Super noob/want to start an old school retro/have questions!

[Terraestrial]

HEY ! Please go easy on me, lol.

I’m new here, and I just got into retros. The most experience I have with game programming is modifying emulators of old SNES and Pokémon gba games.

I’ve got a few questions:

• Is customization of default avatars possible? like say, instead of a person, you could be a dragon. I wanted to make a hotel where everyone is animals/fantasy creatures!
• can I run a //seriously// old school server? I’m talking like 2006-2010 era UI with the hand that has furni, the old yellow console… ect
• is it possible to have all the old public rooms? (with the mini avatars and such?)

gonna post images for reference. I’m definitely more of an artist than a programming savvy person, but I’m willing to learn!

Then if you want to look at the decompiled code for v14 you can get a peek here

Inside this repo Quackster links to Projectorrays which indeed can decompile cast files

However in order to reassemble them you need Director 2004, some coding skills and a good amount of trial and error.

So yes, all you ask you can do if you're willing to invest the time.
