The main challenge here is to create a robust internal structure and recode certain parts of jj2 like the engine itself. For such project, I'd likely require some help from experienced programmers (I dare not say any names) to discuss the blueprints and portability (possibly to work on the code as well).
While I must still include the big note about having very little free time for such projects, I am interested in helping with the core framework and engine that such a project would require. I know little about reverse engineering or JJ2 formats, but engine design, multithreading, and network programming are things I could do.

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.</div><div style="text-align: right; text-size: 80%;">1 Corinthians 13:4-7</div>
