What I am looking for someone to do at the moment is build a small engine because I want to re-write the original game client. I do not have the source code to the original game client unfortunately because the source code for the client and server were lost some time ago when they liquidated.
I have pictures and videos of said game client running when the server was originally live. The only way to actually get the game client to function is to have the server back-end going and that is something I am re-writing as well because it used DirectPlay8 which is oldddd and unreliable. I am a c++ dev but I am not good with Ogre3D as stated. I did manage to get a hold of a scene viewer client (GOSE) that I could properly view all the original scenes.
I use to play said mmo when it was originally going, that is also why I am eager to revive it. I am mainly trying to see if there is anyone out there willing to help me first. As said just mainly looking for a small game client that would be built first to get the game world back up. Payment can be discussed if you would be willing to help. I would have a budget of up to $50,000 to get an entire game client re-built.
