There's only an image, no feature explanation, and I don't trust the zip. I can't really know what it is

The pastebin script itself looks like it should work. Are you running an old version of CC without the Pastebin fix?

A zip isnt some virys, its like a folder but in a file… You shouodnt the files inside the zip, notthe zip itself.

(Or if you were me, dobt trust windows explorer zip opener d:)

The zip is 2 files and a folder. The startup one that runs it and the other file which stored information about the files

I guess "the zip" refers to both the .zip file, and it's contents at the same time in this context.

Exactly. I know what a zip is. Compressed folder. (ah, and I don't use windows) (seems like I'm not able to quote on mobile)

Are you somehow under the impression that there's a risk in viewing the contents of a zip file? It's relatively inconvenient, sure, but they're not, in themselves, executable files.

It's because pastebin thinks the OS file is possible spam, because it has certain keywords in

Try using github to host your files or something else that doesnt have robot protection.

You know that once you went to http://pastebin.com/<yourcode> and entered the captcha everything is fine?

It is on pastebin(you can download it through there if you want"), But that never seems to work however you try

That's not a problem - most any modern web browser can, and it only needs to be done once. After that the pastebin script can indeed download the script normally.

Instead of doing others stuff pre-installed on the os, why not just do the useful ones on there and other programs optional to download on install or make an appstore, also dont just make it a collection of others work, make your own programs for it. It makes it look more unique and litteraly not just a collection of others program. I like it tho ;)/>

First, looks like a Windows 8 OS :)/>
Second, uses somes good programs from others
Third, uses the Bedrock API
Conclusion: Good OS, but needs more programs, features…

I'm thinking of adding these features:
1: A Floppy Disk creator(For VivaBoot disks and VivaOS disks*)
2: A music player(Powered by the DJ app)

I'll give you some tasks heh :D/> :
  • Make multitasking possible (use parallel API or coroutines (I prefer coroutines, as you can see in my doorOS))
  • Add some apps, which are really made by yourself (maybe a file-manager?)
  • Add a way to let the user install their own apps (like I did in doorOS, for example)
NOTE: You don't need to do this, these are just suggestions. :P/>

EDIT: (offtopic) Why do many OSes get so much views and replies, but not mine? Hmm I need a new strategy hehe :P/>
