DynationOS Beta test

Info

Hello, today I thought it would be a good day to release my OS for beta testing, feel free to test this OS, as long as you do not modify any and all of the files in "/Dos/SystemFiles/".
Please report any and all bugs you may find. I know there will be some, and not all the features of this OS are finished, also from my personal testing, and I tried to fix it, but your username will not save when creating an account… And if you think something is wrong when creating an account, the computer is not frozen, its just you need to click anywhere on the screen (Hopefully you read that )
This will only run on a Advanced Computer.
Now one more thing, don't worry about having to manually set up all the files…. I made an installer so you guys don't have to. Remember this is ONLY a beta, not the full release or even a finished version (The finished version will be version: 5.0)
Enjoy!

How to Install

Simply type this in your Advanced Computer

pastebin get GFiMjzwQ installer

Then type in "installer" so that the program will load, finally after reading what the installer said, reboot your Advanced Computer. Enjoy! Remember to report any and everything that you think is a bug!

Credit


Right now I can only give 2 other people credit for this OS, but 1 of those people's program that will be used in the next update is not included right now. But still, they deserve credit.

Screenshots would be great, thanks.

EDIT: I tried it, and the installer successfully downloads all the files, but tells me HTTP isn't enabled. I restart and the OS starts up fine. Might wanna fix that.

When I try to register an account, I go and type my username and password, then go to login, but my account isn't listed. I click accounts and it goes to the registration screen, and when I click anywhere else but accounts, it just crashes to the console without showing any error. I assume that the error is printed outside of the screen.

Yeah, like I said in the Info section, your username will not save, only the account password, you will have to type in

edit /Dos/UserFiles/file.password
in order to set a username, I am currently trying to fix it, I know it has nothing to do with how I told it to read the username, its just when you create an account it is not saving the information. But that is strange how it crashes you. I will look into that, but anyways thanks for the feed back!

Hey dudes - about the installer
if error then -- this is always true cuz error is a function and evaluates true here
That's why it keeps stating that HTTP is off.

I'll Fix that later… probably next beta update.

Imma try this… nice to see an OS with my screensaver! (even though it's not integrated yet) (Spelling Nazi: you spelt 'CCScreensaver' wrong)

Lol, your CCScreensaver will be included next update, right now it is a hidden command in "typing mode", but doesn't work since it is not included in the installer.

Seems cool, how about updating it though?

I've slowed down on the development of DynationOS, due to the lack of interest of people.

Changed the poll to "How interested are you?" since I found that not many people seem to like the OS, and I'm thinking about quite working on it.
