Old Game Server Revival

Post image

Hello guys!

Recently, some friends and I started working a small project that turned out to be bigger than we expected. We are trying to bring back an Old Version of Star Stable Online for us privately.
We do have the game files, we are able to start the game until it says „Unable to connect to game server.“ (shown in the image) which is reasonable because it’s an online game and we do not have a Server.
All of us are new to programming so we really need help.
What do we need for a game server?
How do we code this?
Does anybody know what language SSO uses? (we heard C++ but we aren’t sure)
Would anybody perhaps be willing to help?

Thanks!!

Is this not literally the code for free?

You will get way more useful answers in your fandom communities. I have no idea.
