Hacks and modifications in games and consoles they are not something of now and they have been very present either for better or for worse and is that even though many video game or console development companies boast that their product cannot be hacked and in the end it ends up closing their mouths in a matter of days.
Many hacks could be considered as "bad", since these are mainly focused on that the games can be installed for free and with this we go on to harm the developers or companies that give us new titles of our favorite games.
On the other hand, and leaving the negative, modifications also improve certain aspects of games, whether the ability to integrate skins, landscapes, skills, among other things is provided, and even many companies and developers have taken these hacks positively.
Although there have also been them to unlock certain restrictions in terms of graphics quality, since a certain XBOX ONE and PC game had this limitation (I do not remember which one) where the PC version showed lower graphics than on the console despite having a graphics card monster and seeing that this was because the game was configured like that, because not many took it in the best way.
And well, why mention this ...
Well the mention of it is because surfing the net I came across news that caught my attention and that I found it very interesting and above all very good to be able to share with our esteemed readers.
They install and run Doom in a VM on Minecraft
The news I found is that released a modding for Minecraft, but this is not just anyone. Since this It allows to run a VM on the game and after that, to install Windows 95 (although I also don't doubt that Linux or any other) and on it they were able to install and run Doom.
Although talking about Windows 95 or Doom may not be relevant, what is interesting is the ability to do this.
Besides that it is not for something, but Minecraft has earned a reputation for allowing players to let their creativity run wild. Of course, this is one of the characteristics of sandbox type games, as they do not necessarily have a goal predetermined by the game designer.
The player is free to fulfill the objectives defined by the developers of the game. game or itself using a tool panel to modify content, sometimes permanently.
The goal of the sandbox is to rely on the creativity of the players to solve problems without imposing an operational mode.
Therefore, these games are highly playable, increasing the lifespan of the game, as this is not limited to the initial content planned by the developers, but to the imagination and dedication of the entire community. players
And Minecraft is one of those games where the modding community is very active; brings several and varied mods that serve to improve the experience of the game, provide content or simply explore new possibilities.
This is the case of the mod VM Computer, which is based on Virtual Box, an open source virtual machine software that allows operating systems such as Windows 95 to run. With VM Computer, once in Minecraft, players can then emulate different virtual machines simply by using the block corresponding to a PC case that they will use to create virtual hard drives in order to install operating systems from ISO files.
Of course, The Minecraft community experimented with the VM Computers mod and one player got Doom will work on Minecraft; Therefore, it is possible to start Doom and play it thanks to the Windows 95 virtual machine once in Minecraft.
Players will definitely experiment more with this new mod, especially once people have PCs that start different operating systems in Minecraft worlds. You can even play Minecraft on a PC in Minecraft.
