Hey guys, well I want to team up with someone to create a fresh OS using C# or mabie C/C++, C/C++ has some plugins for creating a kernel and has a Lua plugin too, and C# as well ( we could use Cosmos for that and NLua ).

EDIT: Or we could use UNIX to make our dream come true.

I will start the development with C# Cosmos, with it I can recreate CC as an Emulator but in OS form HOW COOL IS THAT?

Ohh, well still I will play around wit Cosmos then create it, but great thing is it compiles the code to machine code ALL OF THE C# code would be mainly Assembly and C/C++, the problem is with networking api, fs api, well I will think of something, thats why I need to play around a bit with it. Well I will post some screenshots when I will have something done.

Hell yes this would be awesome. Especially if you could put in some hacks to allow for higher resolutions, we can beat Dan to his own secret project there lol.

If this could be ran on my Raspberry Pi 2 I would be so flippin happy I'd flip tables :D/> in happiness though.

I dont know, it supports ARM ( Mobile devices ) and x86/x64 pc's, It said you can emulate the OS and can repalce it, I wouldnt recommend it :D/>

Hmm I need to create some kind of a better chat so we wouldnt flood theese forums :D/>

EDIT: im going to make a chat on github idk mabie, now ganna check if it supports Raspberry Pi 2 or any Raspberry

EDIT2: Im thinking of making completely like CC but mabie the API's would be slightly different or so and the screen size would be your screen size, but the terminal and all would be changed. ( I dont know about the terminal tbh ) i dont know, I havent looked at the Cosmos, well I played around but it trashed my VS soo :(/> Im reinstalling it… but anyways

EDIT3: you can make os with Cosmos but the programing language need to be made in .NET

EDIT4: Raspberry has Lua support, look it up :)/>

Devs say:
Cosmos currently only runs on x86 and x64 processors. It has the capability to run on ARM and other processors as well but currently only Intel is supported.

So cosmos runs on ARM and Intel ( If I could, I would test that you can run on other processors but I dont have any )

Already been working on this for around a year.

Well people, forget it, Cosmos is a waste of time, unless you want to make a kernel and do stuff from that but Im not going to make Lua in Assembly, its quite difficult and I dont knwo C, I only know a normal ( but I forgot how to code, I THINK ) C++ but that doesnt help.
