| Let's say I had the desire to crawl every page on the Roblox Catalog. Would attempting to do so cause any unwanted aftereffects? |

ROBLOX WOULD BAN YOU FOR DOSING THEM
No, really, the Roblox servers probably handle many more requests on the Catalog alone than you would be sending, by a very long way. |

Alright, s'pose I'll go ahead and try then.
@nickmaster; Trust me, I've been trying to figure out how to do so for about a week. If I find out how, I'll probably feel accomplished and have a compulsory need to post a thread about it. |

var data; $.get('http://www.roblox.com/catalog/json?SortType=0&SortAggregation=3&SortCurrency=0&LegendExpanded=true&Category=2',function(x){ data=JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(x).match(/\[.+\]/)[0]); }); data;
Run that in the chrome console right here. |

@Squaggle
I will be so happy if you figure out how :3 On one of my threads someone said they could login to mobile and then use the mobile cookie on the normal site. They never told me how to login on mobile though... |

| @waffle: I'm well aware of that api, but unfortunately it doesn't give me what I need so I'm stuck doing it the hard way. |

| What is it that you need that it does not provide? |

| I should specify. When I say every page in Roblox's catalog, I mean the 120 some odd million asset pages, not just catalog pages. |

| To compile a list of all Meshes, sounds, etc and quite possibly find asset types that are new to me. |

Awesome :D
You should make some sort of client that can organize the data you get to make an awesome interactive asset browser! |

| The catalog briefly let us browse by asset type. No more since people used it to browse the hidden hats (ie ones not released yet). :/ |

I don't see what is so wrong about us knowing about them before they come out... |

I could never figure out how it worked though. |

No one suggested Fiddler to me before. I'm going to try it.
