Mate. Shadowrun's sysem does not support persistency the way Arcanum's engine could. Stahp.If you conceptualize this project as 3 distinct components:
1) Rule conversion
2) World building
3) Game content
Neither 1) nor 3) care about the game engine (which is basically the combat engine). As far as maps go (this would fall under 3), Arcanum can easily convert to the hub-based and mission/ map-base structure that Shadowrun uses.
As for 2) I've thought through the details and basically everything can be implemented. Shadowrun is just Unity. You have to add some more functions to what currently exists but that's just Unity coding. If you look at how HBS made the campaign missions, they really have nothing hard coded, it's just coding in Unity. 90% of the work here is just implementing some new attacks for rogue abilities and spell abilities like stealing, etc...
For example, in SR: HK, Duncan's subdue ability is something that a normal character doesn't have access to. But Duncan isn't hardcoded into the engine. So how did HBS program that ability? HBS didn't change the game engine to implement new character abilities. The answer is that Duncan gets that ability from his armor. As long as we can define new abilities (which we can), we can implement any effect in Shadowrun's GUI/ combat engine.
Shadowrun's code and assets are extremely compatible with Arcanum's.
Anyway, World building is a solveable engineering problem. Where this project currently needs feedback and problem solving is rule conversion. How to convert Acranum's engineering schools and spell schools into useful abilities in the Shadowrun engine?
I'd say a year, a year and a half of work. Full time and for free. Not happening. I'm talking about the code part here.
You say you have work? No shit. Everyone has work.

See, this is not helpful.
But how do you feel about an encumberance system? Or Arcanum's durability system? Can I ditch those? How about shields/ dual wielding?

I hope you are trolling.. because you sound retarded.
I think it would be far far far more productive to work on a open-source engine - a Freecanum, if you will.

I did.. Stop jerking your little autistic pud about non-issues and go make a prototype that proves out your ideas.
Even now I am battering your tiny ego until you fuck off and get to work.
but that's the whole point. nobody wants more remakes.I'd say a year, a year and a half of work. Full time and for free. Not happening. I'm talking about the code part here.

You'd be a great salesman; you spit a lot of bullshit that sounds legit, even if highly implausible, and you seem quite genuine about it. But really you're actually just selling a worthless product that has no real merit.
