why are we currently working on db2 from time to time, if db2.5 is almost done?

happyhamsterchan:
oh also, now that I have the code, how do I execute it?

Things are just very... flat.  Non-compartmentalized.  The graphics dig in to the physics and the DNA and bot memory and all that.  It's like a complicated phone operator's switchboard.  eg: picture of a switchboard.  Makes the code hard to maintain because a bug in area A might be caused by a bug in area W.

DB2, for all it's faults, is a relatively stable code base.  Whereas the C++ port was basically feature complete but still needed bug fixing.  And as I've come to learn, the last 10% of a project take 90% of the time.

So given that I wanted to start over in C# and do things right from the ground up, it just made sense to abandon the C++ code.

It's just C++ code.  Nothing fancy.  Stick it in either Visual Studio (I used VS6 for this, but it should work in later versions) or GCC and hit compile.
