I have unironically installed that shit back in the day because it looked so good and it really did what was advertised, but IIRC you had to buy mode models or some shit I don't know
I uninstalled it without using much because back then my PC was shared

holy shit this
i used to love this

confirmed. This was originally for xp

why would you install this shit instead of just watching a stripping video?

Good old Win XP has lots of fun softwares.

Anyone remember that old Windows 3.1 game with Sadam Hussein running across the screen with a cart full of WMDs and you had to click him to fire a rocket at him?

Had a nostalgia trip with old Windows Media Player skins and a Windows ME VM a few months back thanks to the Wayback Machine: web.archive.org/web/20100801073705/http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/skins.aspx

3DNA was a first-person desktop experience.
You'd walk around a 3D environment and have a bunch of places to launch other applications on top of the shell.

You could download a basic version for free and they'd sell other environments. It even had a tutorial for how to navigate the 3D environment and interact with it.

Now that VR is becoming popular I'm surprised stuff like this isn't coming back yet.

It's something Valve could actually jump on to add to SteamVR.

3DNA appeared to be an MSI thing for the purpose of showing off emerging tech on OEM machines and as a form of promotion.

Do you have a copy for that?

I unironically had this at some point. Not sure if I deliberatly installed it myself or if it came embedded with something, probbaly also stupid as fuck. But this one is from early 2000's, not vista era.

HOT!!

or late 90's even. No so sure anymore.

Come to think of it, something similar does already exist for the purpose of playing games. New Retro Arcade.

I pirated the paid pack when I was a horny teenager

I remember when I was a kid there was a program that let you pick hammer flamethrower and lot of other things use them to break desktop and you could also put ants on there and kill them with various tools like hammer, flamethrower.
does anyone know its name

see

oooh noice

Desktop destroyer also came in a Christmas version.

It's part of an example software provided by Gemtree for their Peter visual programming tool aimed at children. They used to have all these applications available to download on their website.

SteamVR is basically this

I enjoyed playing around with this Gemtree software back then, some were more significant than others like a third person ant shooter game, others were small novelties.

They had mascot characters, Peter and Lucy, bizarrely enough one of the programs was pointing a flash light in a dark room to find Lucy bathing in a tub, and finding her would make her scream, then reset her position.

>Bathroom - you fossick with flash-lamp in the dark room. It is a little interference into Lucy privacy.

Not only SteamVR but WMR and Oculus Home are all pretty much that. I found the WMR one to be the most comfy.

Looking a bit farther, I found that all of the example programs are available here.

breatharian.eu/Petr/en/index.htm

Quite a nostalgia bomb for me.
Most kids back then knew about desktop destroyer, but we found a cool Gemtree game called Butches that worked over local network. So anyone on a school network could just launch the game and it would just work.

i had Freeraser for this purpose.

Now that the dust has settled. How do we turn back time?

Feds seized it for their own personal use. But we got Dennou Coil out of it too so that's something.

I fucking love this. Probably watched it over 100 times.
It's so fucking authentic and cool.

dl'ing music from napster, 2-3mb a piece, over 40 minutes each in your 56k modem (only after midnight to use the cheaper land line tariffs).

I'll never understand where the fuck I ever found the patience to build entire discographies under those constraints. If one 1gb video takes more than 3 minutes nowadays I'm already pissed and about to call myy isp.

The other parts are also great

I still remember the rare occasions when I got 5-6kbps on each mp3 download. The norm was 2-3.

I had cable in '98. How are you faggots still on 56k in 1999/2000? Truly embarrassing.

does anyone have one of those programs without the viruses? I just got a real tech job and I want a pimp ass fucking wallpaper with strippers

also maybe one with anime girls instead of disgusting irl diet-whores
