[C#] HackForums Operating System v1.0 [Cosmos][Not a VOS] - Obi-Wan Cannabis - Apr 10, 2011

I and a friend of mine have just started coding an operating system in C# using Cosmos. We are starting so it uses very easy commands... We're looking to add mouse support, GUI, menus, etc...



Command List

help - shows command list
clear / quit - clears console / quits to "desktop" (this are together because when you are in "info" or "help" you can use "quit" or "clear" to come back to main monitor)
text - loads a text editor
games - load a list of games
  1. Quiz

  2. Guess the Number (we're with a little problem with this game. PM me for details if you think you can fix it...)


  3. We need more games... If you have any suggestion leave a comment below;


beep - makes a beep (can't hear in the video)
shutdown - shuts the OS down
reboot - reboots the OS
info - shows info about the OS and creator

Adding Very Soon


  • Display time and date;

  • Format Drives trough HFOS (not sure if possible);

  • Get more games;

  • Add a GUI "Part" to the OS;

  • Add mouse support;

  • Internet Access (might be too much for cosmos. we'll probably go with asm or something 🤣)

  • More Ideas? Leave them below...

I am very interested in this and I have some questions...

1. Is this an actual OS? Or a VOS?
2. What is Cosmos?
3. Is it available for VB.NET.
4. If it is a real OS, will it work on most computers?
5. Can it have more than console commands (GUI and such?)

Thanks in advance.

Looks pretty cool hopefully you can make it into like a real os with everything in it :)

1. Actual OS! Not VOS.
2. Cosmos is an evolving, open source, .NET-based operating system development tool. The acronym stands for "C# Open Source Managed Operating System."
3. Yes. Never tested it thought.
4. It works in all computers since you can make .ISO and boot from it or just burn it in a pendrive and boot from it.
5. It may have GUI and such but it's very hard. Look at some GUI os'es on youtube and you'll see what I'm talking about...

Thanks for the info man. I found their website and I'm looking into it now. This could be fun.

How did you get it to run as an OS with .Net dependencies?

I used Cosmos... 😎

I don't intend to use that as my operating system. I'm doing it for knowledge. 🤝
