What does your OS look like? (Screen Shots..)

[lukem95]

wndproc that looks pretty cool, nice concept

open source?

Here are my OS screen shots.
It is still primitive as it is taking me a lot longer because this is my first OS. All I can say is I am impressed I have gotten this far.

So Far it:
loads GDT
Loads IDT
Inits IRQ
Inits ISRs
Inits Keyboard and console drivers.

I'm afraid, no. But the concepts aren't that hard to program.

If you want to program your own 3D software renderer, follow these steps:
1) Write (or take over) a basic math library with matrix and vector support.
2) Write a triangle drawing algorithm (<- was the most tricky part).
3) Extract vertex- and index buffer data from any 3d object.
4) Transform vertex data into screen space (by multiplying with world, view and projection matrices).
5) Add some animation or mouse interaction, by modifying the world matrix.
6) Draw the transformed triangles to a backbuffer (color information) and a z-buffer (floating point buffer holding depth values), using the z-buffer for clipping.
7) Apply a simple diffuse lightning vertex shader for a nice color shading.
8.) Copy the backbuffer to screen and clear z- and backbuffers for the next frame.
9) Loop steps 4 to 8.

If you run into trouble, check http://www.gamedev.net or send me a message.

As you can see, my OS is still relatively basic, it's stable but it does little, but I'm still proud of it, since it took me a while to accomplish this. Slosh stands for "Super Lightweight Onyx Shell", the default shell in my OS.

Reviving this old thread.

This time I'm showing off the first iteration of my window manager I'm implementing for a graphical shell for my little OS which has come a long way since my last post in here. The window manager itself is pretty much structured like GDI+ with drawing routines isolated in the graphics driver to allow it to use possible hardware acceleration in the future. For now it's just using software rendering with a simple VESA framebuffer driver

Most recent screenshot of my little operating system. Currently it's broken



Haven't had very much time with it because of a website making competition I have to prepare for. But in a few weeks I can continue developing my OS.

This is a latest screenshot form my OS (Netbas 0.23. http://jicama.cosoft.org.cn/blog/ )

Dude!!!!

Nice looking OS you've got there!

[JackScott]

Yeah, looks damn good.

Feature request for next version: Terminal icon to have >_< on it instead of >_

[claxonix]

this is my experimental os

[Troy Martin]

Welcome claxonix!

I had to squint to read the green text well, but it looks like you have a nice OS there! I suggest you make the text the regular light grey colour.

[claxonix]

thanks. basicaly it is a kernel with some things from linux but is not linux.it is multitasking and has a command line.but i stop developing from time and motivation reasons and i didn't implement to much.i have drivers only for keyboard and console and more unfinished (hdd, fdd, pci, sound).maybe someday i will restart develop.

[Troy Martin]

Okay, time to post shots of my OS, Titanium Bonfire Operating System.

[cyr1x]

Looks good . How long are you working on it?

[Troy Martin]

Mine? Started in mid-October this year. It's completely in real mode, and can be run on as little as a 186 (pusha and popa weren't in the original 8086) as long as you have a VGA card in the box for the 80x50 font.
