A developer known as Heinz2001 has spent ten years researching, disassembling, and rewriting code from the classic RPG Ultima Underworld, correcting an unusual flaw in the game's 3D renderer. The work involved reverse-engineering dozens of lines of the game's bytecode and underlying assembly, with the corrected code now shared publicly. Commenters are praising the effort as an impressively dedicated piece of software preservation and modding work.
