That is excellent piece of advice. So it seems that you know what you need to do: you should take research into TrueType rendering to properly simulate the Microsoft bilevel renderer. 

As you've noticed, FreeType is complex. It has many different modes. Screenshots from FontForge don't have any decisive value, because they're just screenshots from one client app.

As for the rest: Hin-Tak provided you with some useful pointers so you can start that research. 

And yes, the arrogant-aggressive stance isn’t exactly encouraging or helpful. 

Best,
