Feature request: add a GPU that acts like a real one

AlphaTechNinja opened this issue · comments

I think it would be a good addition to add GPUs that act like real ones and if you ask for details what I’m asking for is for a GPU that draws pixels instead of characters and my purpose for asking is because I want to build a GUI-based operating system also it would allow users to make more complex programs

I'd say check out MineOS if no one on Dev gets back to you

I’ve used mineOS but I want it to have a higher resolution that’s also why I’m asking

At issue #3638 i found kind of what I was looking for under graphics mode 1 but this suggest sounds better but it should have 256 set of custom characters and all standard ascii characters

There are currently no plans, as the mod is in maintenance-only mode for the most part. However, OC2 does feature a pixel-based graphics card, so at least there's a solution worth evaluating - one which doesn't destroy server bandwidth, which is a crucial consideration.

but will there be plans in the future?

To a mod who has zero active developers left? Unlikely.

oh that's not good this is a great mod I wonder why they are not active anymore

For the most part? They, myself included, got industry jobs and therefore can't devote as much time to something as complex as maintaining a Minecraft mod anymore.
