- WMO water stops running the terrain-liquid program: the material key names WHICH renderer a pool takes, and the two WMO arms land — Blackfathom Deeps' interior pools take their authored per-vertex opacity and the material's own body colour (34, 38, 57 there — the dark blue-grey in the reference shot) instead of coming out opaque and daylit on the zone's river swatch
- the exterior WMO arm bands at sub-17, not sub-16 — teal, not olive — which is what the Stormwind canals actually read as
- a hole corner's authored height no longer counts as a height, and a corpus-wide instrument reports which WMO water arm every pool takes
- the ADT/Felwood golden sweep is bit-identical: open-world water is provably untouched

- timed quests get their countdown — a Quest Timers box under the minimap and a Time Remaining line in the quest log, kept against the server's own clock
- interiors go honest: footsteps stop crunching the terrain's snow through a building's floor, and tavern voices are authored dry, so the fake cave echo is gone
- snow is the reference's again — point-sprite flakes at the era's pixel size, and a spawn slab that leans into your run so a runner no longer outruns the field
- Stormwind stops drawing Elwynn through its walls, a looted quest crate's lid settles, cold zones puff visible breath, and the collect-quest toast fires only on a real advance

- a building's transition corridors carry the reference's bright-doorway fade: the black tunnel between sunlit outside and a lit interior is gone
- the Options window gets its first real pages: seven 1.12 sound rows on Audio and the two 1.12 Video Options sliders on Graphics, all live CVars
- terrain culls like the real client: the ground is one-sided, so from underneath you see through it exactly as 1.12.1 does
- the beam system's data plane lands: 48 live chain, drain and funnel beams read off the real patch chain, with a byte-exact wire golden — the renderer follows
