SamandClaude Fable 5.1	afc0731ccc	nameplates are frames, guild names go overhead, and the camera pivots ... - a nameplate is a real frame under WorldFrame, six regions and a health bar in the reference's order, so pfUI, ShaguTweaks and _Nameplates find and restyle plates instead of seeing none; the plate stays out of the mouse's way in this cut (2148) - a player's guild shows under their overhead name in angle brackets, the line an NPC's subname already used, gated by the UnitNamePlayerGuild option at its stock on (2149) - smart camera pivot is on, as 1.12 ships it: a mostly vertical drag with the camera pressed against something tilts the view instead of swinging the arm, easing home on release; in water the pivot rises for a swimmer (2149) - Follow Terrain and head bob are built and ship off, as in 1.12: Follow Terrain leans the camera up or down the slope you are walking onto, and head bob sways the first-person eye in a figure of eight while you move (2149) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-11 20:55:15 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5.1	31371641eb	the mailbox takes typing again, and events carry their real arguments ... - the mail window's send tab takes typing again: the subject, body and money boxes were taking no input while the recipient box swallowed every key, and a sent letter clears its subject and item icon instead of putting them straight back (2145) - seven events fire the way the reference does: UNIT_DYNAMIC_FLAGS fires at all, swapping two identical stacks between bank slots fires PLAYERBANKSLOTS_CHANGED twice, the pet sheet's training points repaint, and ITEM_LOCK_CHANGED loses its invented arguments (2140) - nine widget methods 1.12 addons probe for are in: ShaguTweaks stops recolouring textures the reference leaves alone, pfUI and _Nameplates stop raising on a tooltip's GetAnchorType, and 63 AceEvent addons get RegisterAllEvents (2142) - six post-1.12 methods leave the widget surface (SetSize, SetShown, HasFocus, SetFormattedText and two tooltip verbs), so an addon reaching for a later client's API finds what a real 1.12 client gives it (2142, 2146) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-11 20:52:50 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5.1	44803419a7	the model pane takes the file's camera, and the who list sorts ... - the `<Model>` widget's perspective leg: a pane whose file supplies the camera it selected renders through a camera of its own whose viewport is its own cell of the same tile atlas — the reference's structure, one target, a viewport per widget, depth cleared per widget — with the composite, packer and reaper untouched; the selection is RAW (`0x76cec0` reads the count off `MD20+0x124` and the record at `[model+0x3c4] + idx·0x84 + 0x80`, `cameraLookup` never consulted), so `M2Model::cameras` is the whole table in file order and `benilla-extract m2cam` prints it, reproducing wow-re's numbers to the digit; the camera is two fields because the reference has two — `+0x320` a PENDING index and `+0x31c` the installed one — and while a request is pending the pane paints nothing (`76d5f0`'s draw gate, now the paint list's own filter); an index past the count installs the NULL camera, which IS the orthographic leg every shipped in-game pane takes; the projection is the booths' byte-derived diagonal-FOV matrix at the pane's aspect, and the eye and target ride the model's root transform as `0x718960`'s publish does — so `SetFacing` cancels along with `SetPosition` and `SetModelScale`, a contradiction with a wow-re note that went out as a §5 round and came back agreeing: the up vector `0x7ac640` builds is model-space +Z at roll 0, the very axis the facing turns about, and the note's sentence is scoped to `<PlayerModel>`'s frozen camera; each perspective camera takes a render layer of its own from a pool of eight, the orthographic camera clears the atlas and every perspective one clears only depth; `SetLight` is a typed `CGLight` that folds each intensity into its colour, normalises a direction on write, quantizes to 8 bits, returns before the copy on `SetLight(0, …)` and reads the second intensity at index 8 on a short ambient block; the five fog verbs are built (`ClearFog` is `76f5c5 and [edi+0x3a4],-2`, bit 0 alone), so the `Model` UNBUILT list is empty for the first time since 1134; a pane that arms a light or fog takes a rig from a lazily-grown pool, and the tiles' material twins — never reaped since the cache was written — are; `WOW_PROBE_MODEL_CAMERA=1` reads the renderer's own camera back for the three cancellations, `pass=5 fail=0` (2027) - the layout cache writes in the shutdown tail: an unlocked chat window's size and position did not survive `/logout` or `/reload` and `benilla-config/layout/` was never created (B353) — the lane was right (1.12.1 persists a chat window through `StartMoving`/`StartSizing` and the engine's userPlaced bit; no `SetChatWindowSaved*` verb exists in the 5875 FrameXML), but `UiLayoutPlugin` hung its flush on `OnExit(InWorld)`, which a `/reload` never leaves, its debounced writer was never registered in `Update` at all, and on the roots where the edge did fire the VM-reading saver raced `end_ui_session`'s VM replacement on the same unordered edge (measured: the placement moves with nothing but registration positions); the reference's UI shutdown `0x490bd0` has an ordered tail — `PLAYER_LOGOUT` (`0x490c2a`) → `layout-cache.txt` (`0x490c79`) → the flat saved file (`0x490c7e`) → the per-addon files → `AddOns.txt` — on the same five roots as SavedVariables, `/reload` included, so `save_now` joins `shutdown_ui_state` in that slot, one call site reached from every root, and its own edges are deleted; the debounce stays as the crash writer and only that, a deliberate divergence, and the chat-look flush next door is pinned `.before(end_ui_session)` (2029); the VM gets its font engine at the LOAD edge: the measurer was seated only from an `Update` system on the first frame the glyph atlas exists, but `ReloadUI()` mints a fresh VM and runs the in-game load in the same exclusive slot, so every `<OnLoad>` and every addon's file scope measured 0 through the whole reload (`LOAD MEASURE ZERO` live, 33.185 after) — `seat_text_measurer` is one construction site called from both edges; the options tabs fit once from `<OnShow>`, the `OptionsTab_FitWidth` OnUpdate poll and its `fitted` latch gone, because `GetStringWidth` answers in the region's own units and this window's 0.78 scale is applied in the window's own `<OnShow>` after every `<OnLoad>` — an OnLoad fit read 73.19 where the settled value is 76.47; the settled widths are unchanged to the last digit (76.467232 / 91.661896) and the one-frame 72/87 flash at every open goes; four comments that still called the text measure a frame late, and seven gossip-suite comments that put `UIPanelScrollFrameTemplate` in our `ScrollTemplates.xml` when it lives in the reference's `UIPanelTemplates.xml`, are corrected (2028) - the `/who` sort is a seven-key chain, not "order by the clicked column" (B365): the reference keeps seven `{key, dir}` slots at `0xc2817c`, seeded zone → level → class → group → name → race → guild; `SortWho` (`0x5ad890`) promotes the clicked key to the front and flips its direction ONLY when it was already there — Name, Name reverses, Name, Level, Name restores what the first click left — and the comparator `0x5ada00` walks the chain as tie-breakers, most-recently-used first, through an ASCII fold (`A`–`Z` by `+0x20`, not a Unicode one), the three DBC arms comparing the localized name out of `ChrClasses`/`ChrRaces`/`AreaTable` where ours had sorted by raw id, and an unresolved row TIES (its miss jumps to `0x5adbb2`, the chain loop's own `inc esi`); the click fires `WHO_LIST_UPDATE` synchronously through `SignalEvent` at `0x5ad9ed`, so the binding promotes and sorts the snapshot and the handler repaints before the OnClick returns, where ours redrew a tick later — a redraw one click stale reads exactly like a header that does nothing; the chain is process state (initialised once from `0x401666`), so it survives a logout; the rider from the same carve: `SMSG_WHO` has two exits, and with `SetWhoToUI` clear more than three rows go to the frame with nothing printed and three or fewer to chat (`0x5adfcc jl`, `eax = 3`) where we printed every unclaimed answer; and wow-re's §11 round corrected the first build before it landed — the chat lines come out in WIRE order with the total line LAST, because `0x5ae0a1` composes each line inside the parse loop and the `qsort` at `0x5ae0e2` sits past its back-edge (2030) - two lighting reports, one frame and one bit each: the surfacing hitch (B354) is a one-frame stale atmosphere — `update_time_lighting` is late by construction, waiting on the wire drain, the weather tick and the submersion verdict, and five `Update` systems that read the `WowLighting` it resolves declared no ordering, so the executor handed each of them last frame's value, deterministically and invisibly while the atmosphere drifts a minute at a time; at a submersion crossing it jumps, on the very frame the sky and cloud domes un-hide, so the first dry frame painted `LightParams` 27's underwater sky over a dry world (the clip's blue frame, (58, 137, 173) against the settled (53, 58, 34)) and `tick_clouds`' surfacing full-rebuild ran at the underwater cloud density, 0.0, rebuilding an empty field that crept back over 0.4 s — the fix for the pop-in handing the symptom straight back; `LightingConsumeSet` names the read side of `LightingResolveSet`, tied in one place, and four consumers join it, the FFX haze and warp are ordered after the verdict they had the same hole against, and two tests enforce it — zero ambiguities between the two sets, and a source scan over `benilla-world` that fails any `WowLighting` reader not in the set; `emit_minimap` is left stale knowingly because joining cost a 178th item through the world API wall; `WOW_FORCE_SUB=<frames>` holds the eye verdict submerged and releases it, so the crossing reproduces server-less (2032); the black furniture below a boat's deck (B373): `MeshTag` bits 6..=13 are the exterior payload's ground-shade byte and bits 6..=18 the interior payload's SH-probe slot, and `entity_shade` guarded the overlap by asking whether a part was on the interior classifier's Bake law — one of the TWO populations holding a probe slot; the other is a lit interior MODD prop, which a WMO-display GameObject parents under the net entity so it sails with the deck, putting it inside the light node's descendant walk — so every frame the boat's shade byte was written over each prop's slot, `(slot & 0x1f00) | byte`: a neighbouring prop's light where that row was live, a zeroed row — solid black — where it was not; the guard now asks the payload question (`probe_payload`) at both write sites, the tag's bits and the marker derived from one binding; measured live at Ratchet, 749 of 749 resident interior prop parts renamed before, 0 of 640 after, and both ledger leads refuted at the bytes — the MODD colours are healthy (`floor112` raises even `#010101` to diffuse 112) and the fold is rigid-motion invariant since every 1.12 transport authors zero MOLR lights; a prop's mouseover identity now names its lane, words and probe slot, and `WOW_PICK` prints `model_flags.z` (2031); the sea-crossing probe can now measure the seam a report names — an explicit `WOW_PROBE_DOCK` goes first, boards only once the body stands at the dock, carries a map id, takes only a candidate within boarding distance, and drops onto the deck rather than into the hull, because a taxi node's `z` is the WATERLINE for the sea ferries while their decks stand ~16 yd above it — and the seam re-anchor returns the cycle it moved to or `None`, so a healthy crossing no longer logs the server's 9.7 h uptime as a skew inside a 350 s cycle Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-06 19:37:40 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5.1	6cab3e9380	the far rain stops going black, and a seated body stays on its seat ... - black rain is a zero-padded mip: `RainDrop01.blp` stores its 2×16 and 1×8 DXT3 levels as one block each where the block grid needs four and two, our decoder zero-padded the rest — an all-zero BC2 block is black at alpha 0 — and the rain's Mod2x lane reads no alpha, so every far streak that minified onto levels 3 and 4 (three-quarters and half black by the census) multiplied the scene toward black from ~43 yd, where level 3 enters the trilinear blend, to the fog at 70; the reference sizes a stored level at `bpp·max(4,w)·max(4,h)/8` bytes from its file offset and the header's `mipSizes` never sizes an upload, so a short level is completed by the next levels' own grey blocks — `[L3 | L4 | L5 | L6]` — and `Header::dxt_level_span` reads that span on both decode entry points, CPU and native byte-identical, with `pad_to` kept only for a file that ends inside a level, which no shipped asset does (543 of 32,309 DXT files carry a short level, every one non-square, none past EOF); not a mip cap and not a grey fill — the file's next bytes are what the reference draws; wow-re's cross-check settled which arm is which: the block copier `0x5a5780` is live on the shipped Direct3D default (`0x5a0a80` → `0x5a4f60`'s cell `[6][6]`), the upload's `imageSize` at `0x59f4e6`–`0x59f515` over the zero-copy pointer (`0x5a8555`) on OpenGL, the same bytes either way — and the `GL_TEXTURE_MAX_LOD` clamp is dead on every device (its gate `[0xc0f274]` has one writer, a zeroed `ebx`), so every tail level is sampled; why it surfaced now: 1642/1645's isotropic trilinear takes the streak's width for its LOD where the retired anisotropy 8 took its length, which carried the far streaks onto level 3 inside the fog window for the first time; `benilla-extract blp --mips` writes every authored level and prints the per-level texel census, and a real-asset test pins the copy byte for byte (B358/B225, 2020, 2024) - the cooldown sweep draws again: the extract's `ModelPane` arm drew the atlas cell it found in the bridge, but the cell is packed by `sync_tiles` AFTER the extract and the conversion is memoized on the engine's list — so a cooldown armed on a quiet interface extracted once with no cell, the cell arrived a frame later, nothing re-ran the conversion, and the tile lived on the atlas for the whole cooldown with no quad on screen (the 2013 harness test had re-pinged the minimap to force a second conversion, encoding the defect as the contract); the arm now publishes the request — rect, paint key, alpha, clip beside the unit ladder — and `compose_tiles` appends one premultiplied quad per cell packed THIS frame in the `UiQuadAppend` lane, a function of the bridge alone; the second defect behind it: 2019's rotation rows were uploaded to the world's shared light buffer only, while a tile's material twin binds the tile's own black-light buffer whose mat-anim region is zero-initialised, so every quadrant read the identity — and `cooldown.blp` is 0.6-alpha black outside a four-texel strip, so the sweep would have drawn as a static disc and never cleared; `MatAnimMirrors` now carries the region into every buffer a lane binds under one generation gate; measured six seconds into a 30 s stance cooldown, the button rects read means of 79 and 22 against 150 and 48 before, the top-right wedge cleared from 12 toward 3 o'clock; `WOW_TILE_TRACE=1` is the tile probe (2023) - a body inside a GameObject's hull is left where the server put it: the reference's resolver is a time-of-impact sweep and nothing else — no push-out stage anywhere in `0x634040`'s closure, and `0x632830`'s clip drops a candidate face whose clipped vertices all sit more than 1/36 yd (`[0x7ff9c8]`) behind the prism's leading plane — where avian's slide opened and closed with a Gauss–Seidel push-out whose minimum translation for a tall capsule in a small box is horizontal, shoving a seated body 0.555 yd off its stool on the first frame after the server seated it (B359); the `depenetrate` stage is deleted rather than disabled, and because the deletion alone left the body unable to walk out (a straddled seat top read as a wall at t = 0) the sweep carries the reference's band as `BACKFACE_BAND`, measured against the face's vertices, so a body walks off a stool and still stands on a sloped floor its feet sit a few centimetres under; the creature clamp cast its down-ray from 2.5 yd above the seat, a probe the reference never casts — its settle sweeps DOWN from the current position (`0x636dcd`–`0x636e45`) and the only way up is the step-up after a blocking horizontal hit — which found a cage's lid as Galen Goodward's floor (B372; seat 22.416, ray from 24.916, lid 24.667): a walker continuing its path now runs the shared `grounded_step` from where it stood with a creature's own 2.0 yd rise budget (`[0x801628]`) and takes only the Y, an idle unit casts down from its seat with the 1/36 band above it, and continuity is one server path long since `0x7c6420` re-bases on every packet; the `clmp` trace tag (`WOW_CLAMP_TRACE`) reads one clamp cast and the `move` tag marks input-less travel as CREEP (2018); and a seated body is not re-faced by the mouse: the reference's mouse-MOVE handler `0x514400` rotates the camera unconditionally and hands its facing to the body only through `0x5145e0`, whose last conjunct is `GetStandState() == 0` (`0x51460c`, the client-predicted cache), with `0x5151b0` re-testing the descriptor byte — so a right-drag while sitting orbits the camera round a body that keeps its facing and sends nothing; benilla restored the facing on the stun/death predicate only and spun a seated body in its chair with every sample, streaming a `SET_FACING` each; `MoverInput::mouse_may_turn_body` carries the stand-state term, and the keyboard turn keeps `may_turn` alone because that path stands the body (2025) - the vendor window's face and name: the stock `MerchantFrame.lua` takes its title from `UnitName("NPC")` and its face from `SetPortraitTexture(MerchantFramePortrait, "NPC")` — the `"npc"` token, `CGGameUI`'s `[0xb4e2d0]` that every NPC window reads on its own `*_SHOW` — and that seam had four defects stacked on it: `feed_interact_npc` ran a frame ahead of the net apply, so the frame `SMSG_LIST_INVENTORY` raised `MERCHANT_SHOW` still held the previous NPC (the Goldshire inn titled "Innkeeper Farley" over Brog Hamfist's stock); `feed_units`' dirty gate had no interact term, so a swap to a second vendor moved no descriptor and skipped the feed; the memo row was never written, so `UnitExists("npc")` stayed true after a close; and `SetPortraitTexture` stored its token raw where the booth slots are keyed lowercase — the reference resolves every unit token through `0x515970`, whose ten compares are all `_strnicmp`, so the binding folds on the way in; the writer now seats itself `.after(apply_net_updates).before(drive_display_facing)`, pinned in the built schedule graph rather than the source, the gate takes `interact.is_changed()`, the memo is written, and the fold lands at the one seam where a Lua token becomes a slot name — every NPC window reads the same token through the same chain; `WOW_PROBE_VENDOR_SWAP=1` stands between Brog Hamfist and Barkeep Dobbins, 5.45 yd apart, reads the name inside `MERCHANT_SHOW`, opens one over the other and closes it — five FAILs before, five PASSes after (2022) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-06 19:36:25 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5.1	c3555b4eea	the cooldown goes stock, early-Z comes back, and lists reach the end ... - a size-less `<Model>` pane's rect is its file's box in layout units: the reference's geometry overrides (`0x76d080`/`0x76d0d0`) answer the bbox extent whenever no size is authored, `bboxExtent · 768·√(a²+1) · layoutScale` FrameXML units (`1280 · extent` at 4:3), written into the pane's layout input when the file's facts land, re-derived on an aspect change, and ended for good by any authored size; `SetPosition` is the same unit, which is how `0x4a7b20` centres the arrow at `½·GetWidth, ½·GetHeight` through the override — so the map arrow's sprite arm and its hand-sized 33.6 px footprint go (its rect is `0.0262 × 0.0263` layout units, 33.5 × 33.7 FrameXML units at 4:3, 41.0 × 41.2 at 16:9), and the stock `ItemAnim` pane plays the item push unadapted (`ReplaceIconTexture` on the type-14 batch, the 1000 ms clamp, the stock `OnAnimFinished`), `ContainerFrameAdapters.xml` losing 0887's Lua card and its hand-measured 42.41 × 124.72 rect — the implicit one at 16:9 — and keeping the keyring fork and the three bag verbs (2015); and the cooldown is the reference's own model: the texture-transform law `uv' = R_q((uv + t − p) ⊙ s) + p`, `p = (½, ½)`, the raw quaternion component-lerped and never normalised, is one function (`uv_transform`) with the shader's UV fold as its twin — rotation and scale tracks bake per file sequence slot beside the translation, the mat-anim table gains an affine row `[cos − 1, sin, sx − 1, sy − 1]` on `anim_slots.z` whose identity is the zero row so every static batch reads exactly what it did, and a UI tile clones the twin material per animated batch and writes both rows every frame off the pane's play head, never the world clock; the stock `Cooldown.xml` runs off the chain on 2007's two handlers, the file's four quadrant quads turned by their own rotation tracks (`0 → −90°` over each quadrant's 250 ms window, clockwise from 12 o'clock) and its alpha tracks revealing the star for the flash; retired: the native `Cooldown` widget and `SetCooldown` (an Era API 1.12 never had — `CreateFrame("Cooldown")` is the reference's unknown-type refusal now), the loader's `Model → Cooldown` substitution, the app's hand-built pie and star, and our `Cooldown.xml`; `assets/ui` is eight files (2019) - `UpdateMapHighlight` gets its zone-level exits (B360): at zone zoom ours returned the nil tail for every cursor position, so hovering Deadwind Pass from Duskwood showed no label where 1.12 shows "Deadwind Pass"; the reference's `0x4a7fa0` runs two lookups at zone level and answers a NAME only — first the current zone's exploration-gated overlay list (the builder at `0x4a6ad9` gating on the explored byte), each row's HitRect scaled by 1/1002 and 1/668 against the normalized cursor, edges inclusive, the first hit naming its Area1, then the continent grid re-windowed through the displayed zone's own rect, naming the neighbouring zone or city and nothing for the displayed zone itself — and only the name-only tail is reachable from there, fileName nil and the six coords zero, so the stock frame hides the highlight quad, as the director's own 1.12 shot shows; and `SetVerticalScroll` stores the offset as given (B370, B363): the reference's `0x786db0` compares the new offset against the old and writes it to `[+0x328]` verbatim, `0x787100` re-anchors the scroll child off it, and the range at `[+0x320]` is never read on that path — every clamp the reference exhibits is FrameXML's, through the scroll bar's `[min, max]`; ours clamped into `[0, GetVerticalScrollRange()]`, the child's overflow past the FRAME, which is 40 px short of where `FauxScrollFrame_Update` sends the bar on the 220-tall skills list (three rows lost) and 15 px short on the 287-tall who list (one); the setter fires `OnVerticalScroll` only on a change, as the bytes do, `BenillaScroll_Step` bounds its wheel in Lua where the reference's handler does, and the ScrollFrame kind's prose stops calling its offset unpinned (2017) - overdraw's cheap half, the sky first: since 0588 every sky element wrote `frag_depth = 0.0`, which costs a pipeline its early-Z, so on an outdoor frame every full-screen dome fragment under the ground and the buildings was shaded in full (the gradient's `asin`, `atan2` and eight table lookups at dawn and dusk) and thrown away; one shared `sky_vertex.wgsl` — bevy's mesh vertex verbatim plus `out.position.z = 0.0` — is now the vertex stage of the gradient dome, the cloud dome, the star patches and the celestial discs and glares, and the model lane's `WOW_SKY_DEPTH` branch moves from its fragment to its vertex, so no sky fragment declares `frag_depth` and the rasterizer rejects the covered screen before the shader runs; every sky `specialize` zeroes the rasterizer bias constant the `sky_order` rung had been leaking into `DepthBiasState::constant`, harmless only while the fragment overwrote its depth, and the prose beside the pin follows it; then the retained `static_gx` pass draws BEFORE bevy's opaque pass (`StartMainPass → static_gx → MainOpaquePass`) — buildings and doodads are the frame's best occluders and a terrain fragment its dearest, six samples a pixel — so walls reject the terrain behind them instead of the reverse, the pass taking the first-use clear with it and the dev depth probe ordered after it; measured on 16 capture scenarios: 14 bit-identical, `northshire-dusk` 1 px and `water-night` 11 px, attributed to exact depth ties on static/terrain silhouettes and last-bit interpolation noise; a depth prepass and near-to-far bins are declined until a journal says where the time goes (2016) - the grass cut goes per pixel because of a quarter-mip: `0x6813d0` sets `D3DSAMP_MIPMAPLODBIAS = +0.25` on stage 0 (`0x6813f4`) once per frame before the detail-doodad pass — capture-confirmed on all 29 doodad batches, and outside the `[0x6b1000, 0x6b3200)` scan 2004 had called complete; it decides the whole look because the `clutter_cut` probe finds 6 of 31 shipped detail atlases carry a BINARY alpha pyramid (mip 0 has DXT3's 16 levels, every level below exactly two, both starting zones among them), so `a × ramp` degenerates to a global on/off and every texel of a leaf crosses at the same depth — Elwynn's survivor coverage is flat at 47.6 % across the whole 52.5–61.1 yd band, then 0.0 %, while the probe's box-filtered control erodes 47.7 → 20.9 over the same band, so the art has the gradient the shipped pyramid threw away, and `clutter_size` puts the median tuft at 0.92 yd tall, 1.03 yd deep, a full yard for the boundary plane to sweep; the escape is bilinear: full alpha needs a 2×2 all-opaque texel neighbourhood, and those run out between mip 2 and 3 (179/56/10/0/0/0 on the dominant Elwynn cell), so the reference's λ ≈ 2.9–3.3 sits past the cliff and the tuft erodes continuously — 2.2 % of a tuft's pixels leave in the last half-yard with the bias, 11.6 % without, 24.2 % one mip sharper; wgpu has no sampler LOD bias, so the clutter lane re-samples base colour at `view.mip_bias + 0.25`, keeping the sampler every other model batch shares at the reference's 0; ruled out on the way: our BLP decoder (all nine uploaded levels byte-identical against the archive's 52 793 BLP2s), mip regeneration, the `has_mipmaps` byte's value 2 (a plain boolean, an authoring marker), anisotropy and geometry; what it does not fix is resolution-dependent, and so is the reference's own look — λ with the bias is 3.22 at the capture's 648p but 2.48 at 1080p and 1.48 at 2160p, so at a modern resolution the reference itself pops leaf by leaf, and scaling the bias with the viewport is one reversible line left for a look call (2021) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-06 19:35:31 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5.1	c92ca1b8ec	the autocast shine goes stock, and a disabled button keeps its art ... - the autocast shine is the reference's own Model: `UI-AutoCastButton.mdx` has no batch at all — four bones walking the corners of a 0.02-unit square on a 2 s loop, each with a spline emitter pouring 300 `GlowStar` sparks a second — and the tile renderer plays exactly that off the file's own tracks, so the hand-transcribed lane retires whole: `autocast_shine.rs` (the token texture, the extract's parked shine sites, the append-lane producer and its motion goldens), the extract's shine side channel, and `PetActionBarAdapters.xml`, since the pet button's numbers are the reference's (`setAllPoints` at `scale="1.2"`) and nothing was left to adapt; what stays is the director's two look calls, re-seated onto the reference's own objects — `SpellBookAdapters.xml` puts the stock `$parentAutoCast` Model at 37×37 CENTER (0,0) with `SetModelScale(1.48)` and the overlay at 71.53, the two tests that pin them reading the live panes, and deleting that file is the exact reference (36×36 at CENTER (1,1), 1.22, overlay 60); `assets/ui` is nine files (2014) - a button's shown state texture is latched on the transition, not resolved at paint (B369): `ReputationDetailAtWarCheckBox` has a `<NormalTexture>` and no `<DisabledTexture>`, and once `ReputationFrame_Update` `Disable()`d it ours drew nothing — `ButtonState` resolved the shown texture as a pure function of (enabled, pushed, held+hovered); the client's `SetState` `0x779790` gates both its hide-old and show-new steps on the NEW state's slot being non-null, with no Normal fallback anywhere in the function, and the ctor `0x7786a0` ends in `SetState(NORMAL)`, so every button reaches its first `Disable()` (`0x77ffd0`) already wearing its normal art and keeps it; `ButtonState` now carries the client's two words, `shown` (`+0x4c4`) and `state` (`+0x328`), written only by `set_state` and the `0x778fd0` setter family's conditional push, with transitions applied where the client applies them — `Enable`/`Disable`/`SetButtonState` and the four mouse edges — and the old `pushed.or(normal)` special case was this rule seen from one side; the stock corpus has 70 such declarations, so empty spellbook slots wear their `UI-Quickslot2` ring again, which 0227 had removed on a premise the shipped Lua falsifies in one line (`SpellButton_UpdateButton` calls `Disable()` at runtime); and `Disable()` switches off the whole HIGHLIGHT draw layer — `0x779160` follows `SetState` with `push 4; call 0x76a730`, the per-layer enable on the same `[frame+0x198]` array `Enable/DisableDrawLayer` writes — so a `<Layer level="HIGHLIGHT">` region no longer draws over a disabled button and the `enabled &&` term on the HighlightTexture alone is gone; the reputation tests' header stops claiming the page and the watch bar were ours (2011) - the world's mouse buttons are latched, not read raw (B364): right-clicking a Who-list row swung the camera round to behind the character — ~180° over nine seconds on a body that never turned — because the click was the UI's but the camera's input command word (`[InputControl+0x4]`) built its two mouse bits straight off `ButtonInput` with no pointer-over-UI term, `RIGHT_MOUSE` alone classifies as `Turn`, and Smart's Turn row is `(0.0, 1.0)`, so the return armed on the press edge and ran to completion; 1.12 never reads the mouse for any of this — it reads two bindings, `TurnOrAction` and `CameraOrSelectOrMove`, and a press a UI frame captured dispatches neither — so `camera::WorldMouse` latches each primary at the press and holds it to that button's own release, written in its own system ordered ahead of every reader (latched rather than re-tested, because a level test would hand a button back to the UI mid-drag the moment a frame appeared under the locked cursor, and an edge is what arms a return); five readers move onto it — the follow word's mouse bits, the both-button run, `/follow`'s both-button cancel, the look session's engage, chord cancel and other-primary tests, and the both-button → single-button handoff — and `control` drops its `PointerOverUi` and `&Camera`, the viewport-vs-UI question no longer being its to ask - the clutter onset is the cutout, and it gets the reference's own dial: the ramp runs 52.64 → 69.86 yd but the draw alpha-tests `texel.a × ramp` against `detailDoodadAlpha` = 128/255 with the ramp capped at 252/255, so nothing survives past 61.11 yd — grass appears there already at 50.2 % opacity with 8.5 yd left to reach full, and the last third of the ramp is spent where nothing is drawn, which is exactly the "started before it became visible from another gate" the director saw; `detailDoodadAlpha` is a console command in the reference (`0x6739a0`, registered through the command table `0x63f9e0`, not `CVar::Register` `0x63db90`, so it never persists), and we had it only as the boot-time `WOW_CLUTTER_ALPHA`, which cannot be A/B'd against a running client — `/console detailDoodadAlpha <0-255>` now sets it live, bare reports, and out of range is rejected rather than clamped (`0x6739b9: cmp eax,0xff; jbe`), classified in the console drain of 2008's `ConsoleExec` seam so it never reaches the CVar store, the bubble re-cut on a change because the ref is baked into the material; at 128 grass appears at 61.11 yd at half opacity, at 8 the onset walks out to ~69.8 yd and fades in from nothing; a late-build tripwire in the streamer — a warning whenever a chunk is built whose box is already inside the fade horizon, naming whether the distance gate or the per-frame cap was the cause — fired at once on the second: the build budget was spent in query order, so a chunk 90 yd out where the ramp is already zero took a slot ahead of one at 48 yd in plain view; candidates are sorted by distance now, and a 30 s Elwynn run reports one late-build frame, the cold first, then silence (2012) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-06 19:34:43 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5.1	73ead4e4d2	grass fades on a plane, model panes render, and the FPS journal ships ... - the grass fade is a plane across the view, not a ring around the player: `0x6b2b80` texgens the camera-space position through `T(0,0,−52.5)·Ry(π/2)·S(1/17.5)`, so the fade coordinate is view-space depth, `u = (z_eye − 52.5)/17.5` — we measured `distance(eye, fragment)`, a sphere, which meets the ground as a circle centred on the player that slides as they walk and bites a piece out of every tuft it crosses, and that was the hard border; the ramp is `0x6b2320`'s quantised 64×8 table, `alpha = 4·(63 − col)`, read bilinearly as `(254 − 256·u)/255` and capped at `252/255` — plateau to 52.64 yd, zero at 69.86 yd, near grass 98.8 % opaque and never 100 — where we had a clean 1 → 0 line; the product `tex0.a × ramp` is what the 128/255 `detailDoodadAlpha` cutout tests (both stages MODULATE, `[0xc7b2fc]`, confirmed verbatim in all four apitrace captures), so the tuft eroding out at 61.11 yd is the reference's own behaviour and the "fix" that would have removed it never landed; the pass owns its render state — blend mode 2, ALPHAREF 128, cull off, depth-write on, the per-slot draw `0x6b2d60` binding nothing but the texture — where we passed the batch's authored blend and cull through, and the `clutter_state` probe counted the cost: of 322 detail batches, 2 author Opaque (no cutout, their margin drawn as a solid card) and 5 single-sided; the build gate measures the chunk's box against the frustum corner ray derived from the live projection (≈1.31× at 16:9, ≈1.45× at 21:9), not its centre plus a 24 yd margin that popped whole chunks in on relief (2004) - a `<Model>` widget's animation state is Lua-observable and lives in the engine: a private scene clock its own `OnUpdate` advances by `trunc(elapsed·1000)` ms on visible frames only (`0x76d7f0`), an arm with an anchor the sampler re-reads every frame (`0x7121a0`), `OnUpdateModel` at the top of every paint (`0x76d1a0`) and `OnAnimFinished` from the completion callback (`0x76cdc0`); the file's sequences and bounds are facts the host hands over, `SetModel` seeds Stand now or when they land (`0x70ebd0`) with a queued arm replaying after the seed, and the XML `scale=` on a model pane is the model's scale (`CSimpleModel::LoadXML` `0x76cac0`), which the loader had never read (2007); and the pane renders its M2 — every visible pane with a file gets a cell of one render-target atlas at its device size through one orthographic camera, the root at `1280·modelScale·layoutScale` FrameXML units per model unit, the tile's `AnimationPlayer` paused and seeked to the engine's play head, the light black, particles in their own unit (`768·√(a²+1)` per model unit, neither scale), composited as one premultiplied quad at the callback rank; two corrections off the bytes: `OnUpdateModel` fires only with a model installed (`[widget+0x318] ≠ 0`) and `OnAnimFinished` fires once per arm for a looping sequence too (`0x719370`); the loader now applies a `<Model>`'s `file=` at all, which every XML-declared pane had lacked; retired: the minimap ping's byte-measured sprite, since `MiniMapPing` and `WorldMapPing` draw their own file on the pane's clock (2013) - the stance feed fires `UPDATE_SHAPESHIFT_FORMS` only for a list change: the reference fires it at `0x4b28ff`/`0x4b2e43` from learn, unlearn and rank-replace alone, while ours fired on any change of the pushed view, and every fire runs the stock `ShapeshiftBar_Update`, which shows `ShapeshiftBarMiddle` unconditionally past two forms and `Show()`s an already-shown frame — no `OnShow`, no manage pass — so a stance switch or the category-47 cooldown arming and expiring left the middle strip drawn alone over a raised bottom-left bar; castability now rides `SPELL_UPDATE_USABLE` (`0x4b31c0`), active/texture/cooldown are pushed silently and repainted on `PLAYER_AURAS_CHANGED` and `SPELL_UPDATE_COOLDOWN`, the feed ordered before both handler sets so they read the fresh list (2009); and the loot-roll frame waits for its item template (B371): `GroupLootFrame_OnShow` paints once and nothing repaints it, and we fired `START_LOOT_ROLL` on the frame the packet arrived, against a snapshot whose name, texture and quality were still `None` — the reference's `0x61b310` ends in the item-template cache lookup `0x55ba30`, a hit firing the event there and a miss firing it from the arrival callback `0x61b460`, so the feed holds a fresh roll's event until the template answers, with two releases that are ours: a negative answer (a frame that never opens cannot even be passed on) and a 2 s deadline paid out of the roll's minute; `arg2` stays the wire's countdown, as `0x61b430` pushes it (2010) - the FPS journal ships to players: it had registered inside the dev-only `DevToolsPlugin` and been armed by an environment variable, so nothing we shipped could have written a row on the one GPU-bound frame in the corpus, a Steam Deck's at 94 % busy; `/console fpsJournal 1` — a CVar of our own, persisted like every CVar — opens `benilla-config/Diagnostics/fps-journal.csv` and appends one row a second, `0` closes it mid-run, and `WOW_FPS_JOURNAL=<path>` stays as the harness lever; eight GPU columns appended, `gpu_ms` then `gpu_opaque, gpu_static, gpu_transp, gpu_glow, gpu_post, gpu_ui, gpu_other`, read off bevy's `RenderDiagnosticsPlugin`, which times passes where the device offers `TIMESTAMP_QUERY_INSIDE_PASSES` (Vulkan and DX12) and leaves the cells empty on an Apple GPU, empty being the honest value; `static_gx`, the four `ffx_glow_*` passes and `ui_gamma_decode` open diagnostic spans so a city's own draw is named in the split; a fresh file opens with the adapter, backend, driver and `gpu_spans yes|no` line; and a probe's `/console` line, which skips the stock `ChatEdit_ParseText` and had landed in a parser arm that knew only `reloadUI`, now forwards to `ConsoleExec` and writes a CVar the way the typed line does (2008) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-06 19:33:58 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5.1	a9b613c85a	the gossip window stops flashing, and the chat plate fades in again ... - the gossip window stops flashing on a first-visit sub-menu: a guard's "Where is …" option answers `CMSG_GOSSIP_SELECT_OPTION` with a new `SMSG_GOSSIP_MESSAGE` on the same NPC whose text id is a first visit, and 1508's hold made the snapshot `None` while the greeting query was in flight, which the feed read as `Some → None` — `GOSSIP_CLOSED` (`HideUIPanel`) at the select, `GOSSIP_SHOW` (`ShowUIPanel`) when the text landed, the window gone for a server round trip, once per text id because the record cache serves every later visit; the reference's `0x4e2010` on a cache miss sets its select latch (`[0xbbb670] = 1`) and returns with no greeting write and no event, `0x4e1fa0` closes only on a zero guid, and `SelectGossipOption` (`0x4e2320`) is refused while the latch holds — so `GossipState::text_pending` names that latch, `feed_gossip` returns before touching the VM while it holds, both drains refuse on it, the NPC name query is asked ahead of the gate so a first visit's name rides beside its text query, and the landing repaints in place (1994); and the ready check is read off the bytes: `0x4ba40e` stores the constant 0 for any guid-matched answer, the wire byte only gates the `RAID_MEMBER_NOT_READY` print ("%s is not ready") on a 0, `ConfirmReadyCheck` sends one byte, 1 or 0, only while the deadline is armed and unexpired, `DoReadyCheck` sends an empty body, the summary lists only members who never answered, and the early close fires iff no member is both pending AND online (`[entry+0x18]` bit 0) — an offline member who never answered no longer holds the check open and is still listed as AFK when it closes; the `SMSG_GROUP_LIST` leg's close predicate (`0x4ba5f0`) keeps 1989's reading, with no online term (1997) - the chat menu's rows hug their left edge: a `UIMenuButtonTemplate` row has no `<ButtonText>` — `UIMenu_AddButton` labels it with `SetText` — and the only thing placing the label is `<NormalFont inherits="GameFontNormal" justifyH="LEFT"/>`; the reference's lazy creator (`SetText 0x778dc0`) hands the fresh string to the adopter `0x778d20`, which anchors an unanchored label by the BUTTON's normal embedded font's justify word (`[button+0x390]`: LEFT→LEFT / RIGHT→RIGHT / else CENTER) and links it to that font, where ours anchored by the string's own ctor-default word (CENTER) and the loader wrote the justify onto a force-created label after the anchor was already decided — so every row sat centred in its fixed 104-wide slot and "Macro" ran into "/macro" (1.12's `UIMenu` does not auto-size; `UIMenu_AutoSize` is a later client's); `ButtonState` now carries each state font's own justify, one adopter (`button::adopt_label`) is the tail of both `SetText`'s lazy creation and `SetFontString`, the loader never touches the label, and paint follows the current instance's justify behind the severance mask like every other axis (1996); and the chat plate's hover fade survives a quick exit and re-entry: the stock `FCF_OnUpdate` queues the tabs' fade-out with `FCF_ChatTabFadeFinished` as its finished callback, which nils `chatFrame.oldAlpha` unconditionally 0.15 s later — re-enter inside `CHAT_FRAME_FADE_TIME` and it lands under a live hover, the plate arm's gate never passes again, no later leave clears `hover`, the hover-start re-read never runs, and only `FCF_SetWindowAlpha` (the tab menu's opacity slider) reseats it, which was every clue in the report; the flick from the text to a scroll button and back is the gesture, so an existing window looked broken from a session's first hover; the repair is the smallest guard at the one line — the finished callback leaves `oldAlpha` alone while `hover` is set — installed from Rust after the manifest loads (`manifest::install_chat_plate_guard`), never written into the stock file, and named as a deviation from the reference's own Lua (1998) - a layer drains its quads, then its text, then its model scenes: `ZKey`'s one font-string bit becomes a two-bit batch rank (Quad, Text, Callback) — the client's layer batch (ctor `0x772e80`) carries its quads at `+0x10`, its `CGxStringBatch` at `+0x18` and a `RENDERCALLBACKNODE` list at `+0x1c`, `0x76fb00` drains them in that order, and `0x76d160` registers a `Model` frame's scene for the ARTWORK batch only — so a `ModelPane` quad takes `ZKey::callback(Artwork)`, after every texture AND every font string of its (strata, level, layer) whatever their link stamps and before anything in the next layer, closing the residual 1992 named on the world map (the arrow is linked first under `WorldMapFrame`, the area label and the overlays later); two scenes in one bucket keep registration order, and the link stamp gives up one bit (19 → 18), which the arena's renumbering at the cap makes unobservable (1995); and the two full-screen vignettes are dead code in 5875: the string `PlayerStatus_OnUpdate` occurs zero times in `WoW.exe`, the per-frame pump runs a frame's OnUpdate by registry reference (`0x70518c lua_rawgeti`, `0x705199 lua_pcall`), the whole `lua_pcall` census has exactly two by-name calls from C, and the only `UIFrameFlash` sites for `LowHealthFrame` and `OutOfControlFrame` in the chain are inside that uncalled function, while the `PLAYER_CONTROL_LOST` arm only sets `UIParent.isOutOfControl` — so 1988's "losing control flashes the vignette" is withdrawn, the two `.blp`s ship and are never loaded, nothing in code changes, and the manifest's note on the two frames says why no driver exists (1999) - a tiled UI sprite wraps only the axis whose mapping runs past the texture: at four forms `ShapeshiftBar_Update` maps the stance shelf's middle strip `SetTexCoord(0, numForms-2, 0, 1)` — tiling along u, spanning exactly `[0, 1]` in v — and the repeat-sampled image it was served from wrapped BOTH axes, so bilinear at the strip's top pixel row reached `v < 0` and wrapped to the texture's last row, opaque grey on the 32×32 `ShapeshiftBarMiddle.blp` whose rows 0–7 are transparent: a one-device-px hairline along the strip's top edge over the world, reading 0.81–0.84× its neighbours' luma against 1.00 over the clamp-sampled caps (predicted 75 over a world of 100, measured 74–77); 1608's `uv_clamp_window` skipped an axis spanning the whole texture because "the sampler's own clamp already is this", true for the plain sprite and false for the tiled one; `tiling_axes` now decides the wrap per axis with the same tolerance, `WorldAssets::sprite_texture_wrapped` bakes `Repeat` where asked and `ClampToEdge` elsewhere, cached by (path, u, v), and the backdrop pieces and the chat bubble's edge keep both axes on; `WOW_DEMO_BOTTOM_BARS=0` leaves the action-bar demo's bottom bars down, the only state the shelf draws in (2000); the duplicate-placement census rides the probe line (`orphan_parts=`, `tiles=`) and the inspector card (parts alive, parts drawn this frame, each glow card's live world scale): a placed doodad or WMO part is spawned by exactly one placement, so a part alive outside every placement's entity list outlived a respawn, with the retained pass's fader exiles named as the one population legitimately outside the registry Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-06 19:31:38 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5.1	e800974806	still frames skip settled work, and a guild can design its tabard ... - on a still frame the world stops redoing settled work — each cut an exact gate, measured with the process pinned to the efficiency cores, where the main thread IS the frame: point lookups go through the water index, a terrain column tests its cell's four fan triangles, not the chunk's 256 (−1.3 ms), the flare march resolves its tile once, the static-world publish and light blob write only on change, billboards, emitter gates (off the new-portal edge), doodad-anim verdicts, the visibility walk, the unit publisher (its filter a named type), a rampless unit's alpha and the stable feed skip when nothing moved, the rig evaluator reuses its scratch, dormant emitters skip their step, child wiring visits pending emitters only, the shade map persists, and the terrain streamer skips its walk once settled; alone parked 25.4 → 21.6–22.8 ms of main thread, 32 → 36–38 fps there with nothing on screen (1979, 1982) - the UI tick got the same treatment: a solo run's colour rides the material, not the mesh — the glow pulse's one `Assets<Mesh>` write a frame had armed bevy's asset-changed probes over ~44 k `Mesh3d` rows (−1.0 ms); script object ids index a dense map instead of a hash, where every scripted method call starts (−0.7 ms); the draw list is fingerprint-cached, walked every frame and sorted only when it changed (the list a named type); and the instrument that made the gates count at all: the first battery read flat until the probe printed how many frames each gate input had read as changed — `noisy=[cam:0,dbg:299,view:0,win:0,claim:0]` — one dev system took `&mut` on `DebugState` every frame to test a flag, so bevy marked it changed on 299 of 300 frames and silently disarmed every gate reading `debug.is_changed()`; it reads the flag first now, and the counters stay on the probe line (1982) - two of the new gates were wrong the day they landed and are fixed in the same snapshot: the streamer's settled skip engaged the frame `complete` flipped, with the retained pass still baking the new cells, and froze the undrawn count `presentable()` reads above zero — the loading screen stayed up for good after a `.tele`; it now waits for a paced, presentable, complete world and keeps that count fresh; and the still-frame gates read the camera's `GlobalTransform`, which moves only after propagation — which runs after them — so a teleport frame carried every host's pre-snap verdict across the snap (a lamppost glow due to park kept its clock, over-bright after the `.tele`); the gates read the seat's own `Transform` write too (1982) - a guild master can design the guild's tabard: the reference's own `TabardFrame.xml` joins the manifest (benilla never had the window), opened only from the wire — the click ladder's TabardDesigner arm now sends `MSG_TABARDVENDOR_ACTIVATE` and the Battlemaster arm its own hello (1861's two deviations retire); the `TabardModel` method table runs over five ints bounded by the `.rdata` table `{170, 17, 6, 17, 51}`, the design previews on the player's own body so the pane and the world show one look, and `Save` runs the fourteen pre-flight checks in the reference's order; the world frame is the reference's own `WorldFrame.xml` too — the framerate readout is live on CTRL-R — and the carve settled its kind: a `Frame` to Lua, a one-shot type, the sole tenant of stratum WORLD, and not "over the UI" when hovered, so world clicks and camera look stay live while its scripts fire (1977, 1983, 1984) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-04 21:00:42 +07:00

SamandClaude Fable 5.1	f4951470a3	coins ride the cursor, and the trade window and combat text go stock ... - coins ride the cursor: `MoneyFrame.lua`/`.xml` load off the player's chain, and the stock kit reads the cursor's coins at load, so the money cursor — payload mode 2, the copper at `[0xb4e2f0]` — is the engine's: `PickupPlayerMoney` puts coins on the cursor and the purse is never debited, and `CoinPickupFrame.xml`, the shift-click coin dialog nothing of ours had ever answered, joins; wow-re's round then set the law: the pickup raises on a non-number and refuses silently on zero, lost control and more than the purse; `AddTradeMoney` folds the coins into the offer as an absolute `CMSG_SET_TRADE_GOLD` gated on the purse; the send-mail setters and `GetCoinIcon` answer as the bytes do; the coinage-change reflex trims an offer the purse no longer covers; and the four send-mail pickup/drop verbs the stock table names do not exist in 5875, so they are not built (1962, 1965) - the trade window is the reference's own file: `TradeFrame.xml` + `TradeFrame.lua` off the chain, ours deleted; `GameTooltip:SetTradePlayerItem`/`SetTradeTargetItem` (`0x5341e0`/`0x534410`) render the slot's item the way the loot slot's is, and `TRADE_PLAYER_ITEM_CHANGED`/`TRADE_TARGET_ITEM_CHANGED` — which the stock file repaints one slot on, and nothing had fired — fire per changed slot beside `TRADE_UPDATE`; the stock file brings the chain's own `MoneyInputFrame`, a TARGET_TRADE `SmallMoneyFrame`, `ItemButtonTemplate` slots and the enchant slot's own wording — "Item not yet modified" where ours had read "Will Not Be Traded"; the wire's enchant id is not carried into the slot yet, so the tooltip shows the item without its enchant (1966) - the dialogs' verbs, as the bytes define them: nine of the ten stock `StaticPopup.lua` bindings 1960 had left named are built off wow-re's round with their packets, events and UIParent arms — the bare trade pair, `ForceLogout`, the instance-boot timer (whole seconds), the area spirit healer's accept/cancel/time, `AcceptBattlefieldPort` out of a three-slot queue `SMSG_BATTLEFIELD_STATUS` fills, `CancelMeetingStoneRequest`, and the pet trainer's pair as the talent wipe's twin, latch for latch — `SMSG_PET_UNLEARN_CONFIRM` latches and asks, `ConfirmPetUnlearn` sends behind the money gate, `CheckPetUntrainerDist` reads the leash; not built, named: the healer's proximity scan (`0x4923b0`: 20 yd to acquire, 22 to retain), so no healer is cached yet, and `ReplaceTradeEnchant`, which rides trade-slot enchant targeting this engine does not build (1963) - the scrolling combat text is the reference's own `Blizzard_CombatText`, LoadOnDemand off the chain: our transcription is deleted, and the addon loads through `UIParentLoadAddOn` at the reference's own sites; the family's fourteen defaults move to the options file where the reference keeps them, because a LoadOnDemand addon cannot define the options that decide whether it loads (1964); and the Looking-for-Group pair is what the bytes define, correcting 1959's flag: `SetLookingForGroup` takes three (type, entry) pairs and a comment, packs each slot as `(type << 24) & entry` — an AND (`0x4e9713`), so every admissible input stores zero — and sends `CMSG_SET_LOOKING_FOR_GROUP` only when the commit changed something; `GetLookingForGroup` answers three nilable slot names then the comment, never 1|nil; and the stock 1.12.1 UI never calls either — both call sites sit in an XML comment (1961) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-04 20:58:15 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5.1	2f7cfcabf5	the action bars are the reference's own, and a gift can be wrapped ... - the action-bar cluster is the reference's own: `MainMenuBar.xml`, `ActionBarFrame.xml`, `MultiActionBars.xml` and `BonusActionBarFrame.xml` run off the player's own chain, and our `ActionBar.xml` (2047 lines), `MultiBars.xml` and `StanceBar.xml` are deleted — three, since the stock bonus-bar file declares the shapeshift bar too; one engine verb, `ChangeActionBarPage`, fires `ACTIONBAR_PAGE_CHANGED` and nothing else; one load blocker: stock `MultiActionBars.lua` writes the options window's table from its OnLoad, the reference's own load-order hack, so our options window moves to the reference's toc slot; and ten things the reference does that ours did not: an empty button is HIDDEN while showgrid is 0, the bonus overlay sits one pixel right of the main buttons, every slide takes one frame more than its time, and `ActionButton_ShowGrid` ghosts EVERY ring, occupied included (1938) - a gift can be wrapped: right-clicking wrapping paper fell through to plain use and sent `CMSG_USE_ITEM`, so nothing happened — you could receive a gift and never give one; the wrap is a displayed-cursor MODE plus a stashed slot, never a payload, so `CursorHasItem()` stays false and every stock gate on it stays shut: right-click arms it, a left-click on a bag slot sends `CMSG_WRAP_ITEM`, and the client applies no eligibility test — the server's `ERR_CANT_WRAP_*` reasons are the error line (1934); a duration-limited item counts down: `SMSG_ITEM_TIME_UPDATE` parks a deadline and the tooltip's `ITEM_DURATION` line runs the enchant countdown's bucket ladder, so "Duration: 1 days" is what the reference renders; an update for an item we do not hold is DROPPED, no queue (1933); and a renamed crowd-control refusal names its mechanic — "Can't do that while stunned" — off `SpellMechanic.dbc` (1943) - a creature paths on a boat: `SMSG_MONSTER_MOVE_TRANSPORT` carries the transport's guid and deck-local coordinates, and is the attach/detach edge; a deck sample lands on the rider or nowhere, never as a world write a few yards from the map origin; and "there is no terrain under a boat" turned out wrong: the ground probe admits GameObject meshes — a boat's `.wmo` is a GameObject, so the probe hits the deck (1936); `MSG_MOVE_TIME_SKIPPED` is read, not dropped — the reference adds the lag to the observed unit's last-wire stamp, so dropping it scheduled their next packet `lag` ms late, a hitch for every player who stalled zoning in near us; and our own settle hold reports once (1935); and the tradeskill tool order was backwards — focus FIRST, so every two-tool recipe had read "Blacksmith Hammer, Anvil" for the reference's "Anvil, Blacksmith Hammer"; the focus's `hasTool` is 1.0 in the reference too (1942) - the crowd's second sitting, instruments first: the probe line carries the tail — cpu p95/p99 and the six worst frames — because a mean under budget hides the one frame in twenty over it (raid legs railed at 16.67 with p95 at 18–20 ms) and whether that frame was work or a wait is the first question about a stutter, and the visible meshes are counted by lane; then two cuts — a terrain tile furnishes as 4×4 cells of 4×4 chunks, one mesh, one entity, one draw per 133-yd cell instead of per 33-yd chunk (a city horizon is over a thousand chunks a frame, and a cell changes nothing a pixel can see; Stormwind 10.55 → 10.32 `cpu_ms`), and an authored point light is our own `WorldPointLight`, not Bevy's `PointLight`, which was only a data carrier while Bevy ran its whole light lane over every lamp, ~2 % of the alone frame; the sitting's record is 1945, and the code says so (1945) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-04 20:54:27 +07:00

SamandClaude Fable 5.1	f01a964e6e	druids get their relic slot, and the loot window is the reference's own ... - `UnitHasRelicSlot` is real in 1.12 and benilla had no binding for it: `0x519e50` reads `ChrClasses.dbc` field 16 — set for Paladin, Shaman and Druid in `patch.MPQ`'s 17-column copy (the base `dbc.MPQ` copy has 16 columns and no such field, which is how the "always false in vanilla" belief survived twice in decisions and seven times in code) — and stock `PaperDollFrame.lua` calls it unconditionally, so the character sheet would have raised for EVERY class; a druid, paladin or shaman's sheet now hides the ammo slot, shows the relic plate where the bow was, tooltips "Relic", and reports ranged Attack/Damage/Power as N/A, all four branches transcribed from the reference - the loot window is the reference's own `LootFrame.xml`: `LootButton` is built as a real widget type rather than aliased (a Button plus one slot dword and one overridden OnClick — right-click loots exactly like left, no shift/ctrl/alt takes, a row whose Lua handler errored still loots, a fast double-click takes two slots), `LOOT_SLOT_CLEARED` fires per row again because the stock file hangs hide-in-place AND the emptied-page auto-advance off it, `EditBox:Insert(nil)` is a no-op as `lua_tostring` makes it, and an alias `GameTooltip.xml` had quietly become a reader of would have turned every item tooltip white, silently, had it just gone nil - the vendor cursor: `PickupMerchantItem` is two verbs behind one name, decided by what the cursor holds and never by the caller — a held bag item SELLS (index ignored, no merchant-open gate), otherwise the vendor row is grabbed as cursor mode 5, which is invisible to `CursorHasItem` (modes 1 and 9 only) so all thirteen stock gates stay closed while it is held; the drop is the buy, `CMSG_BUY_ITEM_IN_SLOT`, count 1, into a bag or an equipment slot, and every refusal is silent and clears the cursor; the four `Model_*` rotation handlers land in UIParent where the reference keeps them - the gap report reads `:Method(` sites now — it found `SetMerchantCompareItem`, which would have raised on the first vendor-row hover with every check green, and `LootButton:SetSlot`, and 28 "free" windows became 25; the shared coin kit moved out of the merchant window into `MoneyFrame.xml` so the eight windows that draw coins through it can reach it without loading a vendor Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-09-02 17:00:40 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5	dbf9d8057b	a full realm is a queue to wait in, and the login dialog is centred ... - a full realm answers with `AUTH_WAIT_QUEUE`, and it used to be read as a refusal; the grammar is length-branching exactly as the reference's handler has it, so both mangos body shapes parse; the estimate is the reference's own 8-sample ring — divide before multiply, signed, no timer — whose displayed figure climbs while the queue is silent, pinned by a test so nobody "fixes" it; the dialog is the ordinary status dialog relabelled `CHANGE_REALM` (which cancels back to the login screen: no realm list exists yet), and cancelling actually leaves the queue — the IO thread used to keep its place and walk on into character select on admission - the stable master, corrected against the binary: a stabled-pet drag rides the shared cursor at payload mode 10 (the mode census had that row's label wrong), a plain click always returns 1 and a drop always nil, the summoned pet dropped on an occupied stable slot swaps (STABLE was refused whenever both bought slots were full, silently), an unpurchased slot takes nothing, the stabled→summoned fork reads the live pet guid not the row, the client itself sends `MSG_LIST_STABLED_PETS` on the interact leg, `PET_STABLE_SHOW` fires on every list, the selection is a petNumber and every list clears it, and result codes 2–7 do nothing at all - the login dialog's text is centred (a FontString with no `justifyH` is CENTER, and `GlueDialogText` has none), the fifteen-year-dead "see www.worldofwarcraft.com" clauses are cut at the clause, the Login click sound is unconditional (the reference plays `gsLogin` before it checks the boxes), dialog buttons play `gsTitleOptionOK`, the realmlist button's `gsClick` never existed and is `gsLoginNewAccount`, and focusing a login box selects it — a stated divergence Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-29 17:21:50 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5	45f001bbc5	the hover tax is pinned and cut, and a spell-less macro is a button ... - a tooltip change costs ~1.3 ms — five whole-interface recomputes, each working as designed: the quad re-convert at 474 µs, the Lua tick at 287, the layout resolve at 200, bevy's `Assets<Mesh>` tax at ~270 and the mesh rebuild at 146 — pinned with new hover probes (a jitter dial, a `WOW_PROBE_HOVER_DUTY` duty cycle so run drift cancels, an `AssetChanged` tax meter), and the layout preamble's two whole-roster scans become lists maintained at the writer (52–83 µs → 1–11) - the splice compared this frame's entries against last frame's by index, so one inserted highlight shifted the 160 entries behind it and read as "everything changed"; it now aligns on `z` — an identity, not a position — and a `Text` entry that writes only quads became spliceable, so a tooltip change re-converts 22 entries instead of 520 (`convert` +439 µs → +107), with `WOW_UI_SPLICE_VERIFY` running the full conversion behind every spliced frame: 0 mismatches over 1,078 - a spell-less macro is a usable action button, not the 0.4 grey — the reference's usable compute has a dedicated leg answering usable for the bound-spell zero, cross-checked at the bytes in the reference's disassembly — and the button's Name line is written unconditionally from `GetActionText` as the reference does, so the macro's name sits under its icon and a `/cast` of a spell the character does not know now greys, which is also 1.12's behaviour (B340) - a capture bounds its run in wall-clock seconds, because a frame cap is no cap at the ~1 fps a starved `nextDrawable` leaves — 1800 frames is thirty minutes there — and the teardown backstop runs on every run as a liveness guarantee, carrying the exit code the run asked for; the Multisampling row reads Off / 2x / 4x, since "1x" contradicts the no-multisampling byte both of the reference's enumerators normalise to and the bit-depth prefix was identical on every row Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-27 15:13:58 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5	a60f723ad4	borderless fullscreen ships, and the 4x MSAA nobody chose is off ... - the display mode is borderless fullscreen by default, and there is no exclusive mode at all — winit ignores exclusive on Wayland, X11's path cannot restore the desktop after a crash, macOS has none, and WoW itself dropped it in 8.0.1; 1.12's `gxWindow` row keeps its name, polarity and default with "0" redefined as borderless, read before the window exists so it is born in the player's mode (a window that does not fill gamescope's nested output is a documented input break, and the recorded workaround is "set the game to fullscreen"), `gxResolution` remembers the windowed size, and the Graphics page grows 1.12's own Windowed Mode checkbox - the UI camera says `Msaa::Off` out loud, because silence there meant Bevy's default 4×: the world arrives on this camera as an already-resolved quad and everything it draws itself is axis-aligned rects, so four samples bought a 4× colour target, a 4× depth texture nothing ever writes, 4× the fill on every quad and a resolve — for a measured difference of MAE ≤ 0.024, all of it quad borders now drawn at their authored crispness, which is also the reference's hard-edged 8-bit direction - `gxMultisample` is a real player setting, and it ships off — the reference's own default: the reference registers no literal, it formats field 21 of the `VideoHardware.dbc` row the GPU matched, a 193-row table that holds nothing above 2 anywhere and whose every 2004-era id misses a modern card, so the fallback rows answer and all of them hold 1; the setting persists, all three world-lane cameras read it on the reference's [1,16] scale rounded down the way its own retry loop steps, and `$WOW_MSAA` survives session-only - two instruments for the tooltip hunt: `rebuild_ui_mesh` — which sorts, clips and re-splits every quad in the interface on any dirty frame — gets a meter carrying total/sort/split/write beside the script phases whose flat reading had stood as an alibi, and `WOW_PROBE_HOVER` sweeps the real cursor across named frames through the real pointer path, pressing nothing: the hover recorder records what a hand does, and this supplies the hand Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-27 15:12:37 +07:00

SamandClaude Fable 5	10874da37f	clicks find their target, the booth eases off, and the map's lines go ... - the world camera's pick regression: its off-screen render target carried `scale_factor: 1.0`, so on a Retina display the camera reported physical pixels as logical and a centred cursor cast its pick ray into the upper-left quadrant — unit and GameObject picks, the occlusion ray, chat bubbles and `world_to_viewport` all broke at once; the target now carries the window's real scale factor, re-stamped when dragging between displays changes it mid-session — and the perf pill's overlap dodge had the same disease in miniature (`GetBottom()` answers in WoW UI units, the pill lays out in window px), so it now answers a fraction of the screen and works at any window height - `boothHalfRate` defaults back to half-rate: a body pane's off-screen booth pass rendered every frame reads +7.6 ms of GPU at 4K (~1.6 ms at 1600×900), on exactly the weak GPUs that felt the last snapshot — the doll's item effects keep full speed, since they key on the pacing regime rather than the camera's active bit, so only the 30 fps animation cadence returns, and full-rate stays one `SetCVar` away - a spell cast by a GameObject arrives with caster guid 0 — vmangos writes the caster slot from a `Unit*` its GameObject constructor never sets — and the whole visual body was dropped at the guid lookup; the decode now reads an empty caster slot as the packet's first guid, which with no cast item IS the caster, so the Lightwell's click plays its impact kit (sound 3155 and the head flash) instead of only the aura glow that hid the miss, and the object stops being mislabelled a cast item - the world map's black hairlines: a `SetTexCoord` crop is not a texture, and a POI icon magnified to 2.08 px per texel sampled half a texel past its crop into the neighbouring atlas cell — an opaque black row bleeding over a cell that is fully transparent (the empty cell is the reference's own zone-level substitution); `UiQuad::uv_clamp` now insets the sampling window half a texel per axis, so a crop renders as if its sub-rect were its own clamped texture, and `WOW_UI_PICK=x,y` names every quad under a pixel — it found this one in a single run Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-27 15:09:56 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5	f8421c1545	the colour wheel draws, chat windows move, and the minimap ping returns ... - the colour picker can pick a colour: the hue disc and the value strip are engine-generated pixels (no BLP in the chain is a wheel), reproduced from the reference's own lattice — a hard-cut circle at a literal V = 1.0, the brightness marker moving over a disc that never dims - chat windows move and resize once unlocked (Lock/Unlock Window on the tab menu; the reference's own 296×75 to 608×400 bounds), the border textures doubling as the grips, and the placement is remembered per character in benilla-config/layout; both windows ship locked, as 1.12's reset leaves them - the minimap ping is back and pinned: one world point the engine draws, the click converted in the right unit (the old path was ~27% off at 1080p), and no 10-yard auto-clear — that was the gossip marker's rule, and walking to your own ping was deleting it - the Lightwell can be clicked: a billboard card is a world root with no parent hop, so the hit resolved to nothing and the whole shaft published a null mouseover; casting a hunter shot chains Auto Shot through `Spell.dbc`'s modalNextSpell column (the mechanism nobody had read — the next snapshot carries the seam that makes it fire in play); tradeskill list rows stop tooltipping (that hover was ours, not Blizzard's), and OnMouseUp goes to the frame that took the press Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-25 18:49:16 +07:00
SamandClaude Fable 5	ab235bad6e	the target-of-target frame, and talents can be unlearned again ... - the target-of-target frame and its option: 1.12's frame with its five display modes, fed one hop off the selected unit's own target field through the same read `/assist` runs, in four feeds (snapshot and transitions, the debuff buttons, the portrait booth, TargetUnit's click arm); ships off, as 1.12 does, on its own pair of saved globals - talents can be unlearned again: the trainer's `MSG_TALENT_WIPE_CONFIRM` had no handler since the wipe flow was deferred, so the gossip line closed the menu and did nothing — the question is an NPC session (walking away retracts it), the popup shows the cost on the StaticPopup money variant, Accept answers it behind the client's own purse check - Sprint's sparkles hang in the air behind you along the trail instead of collapsing into your torso: ride-vs-trail is the emitter's own file flag 0x10, not the host class — the finding wow-re returned eighteen days ago and nobody folded; the particle dump names the two flag bits it had been mis-reporting - `/sleep` takes both movement masks (the strictest posture), correcting the day's sit gate which let you lie down on a lake bottom while `/sit` was refused; a Lua-driven selection (TargetUnit on an attackable token) starts the swing exactly as a click does, through the one select path Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-25 18:40:16 +07:00

SamandClaude Fable 5	348f55e37e	four extra action bars as options, and the bottom band gets one owner ... - the four extra action bars become per-character options, off by default, on a new Action Bars options page — the toggles ride the server's own byte (`CMSG_SET_ACTIONBAR_TOGGLES` into `PLAYER_FIELD_BYTES`), so a fresh character's zero is the default for free; turning the bottom-left bar off gives the stance bar its previously unbuilt unraised look, end-caps and 64×64 rings - bag windows stop drawing straight through a raised bottom bar: the bottom band has ONE owner — the manage pass — the bag stack joins it through a listener seam, and a guard test walks all eight raisable-bar combinations across 24 bar/tenant pairs and refuses overlap - the item-push card takes the reference's real geometry, closing the gap 0887 measured - resizable addon windows stop at their bounds instead of pinning and walking across the screen: four per-frame f32s with 0.0 the disable sentinel, the clamp on the interactive drag only with the residual rebated out of the drag delta, `<ResizeBounds>` in XML honoured — and `SetFontString`'s three raises land exactly as the bytes have them Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-21 18:12:19 +07:00
