- the character-create and main-menu backdrop runs its material animation: the clouds drift on their 20, 30 and 40 second loops, which were seeded once and never sampled (2300)
- Arathi Basin and Alterac Valley are entered and censused beside Warsong Gulch, the flag is picked up, and a match runs to its end (2296)
- the animation variation roll is one clock-seeded stream, as the reference's C runtime is, not four streams seeded 0 (2299, 2301)
- a cancelled channel never turns the bar red and a finished one closes on the bar's own clock, now pinned by tests that drive the real packet sequence (2284)
- the field watch fires one edge per moved descriptor dword, from the merge that holds both sides (2297)

- the area spirit healer works: a ghost at a battleground graveyard is picked up by the reference's 20-yard poll, the resurrect dialog shows, and the wave brings the body back (2291)
- WOW_PROBE_BG enters Warsong Gulch by the real road, battlemaster, queue, port, and censuses the match from inside: terrain, world states, the readout, the scoreboard, the graveyard (2290)
- the battlefield minimap is driven end to end by a harness: the demand load, the tiles, the overlays, the blips and the tab (2293)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- every unit, GameObject and held item runs its texture animation: air elementals, Ragnaros, the Ash'ari Crystal, Ironforge's forge lava, the Scourge rune circles and the Zul'Gurub forcefields were static (2295)
- a GameObject whose animation slots disagree gets a material of its own: the Blood of Heroes pools bubble and the Freezing Trap's glow pulses (2295)
- three sound kits with a doubled separator in their path were silent, the flight-path-discovered chime among them; the Ashbringer's lines stay silent, as they are in 1.12 (2294)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a channelled spell's bar reads "Channeling" rather than the spell's name, and stays orange: 1.12 tells a channel from a cast by its label and its drain, not by a green bar (2284)
- a shot's muzzle blast fires only when a projectile is queued, the reference's own gate, so a target-less shot shows none (2289)
- the eight hand-copied query caches, names, items, objects, page texts, quests, guilds, petitions and mail, are one generic cache, and a read that asks no longer takes the whole store exclusively (2288)
- the schedule's ambiguity ratchet counts by class, and the cast-fail argument table is closed: MIN_SKILL is the prospecting leg and cannot fire on 1.12 (2287, 2292)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a right-click on a meeting stone joins its queue: the stone's own join packet with its four refusals, and the stone you are queued at goes dark on the minimap frame (2283)
- the druid's Swipe draws its claw trail: spell effects run their authored texture scroll, each on its own cast's clock (2282)
- a gun's muzzle blast plays: the weapon model runs its own release animation, whose emitters were authored on the rifle and never had a clock (2281, 2286)
- README: battlegrounds are the one big feature left on the roadmap, now that meeting stones are in
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a cast refused for the wrong shapeshift form names it, "Must be in Cat Form", a two-form spell joined the reference's way, and the combat log reads its own buffer rather than the red line (2280, 2285)
- three refusals that never had a combat-log line, totems, reagents and equipped item class, get one; a pet's form refusal names one form (2285)
- the game's plugins are one group and the whole client builds headless in 0.12 s, so the schedule is a test subject: three one-shot consumers caught firing into the login drain are gated (2279)
- the net drain's parameters are named bundles, not nested tuples (2279)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a panic writes benilla-config/Diagnostics/crash-<time>.txt with the build id, the location, a backtrace and the last 200 log lines, and names the file as its last line, so a bug report can attach it (2266)
- every wire-count allocation hint is capped and the compressed update object reads through the cursor, so a malformed packet can no longer ask for gigabytes (2266)
- the 23 in-world run conditions are one set, the 45 probe variables one registry, the install-gated tests say when they skip, and every gate is timed (2266)
- one workspace-level lint allowance replaces 413 per-site attributes, and the decision corpus gets a lint in the gate (2266)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- your character's own name no longer goes missing on the first login of a fresh start, so KLHThreatMeter stops erroring: the four "player" verbs read the login record, as the reference does (2260, 2261, 2263)
- four pipelines that compiled live mid-play now warm under the loading screen: the model tile atlas's orthographic view, the minimap composite's quad, the glow combine pair and the indoor pool's liquid layout (2262, 2264)
- a hoverable sign seats its tooltip where its template says, at the cursor or in the corner, not by its object type: Brill's signpost still follows the cursor (2259)
- three warnings that fired when nothing was wrong are quiet, and the lane-coverage gates walk every crate instead of one (2264)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- entering the world no longer aborts on Vulkan, which is every Linux build and Windows by default: the world's draw inside the UI pass had opened a second GPU query span, and wgpu allows one at a time (2258)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a right-click on a nameplate selects and interacts again: the plate registers the right button, as the reference's does (2233)
- the verb-events table files each fire site against its function's verified extent, and four rows it had misattributed are gone (2257)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a signpost or mailbox tooltip shows with Questie loaded, and after opening the map: the cursor-seated plate carries an owner, so Questie's OnShow hook no longer hides it (2255)
- picking up a quest whose template is not cached no longer blanks the quest log or jumps the selection: the missing quest is skipped, not the pass (2256)
- the spellbook's skill-line tab flashes when a spell lands in it (2252)
- the GPU meter's resolve rides the frame's own encoder, with no submit or poll of its own: −1.8 ms on Intel's DX12 driver when armed (2254)
- the audio starvation watch no longer charges a stream's own spin-up as silence (2253)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a quest objective that carries both a creature and an item is two lines in the quest log, as the reference's four passes enumerate it: Graverobbers shows its Embalming Ichor (2249)
- the quest log's detail follows the live selection inside a frame, so a quest addon's log walk reads the right quest; Questie no longer files a chain quest under its shortest sibling (2247)
- a UI tint change is not a material change: a run's colour rides the batch's instance tag, so the PlayerFrame glow no longer re-prepares a material every frame (2245)
- the workspace lints clean on rustc 1.98: constant-size chunks become as_chunks, one slice fill, two unused globs
- WOW_HOVER_PROBE aims the pick in a headless run, and the inspect card names the tooltip's ladder stage (2248, 2250)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- learning a spell prints "You have learned a new spell/ability/recipe" in chat, and unlearning one prints its line, on the reference's own gates (2243, 2246)
- the world map's dark backdrop is back: the screen size is seeded before the interface loads, so BlackoutWorld is sized from the real window, not 1024x768 (2242)
- the trainer filter repaints again: the engine fires TRAINER_UPDATE from inside the filter verbs, as the reference does (2244)
- the zone channels, the keybinding table and the default language seed at the entry edge, before any addon asks (2241)
- WOW_UI_COST=1 counts the frame's UI material asset events and names the first hundred modified (2236)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the world is the first draw of the UI camera's main pass, not a pass before it: one render-pass boundary fewer, −0.9 ms of GPU on the Air at full render scale (2234)
- the world-map catalog seeds at the VM's birth, before any addon file runs, so Questie's Astrolabe builds its zone table instead of raising on every path (2240)
- the login's own tutorials wait for the interface, and a cross-map worldport fires PLAYER_LEAVING_WORLD, guarded by the reference's once-per-world latch (2232, 2235, 2239)
- WOW_PROBE_BGQUEUE makes "log in while queued for a battleground" reproducible (2237)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- entering the world builds its own Lua state instead of adopting the character screen's, so a login one-shot fired into the frameless glue VM is spent again against the interface (2226)
- after training, the trainer's detail pane moves on: the selection is the service's spell id, re-found by scan, and a filtered row is hidden, not removed (2231)
- a spell's miss or resist floats in spell gold, and a travelling spell's word waits for the projectile; only a white hit's miss is white (2229)
- a press that lands on a nameplate is the plate's: no freelook, no camera turn, the plate's own click slot (2233)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- right-clicking a nameplate acts again: both buttons read the press pick, as the reference picks once on the down edge and never re-picks on release (2230)
- the honor tab's Highest Rank and title name the rank: a rank title's team digit is the race, not the faction group, so a GM-flagged character keeps its rank (2227)
- a raid's party feed watches only its members' descriptors, and the empty 2D opaque pass is skipped: ~0.7 ms a frame in a crowd (2225)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- player and pet names are a world session, not a file: the reference never persists them, so a character created after a server wipe no longer wears a deleted character's name (2223)
- Martin Fury and every item whose spell targets where you stand raise the cursor and cast: the targeting word is a mask, not one bit (2218)
- the guild line prints ahead of the realm's welcome lines by declared order, as the reference's chat latch paints it (2221)
- the performance journal's CPU clocks answer on Windows, and a run with no install no longer panics on the cinematic narration (2219)
- SetInventoryItem's nameOnly argument builds the reference's compact tooltip (2224)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the "Guild Message of the Day:" line prints in chat at login: our own guild id arriving is not a guild change, and the guild feed waits for the interface it fires into (2214)
- maximizing or resizing the window after entering the world no longer crashes the client: the dismissed loading tip asks for a re-shape (2212)
- the vendor's compare plate is the worn item's full tooltip with one gray "Currently Equipped" line first, its name in its quality colour (2216)
- the login chat drain waits for the chat frame it prints into, so a realm's welcome line is never lost one login in six (2220)
- the GPU meter never resolves a query set nothing has stamped yet — the Vulkan device loss and hang the lab met (2211)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the shift-hover item compare is gone: 1.12.1 compares only from the vendor and auction rows, and the plate those seat picks its side so it never slides back over its own tooltip (2210, 2207)
- UnitIsPlusMob is implemented, off the flag bit and not the creature rank, so an addon that calls it no longer raises (2209)
- a top-level frame named $parentX with a parent= attribute is published under that parent's name, so ClassIcons loads (2208)
- a parent= that resolves to nothing leaves the frame parentless and logs it, as the reference does, instead of falling back to the enclosing frame (2213)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a looted chest fades out over two seconds on the reference's own smoothstep, from the alpha it is showing, instead of blinking away; every destroy and out-of-range exit takes the fade (2198, 2203)
- opening a chest goes through the cast ladder, so mashing right-click no longer cancels the running cast bar with "Another action is in progress" (2199)
- a held key resumes after an alt-tab: a repeat is a key we already have down, not the OS repeat bit, as the reference classifies it (2204)
- both upscaling blits are skipped: the world's combine and the UI's gamma decode write their camera's target themselves, pixel-identical, and the costliest pass on the lab's RTX is gone (2206)
- WOW_GPU_PASSES prints the journal's per-pass GPU split beside each row (2205)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- eighteen per-frame systems now write only when their inputs moved: the equipment resolve, the skills, language and bind-location feeds, quest markers, shadows, the ambience seat and the weapon trail (2197)
- a still remote mover writes no transform, so a city's idle crowd no longer re-propagates every model subtree each frame, and the WMO liquid latch no longer holds a city's visibility walk open (2197)
- the bags are walked once a frame for every reagent and item slot instead of once per slot, and fourteen per-frame environment reads become one read each (2197)
- the ffx blur chain is skipped where the combine multiplies it by zero, the audio pump compares before set_volume, and the QoS latch sits beside bevy's own exclusive system (2197)
- WOW_RES_CENSUS counts on how many frames each resource read as changed, noisiest first — the finder that named these gates (2197)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- loot rows show their Quickslot border, depress on click and light up under the cursor: the stock `<LootButton>` is parsed by the Button loader, as the reference's vtable has it (2195)
- holding W keeps you running through Enter to chat and M to close the map: a UI frame eating a key never releases a held movement binding (2196)
- food, drink, bandages and mounts grey out on the action bar in combat: an ITEM slot runs its on-use spell's usable walk, and its cooldown gate is the item-keyed on-hold record (2200, 2201)
- re-clicking the character you already have selected keeps its facing instead of snapping it square (2194)
- the shift-compare plate seats beside the tooltip and is owned by the engine, so a stale plate never rides over the next hover (2202)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the world map opens full screen again on a character that once ran Cartographer's windowed map: a saved frame position or size outlives the addon only while the frame is movable or resizable (2193)
- the layout cache gates both the write and the apply on `userPlaced AND (movable|resizable)`, the reference's four sites, where benilla had only the setter's (2193)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Questie's arrow points at the turn-in, not 100 yards off: the map selection sits on your zone from the moment you enter the world, as the reference's does, so Astrolabe reads the right sheet (2192)
- an area the map has no row for sends the selection to your continent, not the world view; the reference fails its zone lookup and its continent lookup separately
- a tooltip shown with no lines hides itself instead of drawing an empty plate at the last hover's size, as Questie's tracker did on some quests; each fresh hover restores full alpha, so a plate an addon dimmed does not stay dim
- Questie's minimap button turns the quest icons back on: a nil handed to a colour setter stores zero and carries on, as the reference does, where benilla raised and jammed Questie's event queue from login (1973)
- MonkeyDev loads without three red dialogs at login: an unknown frame type in an addon's XML is logged and skipped, as the reference does; only a script creating a frame of a bad type still raises (2191)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a creature spawning or coming into range in water no longer punches a body-shaped hole in the surface at the start of its fade-in: a model crossing its water plane draws on both sides, each half clipped at the waterline (2188)
- the same split covers your own body on login while swimming, stealth and ghost form in the water; Crystal Lake's murlocs streaming in were the scene that showed it (2188)
- helms, shoulders, weapons and hung spell kits clip at their wearer's waterline too, so the fade no longer looks wrong whenever the surface crosses the armour (2190)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the Brightness slider in the options window changes the picture and keeps its value; it was writing to no setting at all, so every reopen read 50% again (2186)
- the login, realm and character screens share one letterboxed frame, so clicking down the character roster no longer slides the backdrop and every panel over it; at 4:3 nothing changes (2187)
- Questie's world-map notes show their tooltip on hover: the note hands the tooltip a frame where an anchor name goes, which benilla refused with a script error and the reference reads as the default anchor (2176)
- with OmniCC installed, a warrior in a stance sees the countdown on action bar 1 again: raising that bar's buttons by script carried their cooldown sweep up over the count (2189)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- fourteen settings get their switch on the Options window: the Camera box from Follow Terrain and Head Bob to Water Collision and Smart Pivot, plus Attack on Assist, Auto Clear AFK, Auto Self Cast, Enhanced Tooltips, Player Guild Names and Show Target Damage (2180)
- the Graphics page gains Weather Intensity, scaling rain, snow and mist, and Brightness, applied as a final pass over the whole finished frame; GetGamma and SetGamma answer in the slider's unit (2181, 2182)
- hovering a disabled button fires no OnEnter, no OnLeave and no highlight, as the reference's does, so AtlasLoot's unset QuickLook buttons stop throwing a Lua error on every hover (2183)
- a chat window dragged, resized, recoloured or renamed just before a /reload keeps the change, and the meeting stone's minimap icon comes back after a /reload while you are still queued (2184)
- swimming at the surface, the camera stops snapping into your character every couple of seconds: the water leg of the camera trace is a bare ray, as the reference's is, so the boom stops on the plane rather than a probe radius short of it (2185)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the reference's own video options window loads hidden, so pfUI's video skin and any addon reaching for its sliders and check buttons by name finds real frames; our own options window is BenillaOptionsFrame now, and ESC still opens it (2177)
- GetScreenResolutions, GetCurrentResolution, SetScreenResolution, GetRefreshRates, GetVideoCaps, RestartGx and RestoreVideoDefaults answer off the monitor's own modes, so CT_Viewport loads clean (2177)
- three of those verbs were corrected against a second read of the binary: GetRefreshRates answers nothing on a device with no rates, GetVideoCaps always gives a number for triple buffering, and RestoreVideoDefaults writes the ten rows the verb writes (2177)
- the camera's water collision is back with both halves: the boom stops at a water surface, and a swimmer's camera keeps a constant 2/9 yd clearance over the waterline whatever the body underneath does (2179)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- addons load in the order NTFS lists a folder, case-insensitive with an underscore before the letters, the order the vanilla corpus was written against and the one that decides which addon provides a shared library (2178)
- GetNumAddOns and the index form of every AddOn verb walk a title-sorted list that hides the Blizzard addons the server says to hide, and the character-select AddOns list is in title order (2175)
- SetPoint and SetAllPoints raise the reference's own errors for a frame name that does not exist or an omitted relative frame instead of quietly anchoring to the parent, and an explicit nil means the screen root (2176)
- a tooltip owned with ANCHOR_CURSOR follows the mouse, which pfUI's tooltip, xpbar and chat modules, pfQuest's browser and TipBuddy ask for; an omitted or unknown anchor is ANCHOR_LEFT (2176)
- a $parent name handed to CreateFrame, CreateTexture or CreateFontString expands as it does in XML, so FonzAppraiser's thirty dropdowns and pfQuest's search icon get the names they asked for (2176)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a nameplate's name and level stop popping a pixel every other step as the plate slides, and the whole plate no longer jumps 19 px to the top of the screen on a rounding tie; the chat bubble takes the same fix (2172)
- creatures and other players stop sinking through the ground while the world is still streaming in, where a Stormwind patroller had been 31 yd under its street: a body our world cannot yet answer for holds the server's pose (2174)
- select and the string metatable are gone, as in 1.12's Lua 5.0: pfUI's heal prediction parses its messages with the right format, BuffCheck2's own select wins its fallback, and a method call on a string raises the reference's own error (2171)
- the camera's water collision comes back out for now: with the pivot a hair under the plane, a surface swimmer's camera snapped in and out against the waterline, so the boom ignores water again (2173)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- GetDodgeChance, GetParryChance and GetBlockChance answer the numbers the character sheet already had, so the addons that ask for them get a figure instead of a nil (2166)
- with Follow Terrain on, pressing mouse-look no longer jolts the view: the terrain lean folds into the angle you drag and comes back out on release, and smart pivot holds its bias while a server-driven turn runs (2165)
- entering water, the camera's pivot eases down to the model's own swimming height, so the eye no longer sits at a different height for the same zoom (2165)
- the camera's water collision is back as what the option actually is: with it on, the camera boom stops at a bare water surface instead of passing through it; the pivot corridor that snapped last time is not rebuilt (2170)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- pfUI's hdgraphic module runs: SetWorldDetail and GetWorldDetail are real verbs with the reference's three stops, and the near clip plane is a live setting at 0.100 yd rather than a frozen 0.111 (2163)
- nameplates stop drawing a black box on hover or click, stop jittering a frame behind a moving creature, and a unit that walks into range later gets its plate; a unit with no level wears no skull, and the wheel zooms over a plate (2168)
- the faint one-pixel box around every letter of a magnified overhead name is gone, each glyph now carrying its own transparent padding; interface text drawn at 1:1 is byte-identical (2169)
- the camera's water collision comes back out for now: its pivot corridor dropped the camera a yard in one frame at head depth, which is the snapping reported around the surface while swimming (2165)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a melee spell's tooltip says 5 yd range instead of Melee Range and grows with the reach of whatever you are auto-attacking; Heroic Strike and Bloodrage show no range line at all, as the reference does (2158)
- an item's resistances list Arcane first, and its type word comes from ItemSubClass.dbc, so every container names itself: 24 Slot Soul Bag, 8 Slot Quiver, 6 Slot Ammo Pouch (2080, 2158)
- weapon damage rounds the client's way, floor on the low bound and ceiling on the high, so Fang of the Mystics reads 38 - 86 not 39 - 86; ammo reads Adds 1.5 damage per second (2158)
- an arrow's slot line reads Projectile | Arrow and a bullet's Projectile | Bullet, the word the reference takes from ItemClass.dbc where we printed the type alone (2158)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- hovering a nameplate lights its unit and clicking one selects it, pfUI's click-through works, a drag that starts on a plate still turns the camera, and turning plates off with V clears them (2159)
- Auctioneer's XML documents open (the reference has no XML namespaces), a .toc line reaching Blizzard_AuctionUI's templates resolves for Auctioneer, BeanCounter and SpecialTalentUI, and a missing include logs rather than raising the red error dialog (2155)
- a .lua reached through <Script file=> carries the same Interface\AddOns\ chunk name as a .toc-listed one, so Ace2's debugstack split works and AtlasLoot keys its database; 26 more corpus addons load, 176 of 219 (2155)
- the floating combat numbers draw in whatever DAMAGE_TEXT_FONT holds at world entry, so MikScrollingBattleText and pfUI pick the font (2156); a dodged swing prints no line and floats no word, and happiness leech lines print (2157)
- an unknown frameStrata in XML logs and keeps the default instead of raising, so EQL3's log window loads; FrameXML_Debug is a real switch, so ImprovedErrorFrame loads (2160)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 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>
- a macro with a Lua error fails on its own and lands in the script error channel instead of aborting the UI function that ran it; RunScript names its chunk by the source text, and a bad or empty argument is a quiet no-op (2136)
- a script error or debugstack frame names its handler as Frame:OnClick instead of a whole CreateFrame sentence, an inline <Script> block is no longer mistaken for the .lua beside it, and a handler's line numbers stop reading one too high (2136)
- GetAddOnInfo and its seven siblings raise the reference's own Usage and out-of-range messages, GetAddOnInfo("2") is the second addon, and assert(a, b) answers one value, as the client's Lua 5.0 does (2139)
- frillDensity and gxApi are real settings: pfUI's hdgraphic module reads world detail through frillDensity, its system tooltip names the live render backend, and the two spellings of the ground clutter knob stay one knob (2151)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- mouse-look speed is cameraYawMoveSpeed and cameraPitchMoveSpeed, so pfUI's afkcam does what it asks and an addon driving the stock Interface Options window runs its load and Defaults walks to the end; the shipped feel does not move (2147)
- the eight combat-log range sliders are real settings, so BigWigs' Range plugin and DPSMate read and write them, and the Show Pet Melee Damage and periodic-spell settings genuinely silence what they gate (2147)
- the stock Sound Options window loads hidden beside ours for addons to find, and its three check-box settings are real: the listener sits at your character, emote voices can be muted, zone music can loop without its silence gap (2147)
- /assist with assistAttack set selects and starts swinging; /leave General survives a relog, a /join puts the channel back in its chat window's list, and SetGuildRecruitmentMode joins and leaves GuildRecruitment - City (2144)
- wipe, strsplit, strjoin, strtrim, strconcat and tostringall are gone: no 1.12 client has them, and the addons that call them are multi-client builds whose vanilla path raises on the real client too (2146)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 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)

- a slider with a value step snaps to it: a stepped drag fires once per row instead of once per pixel, a scrollbar cannot rest between two rows, and one wheel notch on the trainer list reaches the bottom (2133)
- setting a step on a live slider moves its value onto the new lattice and runs its handler, which an addon on the real client can count on (2143)
- a button pushed from script releases on the next mouse-up, so Tablet-2.0's rows stop staying pressed forever; a release off the button's rect un-presses it, and a locked state holds (2134)
- the mail body and the GM ticket box scroll as you type past their bottom, and the Use UI Scale checkbox reads a registered setting (2141)
- an engine warning, a call that was accepted and did nothing, reaches the /errors window in grey instead of one terminal line; a text row trimmed mid-character no longer kills the window's repaint (2135, 2138)

- loading two LoadOnDemand addons that depend on each other loads both instead of killing the client with a stack overflow; each is counted loaded before its own files run, as on the real client (2139)
- the memory report gets its second number, so AceAddon-2.0's memory line (36 copies in the corpus) stops raising and pfUI's panel prints a figure where it printed UNAVAILABLE; garbage collection takes a number and answers nothing, like 1.12's (2136)
- a disabled addon you have uninstalled keeps its row in AddOns.txt through a logout, and a hand-edited name keeps its spelling instead of taking the folder's case (2139)
- a loaded chunk's error lines name it the way the real client does, and a /console argument containing ]] no longer trips a syntax error the 1.12 lexer would raise (2136)

- crossing a zone border prints one Changed Channel line instead of a leave and a join, and General and LocalDefense keep printing in the new zone; walking out of a capital keeps Trade's number and its registration instead of dropping it (2130)
- outside a capital the channel numbers are the reference's: a fresh character holds 1 General, 2 Trade (suspended until a city) and 3 LocalDefense, so /2 reaches the same channel it does on the real client (2137)
- logging into a character reads that character's zone, not the previous one's, so a login in the Eastern Plaguelands no longer joins and leaves Stormwind's channels first; a chat cache with General saved as a custom name gets its id back (2130)
- the Show Tutorials option survives a /reload: it loaded unchecked and clicking it reset every dismissed tutorial account-wide; a world entry no longer switches off nameplates you had turned on (2131, 2132)

- text shapes in the face an addon asked for: MikScrollingBattleText draws in its own Porky instead of a system sans, and Arial Narrow and Friz Quadrata are no longer drawn by the Mac's own fonts (2123)
- Bartender2 and Cartographer stop resetting their profile at every login: a stack trace opens on the caller, where AceDB reads its addon's folder; a font's reported height is a number before its face resolves, which Tablet-2.0 does arithmetic on (2121, 2129)
- a button highlight built from a texture object draws, so Bongos' bar-drag button, _Nameplates' mouseover glow and Quiver's option rows show theirs; clearing a state texture removes it instead of drawing it in every state (2124)
- a toc's repeated SavedVariables lines add up, so all 25 of CT_RaidAssist's saved globals persist instead of seven; colour-mapped TGA icons decode, so FonzAppraiser's and FuBar_WeaponRebuffFu's draw (2126, 2128)
- MikScrollingBattleText's DoT lines are back with their school tints, and the school word is capitalised; a chat line with no colour stays white, and the short colour-id form of adding a message works (2127, 2125)

- a cooldown still running when you log out and back in keeps sweeping instead of vanishing, and another character no longer inherits the previous session's cooldowns (2116)
- the server's Welcome and Patch 1.12 lines print at login in system yellow, and a character whose General, Trade and LocalDefense had gone silent for good gets them back at the next login (2119, 2120)
- the stock Interface Options window loads hidden beside ours, so pfUI's options skin finds the real thing; the Auto-join Guild Recruitment Channel row has a real store, and a /reload no longer trips on its camera dropdowns (2115)
- the combat log words a power gain on the display scale, so MikScrollingBattleText shows +1 Rage where it showed +10; a 1.12 predicate answers 1 or nil rather than a Lua boolean, the test ColorPickerPlus makes (2117, 2118)
- a Lua error quotes a program element with a backquote the way 5.0 does, so AceLibrary's argument checks report their caller instead of raising inside the error path (2122)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the cooldown pie, the GCD sweep, minimap pings and the map arrow draw again after a logout, login or /reload; they went blank until a restart, which read as OmniCC killing the cooldowns (2113)
- an addon's own font on a button label keeps its face, size and outline instead of being undone every frame, MikScrollingBattleText's reported look (2112)
- an empty label reads as nothing rather than an empty string, so Cartographer's map label keeps its colour; a slider thumb with no authored size takes its art's own size, so Dewdrop's Look'n'Feel slider moves (2109, 2110)
- Bagnon's saved bag list comes back in the order it was written, so the keyring stops jumping to the front after a restart; hovering a Bagnon bag costs a third of what it did (2111, 2114)

- five idle minutes sit you down and flag you AFK, thirty log you out through the ordinary countdown; holding a key is idle, moving the mouse is not, and a swimmer stays afloat (2092)
- a knockdown no longer wedges: the landing froze the clip that held the base-animation lock, leaving a knocked-down player on their back for the session (2098); the perf cost pill starts hidden (2099)
- Lua is exactly 1.12's 5.0 — no vararg expression, no #, no %, the remembered table size — so Cartographer loads without errors and Mik's Scrolling Battle Text shows its text, in its own shipped font now that addon TTFs load (2101, 2102, 2103)
- a widget name is a Lua global for SetPoint and its kin, so Bartender2's bars spread out; a button's NormalText disowns its justify, the raise renumbers hidden frames too, and a missing toc file warns instead of erroring (2105, 2100, 2104, 2107, 2106)

- on a 21:9 display the login, select and create chrome lays out on the boxed scene instead of the black bars beside it; at 16:9 nothing moves (B377, 2091)
- a <Model> tile draws only inside its own cell of the shared atlas, so the pet bar's autocast shine no longer bleeds a golden bar onto a bag slot's cooldown (B379, 2093); a slider's first value always fires its handler, so Atlas's options load (2095)
- a knockdown plays out: the reference locks the base animation for Knockdown, LiftOff and Land until the clip ends, and benilla re-picked Stand ten milliseconds in (2096)
- the loot window closes and releases the corpse on your first step, strafe, turn or jump, the reference's movement-start guard; a distance leash shipped first and was a mislabelled census row (2094 → 2097, B381)

- /afk and /dnd send instead of printing Unknown chat type: the flag sets, <AFK> shows over your head at once, the four echo lines are the client's own, and moving clears AFK under the real autoClearAFK CVar (2082, 2088)
- the stun swirl and the other state-kit visuals show — a cache the login map change cleared lost them nine runs in ten — and a state kit's animation id is the base recompute the reference runs, never a play, so the stray Stun one-shot is gone (2085)
- dropping an item on the world brings up the destroy prompt again: since the stock WorldFrame landed, the world is a frame, and the drop's gate had been written for the absence of one (2089, B380)
- the mouse no longer snaps to the window's centre when the loading cover drops on /logout; the cover hands the pointer back only where it knows it is (2090)

- the loading screen's tip of the day is on screen: it was picked and saved but never painted, and once painted it was wiped by the login round trip (2083, 2081)
- the backdrop no longer switches mid-load — logging back in to an expired dungeon held its art for a second and then flipped to the continent's; the art latches at the raise, keyed on the texture, not the map id (2081, 2087)
- a weapon trail indoors takes the room's warm light instead of the sky's ambient, the wearer's own light being the reference's term (2086)
- the glue dialog moves out of the login screen into the shared glue layer, so the select screen's refusals and the login's errors are one widget (2084)

- the last app-side lines become GlobalStrings keys — tooltip cells, party, petition, duel, quest, PvP and rest lines read the install's own wording, so a non-enUS chain shows its own text (2045, 2080)
- a locked chest says Requires Pick Lock, ammo and thrown weapons drop their invented slot word, a met set bonus reads Set: without the count, and a 100 s cooldown reads 1.67 min as the template prints it
- the level-up block and the free-professions line printed twice in chat and print once; a declined invite, a friend coming online, a duel request and a failed quest play the sound 1.12 gives them
- Duel cancelled. is the yellow line at the top of the screen, and a trainer refusal or a failed quest with no cached template shows nothing, as on 1.12

- the party-leader crown on your target's portrait only ever appeared or vanished when you re-targeted them: `PLAYER_FLAGS_CHANGED` was one of eighteen events the migrated stock windows register that nothing here produced, and the census row naming it said "TargetFrame.lua — the AFK/DND badge", which sent the first look at the wrong window — 1.12 draws no AFK/DND badge on any unit frame and build 5875 has no `UnitIsAFK`/`UnitIsDND` at all (ours are a deliberate invention, 2043; the `<AFK>`/`<DND>` the era shows is the chat line's `arg6`), and the event's sole FrameXML consumer is `TargetFrame.lua:88-95` re-running `UnitIsPartyLeader("target")`, whose descriptor leg is bit `0x1` of this very dword; the handler `0x5ee990` XOR-diffs old against new at `0x5ee9b8` and fires 407 at `0x5eea3d` with no bit test in between and ABOVE the local-player GUID gate at `0x5eea93`, once per unit token naming that GUID through `0x515e50`'s fan-out (`arg1` = the token, no `arg2`, and a zero token count skips the fan-out so a stranger nobody targets signals nothing — free here, since `fire_transitions` only ever runs per token); so the trigger is the RAW dword, `UnitState::player_flags`, the `flags`/`UNIT_FLAGS` pattern one field over, because firing off the two bits the struct decodes would under-announce AFK, DND, GM, PvP-desired, helm, cloak and both play-time bits, and `prev.is_some()` keeps a unit's first snapshot silent as its CREATE runs no notify pass; reading the whole handler found an over-fire that was inherited, not invented: benilla fired `PLAYER_UPDATE_RESTING` on ANY flags delta because wow-re's rested-XP note said in as many words that `0x5eeaf2` fires "on every flags change, not only the resting bit", and the bytes say otherwise — `0x5eead0` `f6 45 fc 20 / 74 26` is `test byte [ebp-4],0x20 ; je 0x5eeafc` and the fire sits inside that arm — so every helm toggle, leadership pass and AFK flip had been announcing a resting change to the whole UI; narrowed to the resting bit's own edge, and the same handler's `0x5eeb65 test ah,0x30` arm becomes `PLAYTIME_CHANGED`, whose consumer `PlayerFrame_UpdatePlaytime` already had all three verbs it reads; the claim is corrected in wow-re by a four-derivation round that confirmed all three arms plus the CREATE question; three tests pin it — the producer with a control on `0x400`, a bit no field decodes; the over-fire regression on the real feed, where a helm bit moving fires neither self event; and the crown itself on the stock `TargetFrame.lua`, leadership passing to a held target lighting it with no re-target and the same event for `arg1 = "player"` not — a fixture that first failed on its opening assertion because `UnitIsPartyLeader`'s second leg is a raw GUID compare with no zero guard, so a default `guid: 0` equalled the zeroed leader of an empty group (verified 1.12: it is why `UnitIsPartyLeader(nil)` answers 1 while solo); the unproduced-events census goes 18 → 16 per window, 31 → 29 whole (2078)
- the weapon swing trail darkens with the scene instead of burning at its authored colour: 2076 shipped it unlit and said why — the draw callback turns lighting ON (EGxRs `0x0e = 1` at `0x6c6847`) over vertex format 7, position + packed colour with no normal, and the state bit alone does not say what fixed-function produces from that; the bytes now do: `0x5a1e30` sets DIFFUSE- and AMBIENTMATERIALSOURCE both to `D3DMCS_COLOR1` off the format's diffuse bit, so the vertex colour IS the material; the normal is explicitly disabled rather than stale (`0x592a60` replaces the format mask instead of OR-ing it, `0x59c100` issues `glDisableClientState(GL_NORMAL_ARRAY)` when the bit is clear, and D3D's format-7 descriptor carries −1 in the normal column), so there is no N·L and the diffuse half contributes nothing; and the global `D3DRS_AMBIENT` (EGxRs id 6) has zero writers image-wide and defaults to 0, an earned zero — leaving `out = (Σ enabled lights' ambient) × authoredColour + inherited emissive`, which is why this does not take the lit emitters' `clamp(ambient + diffuse·max(N·L, 0))` term, a sun the reference does not have; `weapon_trail.rs` multiplies the trail's RGB by `WowLighting.ambient`, folded on the CPU into the vertex colours because a per-draw constant rides the vertex stream on this lane, drawing as `EffectLighting::None` and at the authored colour until the first lighting resolve; two named approximations of the class the fishing line already carries — the scene ambient rather than a per-model light collector, so an interior trail takes the exterior ambient, and no emissive, since `EMISSIVEMATERIALSOURCE` is set nowhere and reproducing it would mean inventing a constant; the other half of 2076's open list was a deviation benilla does not have: it claimed the combat-over-combat fast path (`0x5fe43c` returning at `0x5fe48b`, before the trail latch's only read at `0x5fe48e`) was unmodelled and cost trails starting one play early — both wrong, because `0x60d835` arms a one-slot field with a plain `mov` so a second proc OVERWRITES the first and firing on every request would draw superseded arms with superseded colours on 23 of the 34 type-8 kits, and because the driver's request loop already fast-paths it (0406, `select::is_combat_anim` = `0x5fcc10`'s byte-decoded set) and `continue`s without playing, so the edge never rises; a negative asserted about our own code from having written it rather than looked, shipped to wow-re where it drove a build-it verdict for something already built — now pinned by a test that names both mechanisms; and `benilla-extract charprocs` prints `CharParamOne` beside every trail row: wow-re's note justified "not read by this arm" with "every shipped type-8 row carries 20.0 there", and over the 34 kits the column takes six values (22 at 20, six at 15, two at 25, two at 0, one at 17, one at 22 — Sinister Strike's kit 399 is a 15); nothing here reads it either way, but a census that hides the one column a note asserts about cannot catch the note being wrong, and wow-re's re-measure agreed value for value and found the column live at four sites in `0x60d7c0` for other proc types (2079)
- four options that ticked and did nothing — Show Tutorials, Tip of the Day, Profanity Filter, Disable Spam Filter — get their backing, and two of the reasons they were dead were wrong: none of the four was a row in our window at all; they sat in the transcribed `UIOptionsFrameCheckButtons` declaration table beside thirteen more whose features benilla lacks, and these four are exactly the ones where the feature existed and only the setting was missing; `SHOW_TUTORIALS` is a bare `{ index = 28 }`, which an earlier census read as "an index-only entry with no store at all" — wrong, the store is the three special-case arms `UIOptionsFrame_Load` (l.239), `_Save` (l.318) and `_SetDefaults` (l.645) keep for the key, `TutorialsEnabled()` reading the acknowledged bank and `ResetTutorials()`/`ClearTutorials()` writing it, verbs benilla has had since 1976, so the row was one `func` pair away, and the reference's `~=` guard comes with it because without it a Defaults click on a page where tutorials are already on would `ResetTutorials()` and re-arm every popup the player has dismissed; that census moves out of prose into a test checked both directions, the posture the CVar defaults already hold — a name the reference's table carries that nothing registers and no listed blocker fails, and a listed name that has since been registered fails too, twelve rows listed today with the feature each waits on; the two chat filters are PCRE over shipped DBCs, not word lists: `ChatProfanity.dbc` (2289 rows off `patch.MPQ` — `dbc.MPQ`'s copy is 1512) feeds the masker `0x4a1a60` and `SpamMessages.dbc` (28 gold-seller URL patterns; `dbc.MPQ` has none) feeds the predicate `0x4a1ca0`; Blizzard PATCHED PCRE's escape table (`.rdata 0x812330`) so `\<`/`\>` alias onto `\b`, and an unpatched engine makes them literals and silently kills the whole ASCII half of the profanity list while looking correct; CASELESS folds ASCII only, so pattern and subject are both ASCII-lowercased and matched case-sensitively rather than through `(?i)`, which would match `É` where the reference matches nothing; the masker is in place and length-preserving, one token per byte cycling `!@#$%^&*` from a process-global index never reset for the session, patterns in list order not text order — wow-re's oracle transcript reproduced against the real list, "you are a twat and a faggot" → "you are a &*!@ and a !@#$%^", the later word taking the earlier characters because its row (507) precedes the other's (530); two corrections to what this tree believed: `spamFilter` is armed for every chat type EXCEPT `CHAT_MSG_FILTERED` (`0x49aad2`'s `jne` skips the disarm, which the older note read backwards, so our comments claimed the filter bit only on the one type it is exempt from), and `profanityFilter` gates INSIDE the masker at `0x4a1a66`, covering all thirteen call sites rather than the guild MOTD alone; `CHAT_MSG_FILTERED` (`0x5B`) comes with them — it was on the "never `SMSG_MESSAGECHAT` wire" list and is the server's "your message was filtered" notice `ChatFrame.lua` renders at l.1405, dropped with a warning before and delivered now; the chokepoint runs spam, then mask, then fire, in the reference's order, since a dropped line must not consume mask indices; named rather than faked: the other twelve masker sites (mail, guild, item text, the send path) and their `dl = 1` memo, and the whisper leg's `CMSG_CHAT_FILTERED` report whose body is a wow-re DEFERRED with no vmangos handler; each row sits in 1.12's own seat — Profanity Filter closes the Basic Options Display column, Show Tutorials and Show Loading Screen Tips open the Help box, Disable Spam Filter is the last link of the Advanced chat chain and value-inverted, checked ⇔ `spamFilter == "0"` (2077)
- the loading screen shows the tip of the day: `GameTips.dbc` is 74 records in the 5875 enGB chain, off `patch.MPQ`, ids unsorted (the file opens on 396 and closes on 412), so the index the client persists is a record index in load order, never an id; `gameTip` holds the NEXT index, not the one on screen — the client reads it, shows that row and stores `read + 1`, so on-disk values run 1..=74 and never 0, and the reference's own `Config.wtf` reading `SET gameTip "34"` while showing row 33 is exactly what an off-by-one anchors on; the wrap is a clamp, not a modulo (`if (i < 0 || i >= count) i = 0` at `0x46b682`), the walk is sequential, and both guards — `showGameTips` off and the roster's level-zero flag — jump past the `CVar::Set` as well as the draw, so turning tips off freezes the cursor rather than burning through the table invisibly; it draws only on the glue→world transition, because the setter `0x406630` has exactly one caller inside `EnterWorld` and neither `SMSG_TRANSFER_PENDING` arm reaches it, so the pick hangs off the loading screen's world-entry raise and a portal or worldport screen carries no tip; placement is the reference's: `s = 515/(a·1024)` with `a` = aspect × 0.75 (not W/H, which inflates the wrap width by a third at 16:9, and not the FrameXML-length idiom, which is off by 1.25 at 4:3), the block at `(0.5 − s·0.5, 0.1)`, left-justified, body `0xd7c8c8c8` with an opaque black shadow at `(+0.001, −0.001)`, laid out once per raise between the backdrop and the progress bar; the one term deliberately not applied is `yoff = (1 − a)·0.5`, which wow-re left unreconciled (`0x406a60` already applies the letterbox as a viewport and `yoff` is the same term added again inside it, a possible double count on a display narrower than 4:3) — benilla's loading screen is a 4:3 content box by construction and at 4:3 the reference's own `yoff` is zero, so the tip sits at the reference's layout on the one aspect where the ambiguity cannot bite; the `|cffffd100Tip:|r ` prefix and the trailing CR-LF are in the data and the escapes are interpreted, so the gold "Tip:" is markup and the line is built through the markup tokenizer; the cursor persists through the VM's own CVar table (`write_host_cvar`), since the config file is composed from that table and a host write stopping at the knob would reset it every launch — a live run reads `74 game tips` → `tip 0 of 74` → `tip 1 of 74` with `gameTip = "2"` left in the config, and an earlier live run is what caught a `GameTipSetting` the test harness initialised and the real app did not, a panic no unit test could see (2077)
