Could you build this?

Partial The UI and file handling can be vibe-coded, but modernizing a 2003 Win32 3D engine's source requires graphics and C++ expertise that AI assistance alone won't reliably provide.

What it would actually take: Expect to work in C++ with the Win32 API and DirectX or OpenGL, fixing legacy assumptions (old DirectX versions, resolution handling, deprecated APIs) so the restored engine runs on modern Windows. The scene editor needs a working serialization format compatible with the original assets. This requires experience with graphics pipelines and reverse-engineering legacy code, though the restored source reduces the work considerably.
