Just days after launch, Hytale mods already let you run Windows 95, Minecraft, and somehow even Hytale itself within the sandbox RPG, and Hypixel has questions: "How"

Looks like Doom runs via a java port plugin. I'm guessing the other stuff is running externally and just imported through a video stream, not actually running on top of the game.

People have built fully functional processors out of redstone. Stuff CAN run on it, just not at a usable speed.

Yeah but Hytale (afaik) doesn't have a redstone equivalent

So this will be new Minecraft?

Minecraft was already turing complete or whatever they call it, running fricken Pokémon red on Redstone lol

There are people inventing whole redstone microarchitectures and running a simplified minecraft on it. Seconds per frame, sure. But it runs.

That would be the…lol… CHUNGUS II architecture

I finally decided to give in and check it out - But my card gets getting declined by their payment processor. Everyone else I know whose tried to buy it has run into the same error.

I don't know what's going on with that but I guess I'll have to wait for it to land on Steam before I can really check it out.

Don't they offer a ton of different payment methods though? Granted most of them aren't global, but their FAQ lists dozens of options.

justdaveisfine@piefed.social · 5 pts · 221d

They do, but I only have the one option.

i'm waiting for a create-like mod before jumping.

So weird seeing windows 95 again, like seeing a pristine copy of your first car on the road.

Also, "Why?"

But more in the the "Why didn't we setup the microtransactions for mods when we had the chance?"
