrong songs, and there is a discrepancy:

weird, 2.17 is taiko star rating for this difficulty... https://osu-ppy-sh.tvgratuite.org/ss/9017350
I'll take a look at this tomorrow o.o
Found and fixed, expect release tomorrow

Hello

when I click the "Downlaod missing Beatmaps" button, nothing s?

That usually means that you have no missing maps in your currently loaded collections. Error/info box may be missing there.
Or do you actually have some loaded that are missing? need more info.

Booted up the program again now

Now it claims that I have none missing, but I've still lost some from when my osu corrupted

If you're sure about that then try this:
Find one of maps that you know you lost, if you select it in CM does it crash?(I expect it to crash if map .osu or mp3 files are missing, yeah not ideal)
Also make sure to create backup of your collections then try reprocessing maps in osu! (so it rebuilds it's map database, with this program is relying upon)

Hello, i'm having a few troubles, if your still actively helping people ill list them here.

- Im loading a collection a friend gave me from a osdb file, and the maps im missing are still comming up as if im loading in a .db file. screenshot here.
https://i.imgur.com/7127ese.jpg
The in broswer/managed buttons don't work on these missing beatmaps.

- When ing properly recognized missing beatmaps, while they through browser they stay at 0% when using the managed option.
https://i.imgur.com/7127ese.jpg
It works sometimes as seen but not for all.

- For a set of collections I sent my friend he was missing 43 maps. When he ed them through browser they opened to the osu home page and didn't do anything. When he used the managed option it ed nearly empty 9kb osz files that when added to his game did nothing.

Any help with this would be great.

- Im loading a collection a friend gave me from a osdb file, and the maps im missing are still comming up as if im loading in a .db file. screenshot here.
https://i.imgur.com/7127ese.jpg

Assuming that your friend had these maps, and they were displayed correctly in his CM.
Would it be possible for your friend to send me his osu!.db and osdb file that he generated?

- When ing properly recognized missing beatmaps, while they through browser they stay at 0% when using the managed option.

I think you gave wrong image url there, but anyway: s should be "skipped" if they aren't progressing(ing) for too long, maybe they are just getting skipped?

- For a set of collections I sent my friend he was missing 43 maps. When he ed them through browser they opened to the osu home page and didn't do anything. When he used the managed option it ed nearly empty 9kb osz files that when added to his game did nothing.

What do you mean by that? Does "Open beatmap page"( https://i.imgur.com/sH82jKh.jpg ) option open correct map page for any of these beatmaps?

Heres His files:
OSDB - https://puu.sh/zypBg/91a753ebfb.osdb
DB - https://puu.sh/zypOQ/323c1ae932.db

-------
Yeah Sorry that was the wrong image, it just shows them at 0%. Its likely they just aren't starting, is there an explanation for why still existing ranked maps would not link to their beatmap page?

--------
No, for all of those missing beat-maps it doesn't open the correct map page. I thought you said something about those 9kb files, ill have him check his credentials and get back to you.

This osdb file is completely valid and I don't see any maps that are represented by just hash (I forced CM to start without loading osu!.db so it only relied on data from that file)

so i recently deleted my songs folder cause i was tired of how horribly optimized it was ( thousands of dupes, 100+ maps that wouldnt calculate and trigger a instant reprocess that takes hours on my potato laptop. tons of ranked maps showing up as not submitted even after scrolling over them etc) so i copied my collections.db file in a separate folder somewhere else while i went and got all the ranked maps again. ( i even made a collection titled to get again via CM lol ) so just now im trying to use the thing and even when i make a osdb from that collection everything missing just shows up as that unreadable hash bullshit. im not sure what to do.

and even when i make a osdb from that collection everything missing just shows up as that unreadable hash bullshit. im not sure what to do.

That's where you goofed. osdb is meant to transfer data collected from both collections.db AND osu!.db(think your whole songs folder contents).

If I understand right- you copied collections.db -> wiped your osu -> tried to create osdb while having clean osu(barely any maps)

That's not how it works. osu collections.db file do not contain enough information to be able to easily get maps contained in them. What you should have done instead:
create .osdb file from your collections while still having all maps-> "wipe osu"->open osdb in CM


Note that if you install these specific maps in your osu again, both osu and CM will be able to identify them in your collections.db file.

And another note, I had plans for a feature that basically fetches map data based on these hashes from osu!api(it already does that for generated collections), no ETA tho.

in that case. i just realized i never emptied my recycle bin and my backup and old osu.db are still in there.....lets see what happens :thinking:

Edit: ok im glad i didnt empty my recycle bin. i went in there and restored my backup old osu.db ( i dont have a backup of my current one yet i'll do that after im done with this ) and i just put it in some random foldier marked that as my osu's location, loaded up my backup collections.db & made a osdb, closed then reopened CM, put the correct location for my osu, loaded the osdb and its not showing hash. i blanked on the fact i needed my osu.db file also.

im so glad i always keep backups of my db files ( mainly so i dont ever lose the majority of my local scores or collections. but i generally back up all 4 )

can you make it sort with mods enabled?
i.e. i want to sort all maps that are >5.0 and <5.1 with HR enabled.

hey. quick question. you said you generated collections from the osu api. is it possible to generate a csv with collections for every beatmap pack? i know a few people who would probably really like such a thing ( myself, Toy, Zak, StreaminDemon, Joezapy,Lefafel amoung others )

Not sure what you mean tbh. What would such csv file contain & what's use case for it?

thanks, really appreciate it

yeah i never specified. i meant a collections cv of the beatmap packs. as in collections named pack#1 and so on.

Is there some way to fix missing maps showing up as errors?

It was pretty difficult for me to figure out how to use this, mainly how to import a collection db.

Initially I thought that there'd be a feature to transfer collections over to the db that osu! is using, but this is not really the case. What I had to do was load the game's database and the one to be imported. This way, collections from both databases will be present on the list. Finally, I had to save the collection, browsing to osu!'s installation directory and overwriting the old collection.db file (being sure to make a backup, of course).

Furthermore, the " missing beatmaps" button doesn't seem to do anything useful. I had to select the collection, select all the beatmaps, and right click to them to the "Songs" folder in osu!'s installation directory. The only missing beatmaps were ones that had an ID of 0, probably meaning that these beatmaps couldn't be found on osu!'s website any more. If this is true, then it seems pointless to attempt to beatmaps which have already been determined to be unavailable. The more intuitive meaning for "missing" would be any beatmap that is in the collection but is not in the "Songs" folder on the local machine.

All in all, it works but is pretty unintuitive. If it's going to remain this unintuitive, some usage instructions must be provided. For now, I hope my post ends up helping someone down the road.

Thanks for making it open source though. I'm going to look into the source later and figure out what's up with the missing beatmaps and what that button does. Might take up redeg some stuff so it's more in line with how I think the program should operate.

Edit: Why is this distributed only as an installer? Seems unnecessary.

You just have to load as many collections as you want to in order to "transfer them" into one. Saving back to osu! could be made easier for sure. Since it already allows for auto loading of osu! collection.db there's no reason for quick save button to not exist.

" missing beatmaps" button is intended for collections loaded from .osdb files with contain mapIds that allow CM to these beatmaps. There's second unfinished part of this button still lingering in my local git stash with allows to get mapIds from map hashes from osu!api (with is what is available when you load .db file)

Why is osu! distributed only as an installer, while it's fully portable? Main reason would be for ease of use for new s obviously

Is the " all missing maps" option broken? It loads the list but the progress is just stuck at 0% for all the maps.

osu! seems to be replying with 503 for all requests(including one). My guess is cloudflare protection is currently enabled. Nothing really I can do about that.

Installed the setup and ran it, however once it finished installing and i clicked finish it didn't load up and still won't open at all?

Same problem for me. Initial release works but can't load .osdb and latest release won't open at all.

[Fixed, this was an issue on my end]

This tutorial seems to be outdated. Can you update it or show me how to do it?

The tutorial link doesnt work anymore. Any other tutorials on how to use this?

When the bug with mapid:0 will be fixed on graveyarded maps??..

No Tutorial?

is there anyway we could get the missing beatmaps switched to beatconnect?

is this safe beacause i having a warning from windows protect when i it

What warning message do you get?
I'm mostly sure this is safe as people have used this for years with no complaints. As it's open source, people would be able to find anything malicious in it.

I've got that message too. When i try to open it "Windows Defender smartscreen" pops up says that he protected my PC becuase that computer program is dangerous and it dosen't let me to open it.

is there a way to just load a subfolder of the songs into a collection ? lets say i have 8 gb of camellia maps, just hypothetically of course... is there a way for me to just drag'n drop those into a collection ?

I can't generate collections with more than 100 maps? I tried creating one with all my scores A and under but it only gets 100 even though there should be over 1000. For my sanity I can't do it manually.

Basically what I want is these 3 combined in a collection but can't find how to do that: https://puu.sh/IBwaC/ea4b1e9a82.png

I also tried using the discord bot to create collections but it's even worse

Nevermind, found a way with map listing.

Hi I haven't played the game in a year and would like to get my cards back from a pre-made file but they look a lot like unkwon3f24532abdc387006893019ea4ef7682. How do I at least these maps or see their names? I really love my map collection, help restore them please. Thank you all for your help.

Is it possible to use this with osu! lazer?

EDIT: I've seen that you recently added lazer compatibility, thanks
