I have no clue where to put this, so i'm putting it here.
This is just a little project of mine to try and update a old version of /tg/, currently one from around July of 2014, although i am open to different versions based on popular opinion.
Help is accepted and welcomed, although i am capable of doing it by myself.
Here's the Github link:

you should probably investigate the security prs that will need to be ported
xss exploits etc etc

That's something i'll try to address later on, but for now, i need to get it running.

looks like the code is too outdated for your byond version to me

Yeah, that's what i figured. But i'm not too sure what, exactly, is screwing up.

There are currently two main issues right now, sight doesn't seem to work, and it's laggy. If anybody wants to help fix bugs, let me know.

In the meantime you can run it on a legacy BYOND build:

That's something i've already tried before, and while it works well, nothing related to BYOND accounts works at all. Meaning that all administrator actions are off limits.

I currently have 2 versions of the codebase, one from July 2014, which i'm currently using, and one from October 2015, which one should i continue on to use?

2014 to 2015 is a huge difference. If you really want vintage you should stick with 2014. But if 2015 would be a lot easier, go with that unless you want to go the extra mile with 2013 for those stungloves.
