Could you build this?
No Porting Bethesda's 1996 proprietary XnGine to Godot 4 requires expert-level reverse engineering of legacy binary formats, custom 3D math, physics, BSP level layouts, and assembly decompilation.
What it would actually take: This project requires reverse-engineering DOS binaries from 1995/1996 using tools like IDA Pro/Ghidra to reconstruct XnGine file formats (textures, 3D meshes, map geometry, audio, and script logic). A developer must then write custom C++ GDExtension or GDScript parsers in Godot 4 to translate those raw legacy data formats into modern scene trees, shaders, and physics colliders while faithfully replicating retro engine behavior and bugs.
