Re: Building new systems with ReactOS?

32 core threadripper has serious memory bottleneck issues - too many cores for the memory controllers to handle, might be worthwhile waiting for a bit for the next gen. The 'memory bottleneck' you mention is actually much less severe than it would appear to be. In fact, the issue that seems to have...

Re: Should I make a Pinball game for ReactOS?

On Microsoft removing Pinball, a couple of things stand out on that. I don't see why they felt the need to attempt to rewrite it. It was already 32-bit and would run as-is under x64. The other thing is that it sounds like it had sloppy code to begin with. If I were them, I'd have sent the rewrite b...

Re: Vista+ functions non visible to apps that needs them

IIRC there was mention at some point of possibly detecting that an exe file was built for NT6+ and automatically adding the appropriate compatibility flag(s), but even if this gets implemented you should still be able to go into the compatibility tab of the file's properties window to customize it, ...

Re: Trying to install ReactOS in Virtual Box

No, this is not 'normal'. Can you please provide more detailed information about your setup?
  • What is your host OS?
  • What version of VirtualBox are you using?
  • What settings did you choose when creating this virtual machine?

Re: BSOD when installing Guest Additions

That ISO link is old now, you'll have to go to the testbuilds page and download the new test build of the guest additions iso if you want to do this.
Note, these are test builds, and may include other changes and/or bugs.

Re: Language C

Back to the original question, ... And basically, the parts written in Assembly are manually optimized to run fast on one platform, the C parts are in C because it's fairly close to Assembly in speed while also being more portable, allowing it to be compiled for different architectures, and the C++...

Re: Language C

Your last post looks like coming from a spambot. Not, i'm edited my last post! OK then sorry for the misunderstanding. Hmmm...

Re: Language C

@SOOAHPAZ: If English is not your primary language, you can write your posts in both languages, so that if people have difficulty understanding your English, they can run the other language section through a translator to help them understand.

Re: I wondering

Looking through the history of the @ReactOS twitter account visible by continuing to scroll down on www.twitter.com/reactos (I don't have a twitter account, so I can't see any more posts if there are any) most of the times I found the word "I", it was in retweets, and since those aren't or...

Re: How do I change the aspect ratio?

You may also need to change which graphics card VirtualBox is emulating (while the VM is off).

Re: Is it okay, if I upload a pre-configured ReactOS Virtual Machine to archive.org?

To be just a tiny bit more accurate, the license requires that if you distribute binaries, you're required to offer the sources used to build those binaries to anyone that you distributed those binaries to. To my knowledge, the reason that ThFabba seems to indicate that you only need to do that if y...

Re: Ext JS to React blog series

I hope not! If the ReactOS website used ReactJS, then we wouldn't be able to tell people that there's no connection, people would have an avenue to argue when told that our site's not about ReactJS ("I opened your website in the document inspector, and it looks like it uses ReactJS to me."...

Re: Ext JS to React blog series

In case you haven't seen me post it on twitter or elsewhere, we have started to publish our Ext JS to React blog series. This series is meant as a transition from Ext JS to React where we show an apples-to-apples comparison between the two. We aren't attempting to teach React, just show a compariso...
