Cool, now we somehow have to make some code to play games on the computer :)

Yay! Play Minetest within Minetest. Minetestception!

Seriously though, there was an arcade mod around here. Maybe we can adapt that one?

EDIT: "adapt" should be read as "steal code from" :)

EDIT2: Does anybody have good textures for it? I tried taking a pic of my monitor, but my only cam is a crappy phone with a crappy VGA camera.

Kaeza, also long as the image is about 128 pixels, you could simply GIMP it to size.

Oh and by the way, LOVELY idea.

I'll try taking the photo and Gimping it a little. Gotta remove JPEG artifacts, adjust colors and such.

Well, good brakes are good for cornering. Just apply brakes before a tight turn to let the weight shift forward so the driving wheels contact better with the road and have better grip. ;)

I had originally planned it to have the BSOD. After some suggestions I got while on IRC, I'll make different ones.

I'm currently thinking of the following ones:

- Sinclair ZX Spectrum+ (with TV, and joystick instead of mouse)
- Amiga 500 (with monitor, and mouse of course)
- A late 80-90's looking PC (maybe a 486).
- A late 90's PC (a Pentium/P2/P3).
- A modern PC with flat monitor.

Suggestions welcome.

Take my desktop if you want.

That screenshot is full of non-free art, better stay away from it.

Thank you Zigz1, but I agree with Calinou. Most of the icons in your desktop cannot be released as a public license (WTFPL as the mod). Anyway, I may use your desktop layout as a basis for a new texture.

EDIT: Emphasis on layout, not image.

Whem you're done with computers, you should make game systems (ps2 and upwards, xbox360 and upwards, and DS and upwards - and any retro systems people want).

Posted: **Tue Nov 27, 2012 22:07**

Nice idea.

I will have an update soon enough.

Things I am working on right now:

Sinclair ZX Spectrum+
Nintendo NES
Nintendo SNES
Nintendo Gameboy
Sony Playstation

Of course, the computers/consoles will not have their original names to avoid copyright problems, and all the textures will be done from scratch.

Thank you for your support!

I like the BSOD idea.

Is this better? (Click here for full size)

+1 Dabuten colega (colloquialism similar to "Cool, men")

few people know that you can export to ASCII code with gimp ...

+1 Gimp 2.8

Gracias tonyka!
No es necesario explicar coloquialismos colega.

I've been either too busy or too lazy lately, but I'll post an update very soon.

Keep up the work on this mod. Computers and game consoles make great decorations.

Try to make a computer with a screenshot of minetest in it. The screenshot should be of this computer. So it's like minetest inside of minetest inside of minetest. (Inception reference)
