SamandClaude Fable 5 e62624b11a the client boots with no install, and the idle egui lane goes quiet
- with no WoW install the client boots to the login screen instead of panicking on frame one: three world systems demanded install-gated resources their own startup never inserts
- `WOW_DATA=` — set and empty — means there is no install, in any build; the cursor says "no client data" once instead of thirty-one times
- the per-frame `bevy_egui pass output has not been prepared` ERROR is gone: a gated context runs an empty pass itself, so the idle lane keeps its savings and the log stays silent
- ECS diagnostics name their system in a dev build — no more `<Enable the debug feature to see the name>` in a panic

SamandClaude Fable 5 b932302d79 the lava bubbles move again, and the bonfire keeps its wood
- Blackrock Mountain's lava bubbles animate at last: their sprite's flip-book channel was baked from a sequence they never play — UV and tint loops now bake per sequence, and a placement whose sequences disagree gets its own material
- a bonfire's logs were vanishing while its flame burned on: a body planted just under its own floor now claims the room above it, and the flame card and fire sound follow the body's cull instead of outliving it
- a WMO prop's animation host stops being cull-tested as an object in its own right
- WOW_TILE_RADIUS's doc now states its real default, 2, and why

SamandClaude Fable 5 911f974e09 the Rookery eggs hatch, and the bubble finds its height
- UBRS's Rookery eggs hatch on approach now: the trap's despawn-anim packet was silently dropped and the entity freed the instant the destroy landed — the packet is parsed, and the reference's refcount pin holds the egg alive through its 2.7 s burst before it goes
- the AQ drakes' crawl is the server's doing: vmangos flies cyclic paths at walk speed, and the client's ride measures exact against the wire — the motion is inspectable now, down to a per-spline trace
- the chat bubble sits at the height 1.12 gives it: a latched constant from the model's stand box, replacing the posed-attachment anchor the RE just refuted
- the trigger-creature render gate folds back from the binary, byte citations corrected

SamandClaude Fable 5 04340a6893 addon art resolves: loose textures, TGA and the honest return
- an addon's own texture files resolve from its folder, TGA included, and SetTexture answers 1 or nil the way the client does — custom icons and skins draw
- runtime SetParent re-levels a frame by the client's strata law, and the raise survives hide-and-show round-trips — AtlasLoot layers right
- an addon that unregisters an event mid-fire no longer robs the next addon of the same event — Bagnon's per-character database fills again
- the Model widget's clock truncates milliseconds like the client's, and the no-text cast-bar law is confirmed at the bytes and narrowed to the cast bar alone

SamandClaude Fable 5 2c1ffca2ca dialogs come to the front, and the red line names what it needs
- dialogs carry the reference's toplevel bit, so the stack-split window opens above Bagnon instead of behind it
- the failure line fills its blank — "Requires Blacksmith Hammer", not "Requires" — and Opening casts stop printing a label the spell itself marks "no text"
- the pet bar's Attack/Follow/Stay tooltips name their keybinding, and typed text reaches the focused frame through the client's own delivery walk
- AtlasLoot parses again: our Lua keeps 5.0's compatibility semicolon

SamandClaude Fable 5 606a72bde5 skill-ups announce again, and the stack split fills its window
- a real skill-up prints its line; the lines the client keeps silent — class specs, racials, mounts — stay silent, off the game's own flag
- the stack-split dialog draws whole: its plate fills the window
- the four bag-bar buttons speak the reference's names all the way down, so Bagnon's overrides catch them and the backpack button lights while its window is open
- regions anchor at creation — the client's implicit-anchor law replaces a pile of draw-time fallbacks

SamandClaude Fable 5 b990a5a048 script errors reach the player, and the bars stop lying
- an addon error shows the red script-error dialog the reference shows, and a runaway load loop can no longer freeze world entry
- food and drink show stack counts from the first login, and a paladin's aura bar lights the aura that is actually on
- logging out no longer erases the character from saved-bag addons: the player's absence is no data
- MPQ patches are discovered the way the client discovers them, and a slow arrival holds in place instead of falling through the world

SamandClaude Fable 5 aaf4c07ab1 zone channels wait for the world, and end with the character
- the zone-channel walk waits for real ground under the player, so login stops joining and leaving channels for zones you were never in
- the channel session ends with the character: a character switch no longer replays the old channels into the new session
- emoting at yourself goes out untargeted — "You wave.", exactly as the client sends it
- a body that is not in the scene casts no shadow, names nothing and cannot be clicked; and being attached to a body is not the same as being allowed to move it

SamandClaude Fable 5 a075a2ef44 channel lines get their warm color, and a /wave gets its sentence
- a channel line renders in the channel family's color, not the grey notice row the client consults and throws away
- a text emote composes its sentence — gender and target picked from the game's own tables — so a /wave is a line in chat, not just an animation
- a FontString's `font=` resolves a font object by name and gates the whole block, `<Gradient>` tints the art it sits on, and buttons' state fonts read `font=` too — Bagnon's white boxes and bare stack counts are fixed
- the money frame sizes its coins from the digits themselves, so Bagnon's gold stops opening cramped

SamandClaude Fable 5 404bbb0c6a lava creeps again, and sealed rooms empty of outdoor bodies
- lava and slime surfaces creep on the building path — the two liquid types the reference animates, and only those
- particle blend 1 is AlphaKey: the rock elemental throws tumbling chips instead of flat pale squares
- standing in a sealed room, outdoor creatures are never submitted to the scene at all — the reference's own election, not a hide
- an animation clip's arm frame fires no event keys, matching the client's walker rule frame for frame

SamandClaude Fable 5 d7f6a90bca the map's invisible walls are read from the bytes at last
- the terrain's impassable-chunk flag is parsed and fenced the way the binary fences it — all four sides, floored, rising only — so movement stops exactly where 1.12.1 stops
- a vertex normal authored as all zeros is legal content: the normalize is guarded, and the flat-black sleeves and skirts get their lighting back — a corpus sweep found 73 affected models nobody had filed
- Caverns of Time's asteroid belts turn: a rigid bone needs no rig

SamandClaude Fable 5 6e7867147d birds stop blinking out, and the version check is answered
- an animated doodad is culled by its authored box, not its bind pose — the one-yard bird flying a 64-yard circuit stops vanishing with the camera angle — and the fix survives the engine's own bound recompute
- the logon proof answers the server's version challenge instead of sending zeros, so a strict realmd stops rejecting benilla as a modified client
- two instruments land: a frame-by-frame visibility trace for one model, and a probe that classifies whether a realmd enforces the version check

SamandClaude Fable 5 ea1f0d2bb5 reputation arrives: the wire, the pane and a live watch bar
- the Character window's third tab is in: faction rows under their headers, standing bars, the detail popup and the watch bar, at the reference's own anchors
- all four reputation opcodes parse byte-exact, the flag byte reads the way the client reads it, and a standing gain reveals the faction unless it is hidden
- an end-to-end golden drives live wire bytes through the game data to the exact visible row list
- the reference-code overlap is measured by an instrument instead of asserted — the start of a debt paid in full later in the day

SamandClaude Fable 5 44ff435304 the addon arc: the AddOns folder opens
- benilla loads real 1.12 addons from Interface/AddOns — TOC, XML and Lua through one loader, with per-addon saved variables, Bindings.xml and the lifecycle events addons expect
- both AddOns screens are in: the character-select list with per-addon enable state, and the ESC menu's in-game list
- the API surface is measured, not guessed — a corpus harness runs hundreds of real 1.12 addons and ranks exactly which globals, templates and verbs they demand
- the Lua dialect is the client's own, read off the binary — 5.0 semantics with the 1.12 additions, and UI source files are bytes, not UTF-8

SamandClaude Fable 5 bfb3e3addc the player build: one binary that carries its content
- a player build ships beside the dev one — dev chords and probe surfaces go dark, and a gate enforces what a player can still reach, by medium not by module
- the binary carries its own shaders and its shipped UI, finds the WoW folder by itself, and keeps its local state in one benilla-config folder
- the glue screens get a capture shutter, and the engine stops depending on the protocol crate

SamandClaude Fable 5 6c6a0c9b88 quest timers, honest interiors, and snow rebuilt from the bytes
- 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

SamandClaude Fable 5 76e787d704 step budgets come from the binary, and a step-down follows the ground
- the step-up and step-down budgets are the client's own verified numbers, and the step regime is chosen by the blocking edge
- walking off a kerb follows the surface down instead of diving past the edge; steep ground supports you only while you are descending onto it
- a ride on a moving platform survives the ground snap, and a vertical wall no longer depends on a float's sign
- trainer and craft rows sort with the real client's own comparators, one per window — Beast Training lists a skill's ranks in ascending order again

SamandClaude Fable 5 8794e340cc the Ironforge lava returns, and the sound crackle is cornered
- the Great Forge's lava stays drawn from every angle, and the chasm catwalk reads as a connected grate again
- music decoding and shader-compile bursts stop crowding the audio's lane, and the output buffer follows the device's real deadline
- the audio path grows its instruments: a mix tap to WAV, a starvation meter, a hardware overload listener
- trainer detail icons carry the reference's own tooltip

SamandClaude Fable 5 d16d33dfca world books open, and anvils stop offering a cursor gear
- clicking a book in the world opens it and turns its pages: letters and world books share one reader
- the cursor's object rules are the client's own 31-row strategy table now, so decorative objects stop pretending to be usable
- trainer and tradeskill windows draw each row's icon by the reference's own law, and the trainer's filter dropdown toggles again
- water color follows the zone's light blend, so lakes stop snapping between area tints

SamandClaude Fable 5 19461d1e0f fishing becomes whole: the bite, the line, the splash and the reel
- the whole loop plays: the line arcs rod tip to bobber, the bite splashes with its own sound, and clicking the bobber reels in
- the verdicts read like 1.12: yellow "your fish got away" lines, the reel-in sound, the fishing loot window
- "You feel rested." prints on the transition, rest states come from the client's own Exhaustion table, and level 60 trades the XP strip for the max-level rail
- the Skills pane lists what the real client lists: the hidden rows, the sort, gray numberless single-rank lines

SamandClaude Fable 5 cd58f90bec a chat link is one token now, and tooltips print true costs
- a chat link edits as one atomic token: the caret can't land inside it, its colors survive, one keypress removes it whole
- spell tooltips print the resolved mana cost through the reference's own table walk, and the "% of base mana" line dies
- the spirit healer's confirm comes back after a cancel and wears its warning icon
- the dressing room's pane is a live animating model, and a tried-on bow lands in the hand

- water-only spells refuse on dry land: aquatic form gates to swimming, client-side like the real one

- pet ability cooldowns sweep on the pet bar, and the bar binds to 1.12's Secondary Action Button keys
- the options window scrolls its pages in a real trough with seated arrows, nothing overflows the frame anymore
- Esc un-queues a queued strike, and a hostile unit's frame stops showing buffs the real client hides

SamandClaude Fable 5 8549f14dd6 footprints on snow and sand, and the drunk effect staggers in
- drink enough and the screen blurs and your walk meanders, the camera carried along with the stagger; the underwater blur ships in the same lane
- boots leave prints on snow and sand that fade away in about six seconds, paws and hooves included
- key bindings move into the Options window with the rest of the settings, and action buttons abbreviate their hotkeys the way the client does
- the pet bar rearranges by drag, a running pet spell shows its active icon and a click cancels it, and spell ribbons follow their verified physics

SamandClaude Fable 5 ff1524f85f key bindings become real, and the pet knows when to refuse
- every rebindable key runs through one chord-to-command engine, set in the era Key Bindings window, and buttons show their real keys
- a spell aimed at the ground sends its projectile to that spot, arcing to the point instead of a target
- a pet ordered onto something it can't attack refuses cleanly, and its frame shows the happiness face read from the client's own data
- a window's tabs clamp to the drawn edge and highlight exactly where they sit

- five rooms that always read bone dry hold their water now, the Deeprun Tram's flooded stretches among them
- macros fire through the client's own chat door, and the macro window fits its tabs and scrolls its icon chooser
- the options window grows a Nameplates page and its first dropdown, and the name-display switches apply live in the world

- the macro system lands: the macro window, the icon chooser, /cast and /macro, and macros dragged onto the action bar
- hunter shots look right at last: the bow draws and releases on the shot, and the arrow lays a spark trail its whole flight
- the options window re-dresses in 1.12's own art with the classic dialog look, and gets a working search box and clickable steppers

- Undercity's broken corridor returns, geometry and color both: a one-byte file overrun dropped the whole room, and a paint job one record short was being thrown away entire
- collision goes one-sided like the real client: walls stop you from the front and let you pass from behind
- the Booty Bay entrance is wood and rope again instead of a black cutout, glass picks up a real reflection, and models far from the map's center stop trembling

- the Controls page lands (sticky targeting, auto loot, invert mouse), UI scale waits for the era Apply button, and the terrain-distance slider retires
- with auto-loot in effect a lootable corpse shows the triple-pouch cursor, the real client's tell

- 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 mounted left shoulder's wild swing is fixed at the bone: a bone flagged to ignore its parent's rotation now does, decided before any camera-facing runs
- a gameobject effect with several animation sequences plays the right one: Molten Core's rune flame spreads and dances instead of collapsing into a bright dot
- the targeting cursor asks the thing under it and greys by default like the real client, and the ground-target reticle keeps its own location rules

- enchanting asks before it acts: a bind-on-enchant item gets its confirm popup, and so does replacing an enchant that's already there

SamandClaude Fable 5 59b4a4f4ce buff timers tick, ground spells find the floor, stuck drags let go
- buff durations count down properly: the bar polls the remaining time every frame and a server-sent span reads as real seconds
- ground-targeted spells find the floor: Consecration's and Flamestrike's hovering discs ride the decal projector, and Frost Nova's births ride its expanding ring (the emitter params are per-frame tracks now)
- a spell or action stuck on the cursor lets go on a left click, and a macOS hardware-cursor drift heals itself in-process
- a stealthed weapon fades right: the fade twin's cutout follows the source blend, so an opaque batch never alpha-tests mid-fade

SamandClaude Fable 5 ab65981ebf cooldown pies, warmed shaders, and a tamer Frost Nova glow
- the spellbook draws the cooldown pie on a spell that's cooling down, and the active form's slot lights its checked ring
- shader variants warm at startup (with a tripwire if one ever compiles live), so a first cast no longer hitches on shader compile
- additive glow stacks clamp the way the original scene does, taming Frost Nova's blown-out mist, and shoulder cards split only at rigidly separable bones
- the login handshake now reads the same under both SRP encodings, and cooldown events no longer race the net step

SamandClaude Fable 5 167f80d92d stealth dims its sparkles, and gear changes stop rebuilding you
- a stealthed unit's particles and ribbons now dim with the body, and a depth-prime pass stops overlapping translucent parts from darkening each other
- changing gear re-dresses the character in place instead of tearing the whole model down and rebuilding it
- terrain tiles furnish cell-by-cell and model render forms build paced across frames, so first contact with fresh ground no longer hitches
- Ghost Wolf renders properly ghostly, and a live toggle swaps its action-bar icon to the active form while it holds

SamandClaude Fable 5 76cc038998 zone discovery says so, and tile crossings stop churning
- crossing into a new zone lands the whole discovery moment: the "Discovered" toast, the experience line in chat, and the race-keyed jingle
- crossing a tile boundary no longer recycles a whole row of terrain: a keep-band holds what you just left, unloading is budgeted, and fresh requests stagger instead of bursting
- a sheath swap moves the weapon (and its sparkles) to the new slot instead of rebuilding it, and a fading model now dims its own effects with it
- pressing the cast button again cancels the cast, and a form that can't cast a spell refuses it locally instead of round-tripping the server

SamandClaude Fable 5 9562380a64 deaths dissolve properly and item effects reach every pane
- elementals no longer freeze mid-air as corpses: a one-shot death band's clock now clamps instead of wrapping, so the authored dissolve plays out
- an equipped item's sparkles, cards and glows reach the character-select booth and the character sheet's model pane, and a tint reaches a unit's attached items too
- unit lighting is back on the terrain-shade chain, and light ramps chase a clamped target so walking from sun into shade actually ramps
- test accounts gained a full-roster seeding verb (every class levelled, geared and specced in one command)

SamandClaude Fable 5 3fbfebd604 stealth you can see, item glows, and smooth character-select skies
- stealth reads as stealth now: the body fades to the reference's 30 % and creeps with the proper stealth walk and stand poses
- the item and enchant glow subsystem exists: permanent weapon glows and enchant visuals show in the world and at character select
- the character-select background's colour banding (the reported "16-bit" look) is fixed at the render target, and the tauren stage's black corners with it
- aura body tints got a real per-instance channel, so a spell can tint the whole unit without touching its neighbours

SamandClaude Fable 5 56c62c7591 point-and-click casting: Blizzard lands where you aim
- ground-targeted spells work end to end: press the button, get the targeting cursor, click the ground, and the cast ships on the wire the way the real client sends it
- a reticle sized to the spell's real radius rides the cursor, and on the click the storm model, falling shards and area sound all land at the point
- character screens: a newly created character comes back selected on the list, and the authored layout scales to small windows instead of clipping the bottom controls off
- blob shadows ride their receiver's clip transform and the raster bias that kept them faint is measured and fixed

SamandClaude Fable 5 d3e05f32e5 the world only pays for what's on screen, and the leak is gone
- terrain draws per chunk now, and one authority culls everything outside: buildings, billboard cards, particle emitters
- the fps and memory creep on long flights is fixed twice over: material animations only tick what something draws, and far-away art is released by distance (with a 30 s dwell floor so fast cameras don't thrash it)
- the second crash ever reported (a cast racing a despawning unit at flight speed) is fixed, with a regression test that reproduces the exact panic
- every build now prints which commit it is, so a bug report can say exactly what it ran

SamandClaude Fable 5 03aa04e54d no world until a character is in one
- The login screen stops paying for a world nobody is in. It had been
  streaming and simulating all of Elwynn Forest behind a static image — the
  client began life as a terrain viewer and the streamers never had an off
  switch. The world now boots when you enter it, aimed at the map your
  character is actually on, and logging out releases it. Login frame cost:
  p50 18.6 to 10.3 cpu ms, worst paced frame 308 to 20 ms; entering
  Stratholme is a covered 1.2 s load.
- More login-screen honesty: the fullscreen glue image was re-uploaded to
  the GPU every frame — 22 MB a frame for a still picture — and the
  braziers' fire had been invisible since the 25th, simulating perfectly
  into a camera that is off, because two booths had computed the same render
  layer. Both fixed; the flames are back.
- Indoors got truer: the outdoor world draws only through the portal windows
  actually in frame, as the original does; the painted-skybox gate settled
  on the reference's real rule — any sky-flagged room the portal flood
  reaches; and interior objects — gates, hanging signs, chains — take their
  room's baked light, anchored at their box centre instead of an artist
  pivot that often sits under the floor.
- Hovering with a tooltip up takes its full fix: a tooltip content change
  used to run the whole-UI layout solve twice, and it runs once now, on top
  of the morning's fix that made an unchanged tooltip cost nothing at all.
