This was an early first prototype of Windows 94.1, an unreleased sequel to my earlier project, Windows 94 (https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/356585542/), and barely one at that - a lot of its new technologies were never used. A lot of it ended up being used in my Windows 11 simulator (https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/544851591/) Original InstructionsP Click the green flag to boot up the Cows. Moo! PC and enter this prototype system. Warning: Early, unstable prototype.
Part of an effort to released unshared projects due to inactivity. Early Prototype of Windows 94.1. Versioning Conventions: Pre-Alpha: Codename Baltimore Prototype (Build v2.PX) Alpha: Codename Baltimore Alpha (Build v2.AX) Beta: Windows 94.1 Shared Beta X (Build v2.BX) Final: Windows 94.1 (Build v2.X) Pre-Alpha Changelog: ~8/21/21 - 2.P4 - After many tests, I have added the window rendering system. Much work still has to be done, such as adding layering, drawing in windows, and hitboxes for windows. ~6/1/21 - 2.P3 - Made minor optimizations to the splash screen animation. Updated the date of the splash to June 2021. Updated the version in about PC, which I forgot to do in 2.P2. That will be a standard thing for a while. ~5/31/21 - 2.P2 - Largely the same as 2P1, but changes the icon engine text color to white. ~5/29/21 - 2.P1 - Early Version, though not as bare as the original 0.1 of Windows 94. Boot sequence and fast boot are mostly complete except for the BIOS joke (Much of boot is just reused from 94). Login screen is not finished, just a placeholder due to the incomplete window system. Desktop icon system is running, though with just one icon that brings up an about window. That screen is window, a hitbox-based spritepulled from Windows 94.
