HD Color Computers

You know what would be really useful? More resolution on colored computers, preferably as an upgrade. The limited amount of spaces to be colored somewhat limits the complexity of graphics. Character animations in video games would be more detailed, and mouse-based things would be allowed to have more precision. All in all, higher graphics resolution would be nice.

Although this isn't packaged with Computer Craft, if you are looking for complex graphics work, have a look here:

If you are unaware of this, then basically it is an OpenGL wrapper API for a custom Computer Craft compatible GPU Peripheral, which links to the monitor. I've never used it, but it looks promising, both API and feature wise. I think that may be the closest to any form of "high quality display" you get :)/>.

Maybe not like a huge change, just double the resolution maybe?

You can change the size of the screen in the config if you need more room.Meh, not sold on this idea. Nice channelling of my spirit Lyqyd :P/>/>/>

You do know I mean HD as in, say, 4x smaller pixels with color and mouse capability, right?
Posted 18 March 2013 - 03:35 AM
yes, everyone knows what you mean.

That would be nice, but it should be a more expensive type of computer, since it would have HD graphics.

This is already in, just use setTextScale(). EDIT: Oh, computers… sorry

This would be nice.

And keep it on the Advanced Computers, just make a new, it could be called be called "GPU Upgrade" and it'd be like a wireless modem but gold instead of stone. prephrield. Or something like that.

A no is a no. Cloudy and Lyqyd both expressed their opinions. Leave it alone and move on. HD Computers are obviously never going to happen./SUPPORT
