Honestly the 3D racing game got me. Sure, he is no designer, but this is a working OS complete with 3D Racing Games and all kinds of shenanigans, in 2 megabytes of all things, and it's all done by a single man, meanwhile there is Microsoft with over a hundred thirty thousand (imagine that) employees and they can't even get their updates right like the complete s*** show windows is these days. It's an embarrassment. Looking at this I feel like 99% of IT went the wrong way at some point.
I think its harder to coordinate a team of people that need to get payed doing what theyre doing to create good products than it is for a single genius to do the work by himself without social shenanigans or give orders to a team that obeys him... Just because there are a lot of brains involved doesnt mean theyll come up with smth good! Quite the opposite! I forgot who this quote is from, but it went something like "the work of a 9 idiots and a genius vs the work of 9 genius' and 1 idiot are almost indistinguishable"
Writing that 3D car on a track: render engine, compiler, visuals, backend in 2MB would be a feat for your average programmer. Let alone an entire fricken operating system.
This was using only 16 colors for graphics. Which is why the 3D graphics had a lot of dithering (the animated noisy look implies Monte Carlo path tracing). I think it's impressive how he implemented all the algorithms from scratch. In a different place he'd be a great demoscene coder.
@liberP lovPrimeNumbers of course jpg does have more data, You have trouble comprehending it beacuse for You jpg is a single photo but templeOs represents multiple things but it is less data anyway
@liberP lovPrimeNumbers "you cant compress TCP as you would with UDP " let's just end this dicussion here , I see no point in tech-oriented discussion when you write such statements
2mb guys, 2 mb. He did all of this, shoved all of this into 2mb. A super nintendo rom/game is almost this size, a ps1 game would be anywhere from 200-700mb this is 2. I wonder if anyone 7nderstands the significance if this, it means he has his own micro optimized compiler/interpereter among many other amazing features.
Back in college I discovered a version of QNX that fit into a 1.44MB floppy. It included an internet browser and supported resolutions up to 1600x1200 with 32-bit colour. This was in 1999. If you look around you will find that TempleOS - while impressive - is not the most amazing or unique thing out there. Still, I can't hold a candle to what Terry was capable of as a programmer so will never downplay his achievements.
@@mashakos1 I will say this, his os is not optimized and comes installed with a lot of fluff. He also had the forethought for adding capabilities for functional and logic based paradigms. You are right, there are some really amazing bare metal systems out there, kolibrios, plan 9s inferno, and a few others I think it will only become more impressive with time. I myself am planning a 2mb browser based os that will have the unique feature of multidimensional browsing, and realtime data analysis in a 2mb footprint as well as a ring0 terminal and intelligent terminal as the host vm that the browser os interfaces with. Looking forward to collaborating.
An OS not even he used. Truly an amazing work of genius. One has to wonder why Terry didn’t stream to TH-cam via his own OS running his own streaming software. My guess is it’s because his OS was shit.
What impresses me is the fact that there is absolutely NO image assets of any kind in his source code. All the graphics you see is drawn using algorithms and only code. Unbelievable.
DoitalJosh That's not really the case, as sprites and 3D meshes are created in editors and saved directly in the code files (Terry has a video showing how to use the 3D mesh editor, and I've used it myself). It's really neat and different that you can save the sprites / meshes in the code, as that's not something you can do in regular programming (nor would you really want to haha, but it works nicely for a small system like this). Of course the sprites and meshes have an underlying code that generates them, and stored data, but that's true for any image or 3D object, be it png, jpg, etc.
@@rewrite1239 It's a cool vector graphics format, a lot like SVG (but simpler). The vectors can have bitmaps in them too. A bitmap sprite is actually just a vector sprite with only the bitmap portion defined, it's pretty neat
@@TheSmilodon85 It was just a hobby. A project for fun. He built an operating system--something most people cannot even begin to imagine to do--but it was very lacking. And so it remains a hobby, but nothing people would trade in Linux or Windows for. Not even close.
@@21Division The OS, music software and music are all pretty horrible and almost impossible to use, so IDK. But it's still a possibility. It is pretty amazing that he wrote all of it himself... In assembly language I think (correct me if im wrong)
he was definitely the most dedicated. anyways, greatest is something very vague. if we are talking about the most skilled, it will be the programmer that can whip together a complex relevant program, that is also future-ready, faster than anyone else, via utilizing libraries and what not and generally knowing the fastest yet best ways to implement things. If we are talking about contribution, I say people who make opensource libraries and APIs are the most underappreciated programmers.
@@klyper i was just watching his old streams on archive.org and i think i heard him say that, and ive also seen it 2 times in youtube comments, could be a myth but knowing the big brain of that dude that could also be true
He was quite literally a mad genius stuck in the past. Imagine if he had his sanity. Imagine if he had done all of this work without the taint of psychosis in a time where relevant. I guarantee he would be a legend among Steve Wozniak and Linus Torvalds. His story was an unfortunate one, seeing him slowly deteriorate. May he RIP.
On windows I can get it to 4kb, by a lot of masochism (digital mars compiler, #pragma startaddress, only pure winapi). I need to write my own compiler to get to 2. Every tool sucks, I tried all of them, they all do.
Terry used this screen mode, because it is supported by all graphics cards and can be addressed via interrupt 10h, or 0x10, or simply interrupt 16. No need for drivers at all.

@@wach9191 He was in and out of mental institutions, and his parents let him stay with them for a very long time, according to a pretty great documentary, here on TH-cam.

It is very sad, but there's only so much others can do when an individual refuses help. Especially when its because they have "divine intellect" and are the "greatest programmer that ever lived."
you can think forward i think you can use that dithering for texturing for pbr textures... but you have to add white to grey to black colors that is light and dark contrasts / illumination blabla aso so you have more than 16 colors....
@@uwirl4338 TempleOS sprite elements can specify dithering between 2 colors in lieu of a solid color; the dithering itself is handled in the draw functions in Adam/Gr/GrBitMap.HC.

Couldn't find any code in there that does that, but maybe TAD's vocabulary calls it something other than "path tracing," thwarting my attempts to text-search it.

There is a strange calm about this operating system as if it was created by someone who loved all of his creations. Yet, there is also a loneliness as for 20 years, only his creations understood and loved him back. I don't want to end up like this but I can empathize what it must feel like. Rest in peace Terry.
I hope this inspires more companies to develop new operating systems and possibly even rethink hardware. Sometimes reinventing the wheel, even if just for the sake of art of keeping oneself busy, can have a major impact.

Given he could stick the entire operating system and compiler into 2meg is really quite impressive, considering most bootloaders go well over that. Also, did you know you can use C, HolyC, C++, and Assembly all in the same compiler without error?

Temple OS ... The only OS which could be installed on an 8mb Nokia SD Card XD I actually already tried to boot temple os off it but the sd card was too slow :P 4hours load time
While I have previous heard of and somewhat read about this OS, I have only spend the last couple days really learning about it and its creator. I have it up and running in QEMU under Linux but will definitely be running it dedicated hardware as soon as I can.
At least there are 2 more things that makes TempleOS very impressive: - It's not "yet another UNIX/Linux or MS-DOS clone". It's mostly original, with some ideas inspired by good old C64 days: no multi users, no memory protection etc. - It's self hosting. No idea how Terry build the first TempleOS (perhaps assembler), but now it's written in a language called Holy C (sort of C with some basic OOP support). Some people are known for building OS kernels, some people are known for designing programming languages . Terry did both.
Ive added in Networking to the OS. Its rough and ugly but its working. If I can ever get the time im going to try and update Temple to take more advantage of todays hardware. After reading through his code I think its possible but it will take me a long time to try and learn what I need to get that going. Surprisingly (even today) his code is for the most part very efficient. He made some odd choices when he wrote Temple... choices I dont understand, but they work. I dont want to ruin what he has done, but only add too it.
I see a lot of people saying they could make this in 3 years in the comment section, I see 0 operating systems made by a single person on the same level as templeOS.
Awesome. The guy really was a genius. I'm going to be trying it out later. It would be great if somebody could carry on his work, and make the OS more capable for practical use.
This guy was really a genius. Imagine what he could have done without being Schizophrenic, or having been undergoing proper treatment. I am ashamed that very little was done to save him from his downwards spiral.
Lenovo has ruined Thinkpads over the years. They used to have fantastic build quality, but that has been declining. My T420 is, while pretty durable, less durable than my T400.
Positive: It's great to see some people check his work out. Negative: TOO LATE!!!!! He is gone now. Some background infos: The OS boots a COMPILER, the OS gets compiled during boot (!!!) and starts up. The elephant demo was to demonstrate not the ugly drawing, he said that with less colors you must do better in art instead of making a highres image. He wrote everything, the OS, the compiler, 2D and 3D Demos, the OS is a RTOS! He said its something like a next generation C64 OS. His IDE is able to embed gfx directly into the sourcecode and reference to it. It works on ring 0 - so it can operate faster than any other os. When he was at home only some people respected him online, many did bad jokes. He was a person with no frieds - a digital einstein - and did not get the respect he deserved. This guy was a technical superbrain. I was not able to help him but some other who interviewed him or who found him let him alone. I also know at least one very famous person who followed his work and he did nothing. I am so frustrated. When his vids where deleted on YT he lost his hope and all tutorials but I have a backup of them. He needed help but was ignored. f..!!!!!
so if someone designed an operating system around emacs, but one that used c instead of lisp as a 'scripting' engine, you would get something like templeos. all it's missing is a rudimentary internet connection, then it could be a fully functional workstation os.
From the Down the Rabbit Hole video I thought he had already created some impressive stuff but now I see there’s even more stuff he made, like damn. All this from nothing, pretty amazing.

@John Smith you alright?
underrated
They always did say he had a sense of humor
Honestly the 3D racing game got me. Sure, he is no designer, but this is a working OS complete with 3D Racing Games and all kinds of shenanigans, in 2 megabytes of all things, and it's all done by a single man, meanwhile there is Microsoft with over a hundred thirty thousand (imagine that) employees and they can't even get their updates right like the complete s*** show windows is these days. It's an embarrassment. Looking at this I feel like 99% of IT went the wrong way at some point.
Wait till you see 64KB demos - some of them 10 minute videos. That will blow your mind.
And that point was not hiring C programmers.
I think its harder to coordinate a team of people that need to get payed doing what theyre doing to create good products than it is for a single genius to do the work by himself without social shenanigans or give orders to a team that obeys him...
Just because there are a lot of brains involved doesnt mean theyll come up with smth good! Quite the opposite!
I forgot who this quote is from, but it went something like "the work of a 9 idiots and a genius vs the work of 9 genius' and 1 idiot are almost indistinguishable"
Microsoft is the proverbial 10,000 monkeys banging away at typewriters will never create a good novel.
Do you really think productivity scales linearly with the no. of programmers?
Writing that 3D car on a track: render engine, compiler, visuals, backend in 2MB would be a feat for your average programmer. Let alone an entire fricken operating system.
And *text editor* with *Sprite compatibility in the text editor* and *flight simulator*
with that much time on their hands anyone could do it
Test Huawei
3d engines are pretty much always illusions anyways...
Don't forget he also wrote the entire boot loader, not even using GRUB
This was using only 16 colors for graphics. Which is why the 3D graphics had a lot of dithering (the animated noisy look implies Monte Carlo path tracing). I think it's impressive how he implemented all the algorithms from scratch. In a different place he'd be a great demoscene coder.
Temple OS (2 Mb)
iPhone photo (2.59 Mb)
That's amazing to me....
Thats a really good comparison. Holy shit lmao
@liberP lovPrimeNumbers of course jpg does have more data, You have trouble comprehending it beacuse for You jpg is a single photo but templeOs represents multiple things but it is less data anyway
@liberP lovPrimeNumbers ok I see , I guess god only likes jpg to be 640x480x16 colors with optional dithering , everything more than that is a noise
@liberP lovPrimeNumbers compression works just fine on any binary data , no idea why do You think it only works on media lol
@liberP lovPrimeNumbers "you cant compress TCP as you would with UDP
" let's just end this dicussion here , I see no point in tech-oriented discussion when you write such statements
2mb guys, 2 mb. He did all of this, shoved all of this into 2mb. A super nintendo rom/game is almost this size, a ps1 game would be anywhere from 200-700mb this is 2. I wonder if anyone 7nderstands the significance if this, it means he has his own micro optimized compiler/interpereter among many other amazing features.
im not familiar with programming but i wish someone made a video about why the guy was "genius" as everyone claims to be
Back in college I discovered a version of QNX that fit into a 1.44MB floppy. It included an internet browser and supported resolutions up to 1600x1200 with 32-bit colour. This was in 1999. If you look around you will find that TempleOS - while impressive - is not the most amazing or unique thing out there. Still, I can't hold a candle to what Terry was capable of as a programmer so will never downplay his achievements.
@@mashakos1 I will say this, his os is not optimized and comes installed with a lot of fluff.
He also had the forethought for adding capabilities for functional and logic based paradigms.
You are right, there are some really amazing bare metal systems out there, kolibrios, plan 9s inferno, and a few others I think it will only become more impressive with time. I myself am planning a 2mb browser based os that will have the unique feature of multidimensional browsing, and realtime data analysis in a 2mb footprint as well as a ring0 terminal and intelligent terminal as the host vm that the browser os interfaces with. Looking forward to collaborating.
An OS not even he used. Truly an amazing work of genius.
One has to wonder why Terry didn’t stream to TH-cam via his own OS running his own streaming software.
My guess is it’s because his OS was shit.
TheIncognitusMe have you ever wrote your own compiler idiot? I bet you don’t even know what an interrupt routine is
What impresses me is the fact that there is absolutely NO image assets of any kind in his source code. All the graphics you see is drawn using algorithms and only code. Unbelievable.
DoitalJosh That's not really the case, as sprites and 3D meshes are created in editors and saved directly in the code files (Terry has a video showing how to use the 3D mesh editor, and I've used it myself). It's really neat and different that you can save the sprites / meshes in the code, as that's not something you can do in regular programming (nor would you really want to haha, but it works nicely for a small system like this). Of course the sprites and meshes have an underlying code that generates them, and stored data, but that's true for any image or 3D object, be it png, jpg, etc.
@@rewrite1239 It's a cool vector graphics format, a lot like SVG (but simpler). The vectors can have bitmaps in them too. A bitmap sprite is actually just a vector sprite with only the bitmap portion defined, it's pretty neat
I don't understand wtf was it for???
@@TheSmilodon85 It was just a hobby. A project for fun. He built an operating system--something most people cannot even begin to imagine to do--but it was very lacking. And so it remains a hobby, but nothing people would trade in Linux or Windows for. Not even close.
I mean, everything in PC are lines of code
Maybe he actually was the greatest programmer in the world.
@@21Division The OS, music software and music are all pretty horrible and almost impossible to use, so IDK. But it's still a possibility. It is pretty amazing that he wrote all of it himself... In assembly language I think (correct me if im wrong)
he was definitely the most dedicated. anyways, greatest is something very vague. if we are talking about the most skilled, it will be the programmer that can whip together a complex relevant program, that is also future-ready, faster than anyone else, via utilizing libraries and what not and generally knowing the fastest yet best ways to implement things.
If we are talking about contribution, I say people who make opensource libraries and APIs are the most underappreciated programmers.

I really hope so
The Easter Egg is The Holy Spirit itself
he said that he had a chat program in the OS to talk to him after his death, wonder if anyone's ever found it, or is it even real.
Kvas do you remember where you saw that?

He was quite literally a mad genius stuck in the past. Imagine if he had his sanity. Imagine if he had done all of this work without the taint of psychosis in a time where relevant. I guarantee he would be a legend among Steve Wozniak and Linus Torvalds. His story was an unfortunate one, seeing him slowly deteriorate. May he RIP.
He's not a melinated monkey like Linus...
lol i cant even compile a hello world program in c below 16 kB and this guy made an entire os in under 2 mb what is my life
welcome to catch-all bin of mediocrity.
Just compile with -s
On windows I can get it to 4kb, by a lot of masochism (digital mars compiler, #pragma startaddress, only pure winapi). I need to write my own compiler to get to 2. Every tool sucks, I tried all of them, they all do.
Get rid of the standard library. That's where most of the size comes from.
Terry Davis was an *artist* who used a PC as his canvas and programming as his tools. TempleOS was his masterpiece.
Terry built the only OS that won't spy on you or sell you shit you don't need. It's truly a sign from God.

Not the only OS. RISC OS for example, is still actively used and being developed.

@@wach9191 well where I live (the UK) I had a neighbor who was similar and often said he wanted to kill the neighbors for many years ( including us). He was often found sleeping in his front guardan with his dogs. It turned out after he made to many death threats the police search his home and found a unlicensed shotgun with ammo. It took around 5-6 years before they sectioned him as they could not do anything till they believe he was a danger the public
@@wach9191 He was in and out of mental institutions, and his parents let him stay with them for a very long time, according to a pretty great documentary, here on TH-cam. The biggest issue was that he refused to take his medications, and spiraled out of control, eventually assaulting his dad, after which he was no longer welcome at home. It is very sad, but there's only so much others can do when an individual refuses help. Especially when its because they have "divine intellect" and are the "greatest programmer that ever lived."

Stop be a shill
They glow but you shine. RIP.
Says 16 colors is all one needs. Adds dithering for 3D. lol.
Dithering doesn't change the number of colors =P
For fucks sake it's not dithering. TempleOS graphics are rendered through path tracing in real time and thus they have rendering noise.
you can think forward i think you can use that dithering for texturing for pbr textures...
but you have to add white to grey to black colors that is light and dark contrasts / illumination blabla aso
so you have more than 16 colors....
@@uwirl4338 TempleOS sprite elements can specify dithering between 2 colors in lieu of a solid color; the dithering itself is handled in the draw functions in Adam/Gr/GrBitMap.HC.
The mention of real-time path tracing piqued my interest. Couldn't find any code in there that does that, but maybe TAD's vocabulary calls it something other than "path tracing," thwarting my attempts to text-search it. Do you have any info/resources on how that works? :D

Back in my day we could boot off a floppy...I didn't see an sd card until I was already a man and it was nothing but blinding lol.
While I have previous heard of and somewhat read about this OS, I have only spend the last couple days really learning about it and its creator. I have it up and running in QEMU under Linux but will definitely be running it dedicated hardware as soon as I can.
One day i will cure my internet addiction, install TempleOS, and never look back.
At least there are 2 more things that makes TempleOS very impressive:
- It's not "yet another UNIX/Linux or MS-DOS clone". It's mostly original, with some ideas inspired by good old C64 days: no multi users, no memory protection etc.
- It's self hosting. No idea how Terry build the first TempleOS (perhaps assembler), but now it's written in a language called Holy C (sort of C with some basic OOP support). Some people are known for building OS kernels, some people are known for designing programming languages . Terry did both.
Ive added in Networking to the OS. Its rough and ugly but its working. If I can ever get the time im going to try and update Temple to take more advantage of todays hardware. After reading through his code I think its possible but it will take me a long time to try and learn what I need to get that going. Surprisingly (even today) his code is for the most part very efficient. He made some odd choices when he wrote Temple... choices I dont understand, but they work. I dont want to ruin what he has done, but only add too it.
How does someone get hold of that addition?
