We've reached the first page of Neocities for view count ;'] Another big update coming (real DOS, command prompt, FULL filesystem functionality, improved drag/drop and mobile support). After that it's probably time to take a much needed break and focus on other stuff for a while! Don't forget to submit bugs if you run into them! Wishing everyone well.

Debugging the controller issue (where your controller is seen, but doesn't work in selected games). Just to be sure, do you have Controller item checked in Interval Odyssey's menubar: File>Settings->Controller ? If it still doesn't work, what about Tetris' controller support? I'm considering the possibility that it may be iframe related and/or specific to certain browsers but wanted to confirm this diagnostic.

Hi, love your website, but would it be possible to export your own works? Like when you make a microsoft paint painting and think it's actually good... Like me... Didn't even want that but it happened lmao Have a nice day! :D

Yes! You can do this by using DataBridge: Start->Programs->DataBridge. This allows users to take files on Windows 99 and export them to your computer. Additionally you can bring files into Windows 99 this way (or by dragging a file from your computer onto Windows 99 desktop directly).

I got a critique that MS-DOS in Windows 99 isn't really DOS. Time to dust off the cobwebs for resolving that...

On MS Agent: It's actually completely custom TypeScript built directly into the app! It manages state, sound, balloon styling, and event triggers natively rather than using VBS or MASH. I did use MASH a lot as a reference when designing the behavior, though! Adding direct MASH script/file compatibility is on my backlog, but integrating it into the current service is quite a bit of work for a niche feature.

Although I did download a lot of stuff off archive.org, maybe you have some stuff I dont have?

aznet 1 month ago

I have the full tool suite for making your own custom agents from scratch, including a compiler and decompiler. My email is lainerunner at gmail, just shoot me a ping if you want me to send everything. If not, all good. I personally think tying your msagents into even more stuff would be cool! Agentic ai is taking off and these guys were the first hermes agent. They bring back good digimon vibes.

win1999 1 month ago

Good to know! As for tying into Agentic workflow, it's possible someone could fork off this work in the future, but to keep in check with the design system and overall ethos of Windows 99, I'm trying to avoid being anachronistic when it comes to using out of universe elements like modern LLM artificial intelligence.

win1999 1 month ago

Either way, let's keep in touch :)

aznet 1 month ago

msAgent doesn't use LLMs for agentic AI though though, and you're literally already running it ;) AI is new? Must not know about the Ultra HAL AI from 1998 that works with Clippy lmao. Only Transformers is new. You never used an ELIZA model on dos? We've had Artificial Intelligence since 1867, with the automated mechanical Turk. You already added more novel features than msAgent had out of the box.

win1999 1 month ago

I think we may be misunderstanding each other here: I simply am trying to say I don't want to pipe the infrastructure into modern LLMs, which is what I thought you were suggesting. I am familiar with Eliza and Ultra HAL, but those are not LLMs, they are rule-based systems.

win1999 1 month ago

For reference, the current W99 MSAgent implementation is just event-driven scripting with static phrase arrays (ex. when you open Notepad, it picks a random line from a hardcoded list and says it). It's closer to the original Clippit/clippy than anything you'd call AI (event hooks and static response, no inference at all).

win1999 1 month ago

And I don't know why you're bringing up the Mechanical Turk, it was literally a man hiding in a box intending to trick an audience. Also that was in the 1700s, not 1867. I'm not sure where you got that date from.

Could you add MASH to this? And other msagent toys and editors? I can send you them all if you need. What's running this desktop agent, is this custom vbs or faked somehow? You willing to share your agent setup so I can add it to my Finffin?

I'll do another one of these since it's relevant to recent dev work for an upcoming release--The favicon! In March 1999, Microsoft released Internet Explorer 5, which supported favicons for the first time. Originally, the favicon was a file called favicon.ico placed in the root directory of a website. It was used in Internet Explorer's favorites (bookmarks) and next to the URL in the address bar.

Parsing favicons from 1999, 2000... their usage was quite rare. It appears that the adoption wasn't really incorporated until tabbed browsing came along 2002-2004 (to help distinguish tabs through iconography). Furthermore, early IE only looked at the server root (http://domain.com/favicon.ico), so individual user sites couldn't have their own favicons.
