A boot with no readable WoW install is fatal, with an error dialog (#1630)
With no WoW install found, or a `Data` folder whose archives will not open, benilla booted into a window of textless buttons, since fonts, art and the stock interface all come from the install. It now ends before any window exists. A native error dialog (`rfd`: AppKit, Win32, `zenity` on Linux) names every folder searched, or the folder and the archive error, and says where to put the install; then it exits 1. An unattended run prints the same text to stderr and exits without a dialog. 1.12.1 ends at a fatal dialog for a present but corrupt base archive (`0x403b6f`) and only logs a missing one (`0x403b00`); ending at no install at all is recorded as a `Deviation:`. Tests cover both messages and the failing exit; both cases were run live unattended. Built on macOS, Linux and Windows.

classicapi: C_EncodingUtil for real, and two namespaces 1.12 has no subsystem for
`C_EncodingUtil` is the one namespace in this family that is pure algorithm, which is why it is built properly rather than stubbed: all eight members, in the REAL formats. pfUI's profile sharing is the reader and its own header names the pipeline — SerializeCBOR → CompressString (zlib) → EncodeBase64, prefixed `!pf1!` — with the export path NOT inside a pcall, so clicking Export raised, and the import path inside one, so it failed silently. A profile string is pasted between players, so a blob this client writes has to be readable by the real one and the other way round. So: zlib through flate2 (already the workspace's inflate for MPQ sectors and its compressor for CMSG_AUTH_SESSION's addon block, so this adds a crate to one more manifest and not to the build), RFC 4648 base64, RFC 8949 CBOR, RFC 8259 JSON. Nothing invented here — the trap a hand-rolled codec falls into is round-tripping with ITSELF while being wrong. The decoders are written for hostile input, because a profile string arrives pasted from a forum: every length is checked against what is actually left, nesting is capped, the inflate output is capped at 16 MiB, and a malformed blob answers nil rather than raising or allocating what a crafted header asked for. Tests run the RFCs' own vectors in both directions — including the half-float and tag forms we never write but a real encoder may — a truncated/overlong/deep-nested set, and pfUI's whole export/import pipeline end to end. `C_EquipmentSet` and `C_LootHistory` are subsystems 1.12 does not have at all, and both answer an honest nothing rather than being absent, because pfUI builds both windows and reaches one member of each OUTSIDE its own gate (the equipment manager's `CanUseEquipmentSets` test is one line in one addon; the loot window's Clear button has no test at all). What each would take is written down rather than guessed at. Equipment sets are persistent state 1.12's wire has no concept of — a feature to decide on, not a gap to close, and pfUI already supplies the UI. The loot log is closer than it looks: both packets already carry what the getters answer and `ui_loot_roll.rs` handles them, so it is a bounded list plus three events — but the getters' tuple order is the one thing here that IS a guess, read out of pfUI's own destructures, and building the log would make that guess load-bearing.

lua: a compiled chunk is kept, so a load parses only what changed
The compile is a UI load's biggest removable cost and the only half of it that can be kept — running the chunks is what an addon *is*. Measured through the addon harness's `--together` load of the player's own 91 addons, three passes: ``` no cache 4,788 chunks compiled 3,324 ms cold 1,592 compiled, 3,196 from cache 1,482 ms warm 0 compiled, 4,788 from cache 471 ms (+24 ms of keys) ``` **About 940 ms off every login and every `/reload`**, and the first load after an addon changes pays only for the files that changed. `benilla-config/cache/lua/`, one file per chunk, keyed by a hash of the chunk's own bytes and its name. Both chunk paths go through it — `run_chunk_named` and the XML loader's own runner, which is how the biggest files in the corpus arrive (pfQuest's database is 33 MiB of `<Include>`d Lua). It cannot go wrong quietly. A key is a property of the bytes, so an edited file is a different entry and a stale one is never asked for; an entry that is truncated, corrupt or from another Lua build fails `lua_undump`'s header check and the source is parsed instead, so a bad entry costs the parse it meant to save. The dump keeps its debug info — `debugstack` is an addon-facing verb and a stripped chunk would lie about its own lines — which the test asserts by raising from a cached chunk and demanding its file and line back. The folder is capped at 512 MiB (one load's worth is 159 MiB) and emptied wholesale when it is over: a cache that needed an eviction policy would need bookkeeping that costs more than it saves. The first build of this looked like it worked and saved nothing, because `ahash::AHasher::default()` is seeded per process: every session hashed the same file to a different name, found nothing and rewrote the whole cache (4,776 entries, 477 MiB, a steady 1,592 misses a run). Fixed seeds, and the instrument that caught it — `benilla_ui::script::chunk_cache_line()`, hits and misses with the time each spent — stays, because "the cache is installed" and "the cache is working" turned out to be different claims. Verified: the harness's verdicts over all 91 addons are **identical** with the cache and with `WOW_LUA_CACHE=0`, the full gate chain is green, and the `WOW_DATA` failure sets are unchanged (benilla-app 270, benilla-formats 80).

sound: decode addon .ogg, which is most of the addon audio on this install
unitscan's rare alert was reported as silent. The binding and the loose-file read were both already right: kira was built without the `ogg` container and `vorbis` codec features, so `sfx_from_bytes` returned an error for every Vorbis file and `sound/ui.rs` logged it at `debug!`. A silent alert with nothing in the log to say why. It is not one horn. **75 `.ogg` files ship with the installed addons** — DoiteAuras 57, BigWigs 11, unitscan 3, HCWarn 2, TWThreat and Cleanup one each — so every alert any of them raises by `PlaySoundFile` was dead, HCWarn's hardcore death warnings included. AI_VoiceOver ships `.mp3` and always played, which is exactly what made this look like an addon-specific fault rather than a missing decoder. Stock 1.12 plays wav and mp3 only. The deviation is from 1.12 and toward the client the player actually runs: these are Turtle/OctoWoW addons shipping ogg because that client plays it. `docs/ADDON_COMPAT.md` carries the row. The test decodes a real `.ogg` out of the player's own addon folder and skips when there is none, the same gate the chain-backed tests use for a WoW install — rather than carrying someone else's audio into the tree as a fixture.

Keys are named by the active layout, as 1.12.1 names them (#748)
Letter and punctuation keys were named by their US position, so on AZERTY the key labelled Z bound as W, and Ctrl+A sat on the key labelled Q. 1.12.1 on Windows names a key from the VK its layout produced. `VK_A`–`VK_Z` and digits are named as themselves, and other keys by `MapVirtualKeyA` (`0x42da39`); a key with no character is dropped (`0x42da49`). The EditBox's Ctrl chords switch on that same name (`0x77b1fb`). The Mac client names keys by `KeyTranslate`. Now: - Windows takes the same path through `MapVirtualKeyExW`. - The Mac names keys through the current layout, or the ASCII-capable layout it pairs with. - Linux follows one documented rule. - Bindings, Key Bindings capture and Ctrl/Cmd+A/C/X/V all follow the layout. - A character above U+00FF names its key, as a deviation. Tests cover AZERTY, Hebrew, Greek, Lithuanian, Turkish, Bulgarian, Hungarian and Dvorak names, layout switches and chords.

Ambience beds stream from the archive, opened off the main thread (#725)
An ambience change read and decoded the whole bed on the main thread, about 40 ms a swap. 1.12.1 opens the bed as a looping FMOD stream that reads the archive through its file callbacks (`0x460b54` → `0x7a54d0`, `FSOUND_Stream_Open` at `0x7a5525`). Now: - MPQ files open for in-place reads, one sector at a time. - The bed streams from the archive, opened on the IO pool. A newer swap drops an open still in flight. - kira moves to 0.12.4 on symphonia 0.6. 0.5 sized PCM frames from `nBlockAlign`, which 98 stereo WAVs store as 2, so a streamed bed fell silent halfway. - A fork patch stops a stream at its last packet instead of spinning. - A sector that inflates short is refused. Tests cover a bed's true length, a seamless loop, an off-thread open, the stop at the last packet and the refusal.

release 0.2.0 (#468)
The 0.2.0 release: the workspace version is 0.2.0, `rust-toolchain.toml` pins the stable the release was checked with, `1.98.1`, so the tag builds with that compiler after stable moves on, and the README says each release is a tag on the Releases page. Checked on this tree: the land gates, the live smoke run (its build line reads `benilla build 0.2.0`), the Linux and Windows compile of `benilla-app`, and the client on Vulkan (lavapipe) through its four capture scenes. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Logging in to an account with no characters lands on the empty character list, as in 1.12.1, instead of creating a Human Warrior (#457)
Logging in to an account or realm with no characters lands on the empty character list. Until now the login cycle created a male Human Warrior on the server, named `WOW_CHAR` or "One", on every login that found an empty roster, a typed one included and again after Change Realm. - **The reference.** The client builds `CMSG_CHAR_CREATE` in one place, `0x5aac50`, reached only from the glue binding `CreateCharacter` (`0x4719e0` → `0x4711d0` → `0x46b290` → `0x5aac50`), which stock `CharacterCreate.lua` calls only from `CharacterCreate_Okay`. With an empty roster, stock `CharacterSelect.lua`'s `UpdateCharacterList` disables Enter World and Delete and shows Create New Character, which benilla's select screen already does. - **The change.** The create-if-empty step is gone from the per-realm cycle, and `NetConfig`, which existed only for it, goes with it. The create screen's own path is untouched. - **Scripted runs.** `WOW_CHAR` must now be on the account: a driverless run whose `WOW_CHAR` is missing fails at select, as it already did on a non-empty roster, and a player's run shows the list. `docs/CONTRIBUTING.md` says so, and names `WOW_PROBE_CHARCREATE` as the explicit way to make one. Checked: `an_empty_account_parks_at_select_without_creating_a_character` drives the real login cycle against a fake realmd (the server half of SRP6) and a fake world server answering an empty roster. It fails with the old step restored (the client sends `CMSG_CHAR_CREATE` on its own) and passes without it. Live against a local vmangos on a fresh account with no characters: before, the server gained a level-1 "One"; after, the client parks on the empty list and the account still holds no character. With a `WOW_CHAR` not on the account, a driverless run exits at select, and nothing is created. Gates and the smoke run green on macOS; no platform seam touched.

the spell owns its state, and a malformed file is refused, not a crash
- the spell owns its lifecycle state: the in-flight cast, the local cancel, the cooldowns and the spell-modifier tables live in one module (2328) - a malformed MPQ, DBC, M2 or WDT file is refused instead of crashing the client, nine read sites bounded - a test that needs the install or the addon corpus fails instead of skipping when the data is there; the Bagnon render suite runs again (2329) - the dev crash injector is armed on every platform, and no instrument writes a path relative to the working directory Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the leader crown updates, the trail darkens, and four dead options work
- 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)

the quest windows go stock, and the 20 ms frames were mis-split pairs
- the quest giver's dialog and the quest log are the reference's own `QuestFrame.xml` and `QuestLogFrame.xml`, run off the player's chain at the reference's own toc seats; our 1366-line and 1999-line copies are deleted, and the verbs the stock files call are built — the four `GameTooltip` quest-item and reward-spell setters, the reward spell itself (parsed on all three packets and dropped by the model until now), and two verbs; the detail pane could never scroll because `UpdateScrollChildRect` measured a frame late where the reference's measure is synchronous, so it measures through the installed font engine now; and ten things the reference does that ours did not, each found by a test that had enshrined ours — a shift-click never selects, an empty log hides the whole detail pane and says "No Active Quests", the abandon confirm lives in the popup registry (1944) - the quest bindings' law, read off the binary and folded back: no 1.12 packet carries a quest background material — `GetQuestBackgroundMaterial` (`0x502230`) forks on the dialog's SOURCE object, an item answering its template's PageMaterial, a GameObject its template data, a creature nil (FrameXML's "Parchment"), the id naming a `PageTextMaterial.dbc` row whose six words are nowhere in the binary; its twin `ItemTextGetMaterial` has the same body, so the reader window already held every piece and the giver's feed runs the same resolve; `QuestChooseRewardError` is game-error row `0x98`, and the row plays `igQuestFailed` first, which the verb now queues; the reward-spell getters' third return is `Spell.dbc` Attributes bit 5 (1161 of 22357 rows set — craft-cast spells set, `Pattern:` teaching spells clear), read off the catalog now (1946) - the "20 ms frames" of a raid, chased to their number: the probe's worst frames now carry their churn (entities, assets, first-play sound decodes, live particles, the GPU reading) and in a Blackrock raid with sound on every one of those read flat; then the same window on the PACED clock — under vsync with pipelined rendering the raw delta is mis-split into long/short pairs that sum to exact refresh multiples, so an alone Stormwind leg read 115 of 300 frames over budget with cpu and gpu both at their means, while the paced clock read 0 skipped frames in every leg; what remains real in the raid is `cpu_p99` at 22–23 ms with sound on; and every submesh the streamer spawns now carries why it is an entity, counted per reason — 5.8k resident ADT-doodad submeshes at the Stormwind auction house, 5.3k of them hidden, three prop families the retained pass declines by rule, each riding every per-`Mesh3d` sweep for ~0.4 ms of the alone frame (1947) - a raid's dozen voices cost the mixer ~1.5 ms of every 60 Hz frame: upstream kira spatializes every frame — normalizes, the attenuation curve and a dB→amplitude `powf` per frame per spatial track, two more `powf`s for the volume tween, ~1.7 M `powf`s a second at 48 kHz × 12 tracks for gains that change imperceptibly across a chunk — so kira 0.12.1 is vendored with one patch: the spatial gains and the volume × fade amplitude are evaluated at the chunk's two ends and interpolated across its ~10.7 ms, the granularity FMOD 3, the reference's own mixer, updates them at; nothing a listener can name changes (1945); and rig poses are evaluated in parallel over rigs — each reads its shared clips and writes only its own pose, and a raid's ~400 live rigs were 0.4 ms of one thread walked serially on the main thread's critical path (1947) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

a 40-man raid costs less per frame, and the money frames go stock
- a 40-man raid cost +5 to +8 ms of CPU per frame — a population, not a hot function — and three cuts landed where it was measured: the rig palette upload sends one `write_buffer` per run, bridging the gaps parked bodies leave between live rigs (calls 93 → 3); a built material becomes an asset when something visible binds it, not when a spawner builds it — 9.9k material assets were alive for 36 drawn batches, so a material is realized only once bound and visible, readers that clone before binding doing it themselves through one new function in the engine's wall (172 → 173): a 17× cut in live GPU objects; and a body's batches spawn as material groups — a geared body stood as 12–27 mesh parts, its skin composite drawn as five separate batches, and two visible batches now join when nothing downstream can tell them apart: parts per body 17 → 12, the Stormwind raid leg 17.0–21.0 → 15.65–15.82 `cpu_ms` (1929, 1940) - the instruments that priced it, all on the probe line: wgpu's own resource census, because a sampled profile put roughly half of the pass encoder in usage trackers sized to the device's live buffer and texture counts — a term that scales with residency, not with what is drawn, and nothing printed the number; the active camera count, since every view is its own pass set; the UI's live texture-identity runs, one 2D draw each, which is the number a UI change moves, not the quad count; and parts and materials per dressed body on the dress census, the ceiling on merging a body's batches read off a real body instead of guessed from a model's batch table (1940) - the coin kit retires: every remaining money display — quest progress, the mail purse and postage, the trade recipient, the tooltip, the quest log, the trainer's purse and cost — moves onto the reference's `MoneyFrameTemplate`, each seat already matching ours; the progress panel's required-money flow is ported in full — `QuestFrame.lua:168-190` colours the FRAME red/white AND the LABEL black/dark-grey when the quest costs more than you hold, where ours had neither colour; the mail postage takes the reference's name and label, trade and mail issue no explicit update because the frames repaint on their own events, and the trainer's cost label is shown or hidden with its `local COSTS_LABEL` shadow deleted; with the trainer converted the hand-built coin trios have no consumer, so their templates and the `BenillaMoney_*` helpers are deleted and `MoneyFrame.xml` is the only money kit (1937) - the crowd-control ladder's aura exemption exists, and it is a join between two `Spell.dbc` records — each arm asks whether the spell being cast is itself an immunity covering the aura that blocks it (Ice Block cast while stunned), the school arm shifting because `School` is an index and `EffectMiscValue` a mask; what the scan mostly decides is WHICH message a refusal carries — a blocking aura the cast does not counter renames the reason to "Can't do that while %s" (1941); bevy_audio leaves the build — its plugin had been disabled since 0530, but disabling a plugin does not remove a crate, and rodio, a second cpal and an Ogg/Vorbis decoder were still linked into a client that mixes through kira (1932); and cpal has four stream errors, not two — a routine ALSA underrun was treated as "the device is gone", tearing the stream down on every hiccup; now only a lost or invalidated device rebuilds (1939) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Linux and Windows get their sound back, and emotes refuse while moving
- every build off macOS has been silent since the 09-02 snapshot (B356): the non-macOS device layer was a stub that opened nothing, and nothing had ever compiled the client for another target; that layer is now the same output stream over cpal — one seam, not two stacks: the ring, the render thread and the rebuild-on-device-change loop are one code on every platform, only the device file differs; the audio thread never allocates, a lost or changed default device is noticed at kira's own cadence, and realtime is `SCHED_FIFO` on unix and MMCSS "Pro Audio" on Windows, either refusable, the ring turning a refusal into a degradation; and the two instruments this bug says were missing exist — a Linux and Windows cross-compile under `clippy -D warnings`, and a live output test that opens the real device and asserts the ring never ran dry, because compiling is not sounding (1920) - an emote that requires standing still now refuses on the move: `CheckEmoteEligible`'s `0x4000` arm writes an out-param that `DoEmote` turns into a red "You can't do that while moving!" and aborts; 20 emotes of 78 can raise the line, read off the shipped `Emotes.dbc`; SWIMMING is not in the mask, so a swimmer holding still emotes fine, and `IsSelfControlled` is TRUE for an ordinary player, so a feared or confused player emotes away happily (1904); and the cast path gains its equipped-item rung — the button greyed and pressing it still sent: the reference short-circuits to "fits" on four gates, not one, the miss being a zero `EquippedItemSubClassMask`, which means no item required at all, and the rung sits above the crowd-control validator, so a player both stunned and missing the weapon is told about the weapon; that ladder has six arms, not three — CHARMED, FLEEING and CONFUSED join (1925) - the quest reward's money is the reference's own widget: the tail of the shared `QuestFrameItems_Update` drives `questState.."MoneyFrame"` through `MoneyFrame_Update`, and the two hand-built coin trios become one `MoneyFrameTemplate` instance each at the reference's anchors, which our coins already used; the progress panel stays on coins, being the required-money flow, not the reward one (1928); and the flight master's `!` joins the questgiver sweep, because the green `!` and the gold `!` are the SAME slot, `unit+0xb2c`, torn down once before both queries re-issue; the mouseover re-ask is refuted — the only taxi-status sender has one live caller — and the two queries are not symmetric: the questgiver's goes out on every sweep, the taxi one only when the unit's key moves or on a full sweep, as the wire shows at Dungar Longdrink: 68 questgiver status queries against 1 taxi-node one (1918) - `GetSpellTabInfo` out of range answers `nil, nil, 0, 0` — the reference returns four values on every path that returns (`0x4b3ce0`), and ours answered a single nil copied from another binding's shape; it matters because stock `SpellBookFrame_OnLoad` calls it unconditionally and then does `id > (offset + numSpells)`, which a nil raises on and (0+0) makes true, hiding every button on the page — the behaviour to match; the argument raises the reference's usage string when absent, and the index truncates toward zero THEN decrements (1931); the perf probe gains a `WOW_PROBE_UNCAP=vsync` arm, because the uncapped present mode is a request, not a schedule — measured, it taxes the number it was meant to pin (11.80 `cpu_ms` uncapped against 14.65 under it), so the default stays uncapped; and the last three test temp paths are keyed on the pid, after concurrent runs raced on one fixed shared file Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the audio crackle is gone, and a trainer answers a click as a trainer
- the audio crackle was our own stall sampler: `/usr/bin/sample` suspends every thread of the task for each of its snapshots, CoreAudio's realtime IO thread included, and coreaudiod times the client out — every HAL overload of the session sat inside a sample of our own process (three for three by timestamp), and the watchdog fires on exactly the stalls the crackle lands on (a desktop switch's `nextDrawable` block, a world entry's compile burst); in-frame sampling now waits for a run nobody can hear; and the output stream is ours — kira's renderer runs 256-frame chunks on a realtime render thread (time-constraint policy, joined to the device's IO workgroup) into a lock-free ring, the IOProc copies one device buffer and touches nothing else (≤ 0.01 ms), the device buffer goes 2048 → 512, a lost or changed default device rebuilds the stream (cpal's no-op error callback on macOS had paused it forever), a debug allocator aborts on any allocation inside either realtime path, and per-cycle meters name a skipped cycle's layer; `SoundBufferSize` is registered at the reference's own FMOD dial, and `audiowatch.py` puts the OS side — thread bands, coreaudiod's overload verdicts — on the same timeline - right-clicking a trainer, questgiver, innkeeper, spirit healer, petitioner, tabard designer or battlemaster sent `CMSG_GOSSIP_HELLO` — eight of the reference's fourteen service arms collapsing into one packet, because the dispatch keyed on the CURSOR kind and Speak covers eight bits; the reference runs two structurally identical ladders over `UNIT_NPC_FLAGS` (one for the cursor at `0x482336`, one for the send at `0x5f0289`), so the ladder is transcribed, first match wins low to high: questgiver → `CMSG_QUESTGIVER_HELLO`, trainer → `CMSG_TRAINER_LIST`, petitioner → `CMSG_PETITION_SHOWLIST`, and the spirit healer and innkeeper send NOTHING on the click — they cache the guid and raise the confirm, whose Lua accept sends with a zero guid — both ghost-gated at entry, so a living player clicking a menuless spirit healer now gets exactly what the reference gives: nothing; the stable-master conjunct and the banker/auctioneer fork fall out of the bit order for free - the -1 blood id is unfilled, not none, and the tests now name the creatures: -1 splits families that share a directory (QuillBoar beside QuillBoarWarrior, GnollMelee beside GnollCaster) and splits single creatures shipped under two rows (a Baby Murloc is both), so a "bloodless" reading would put non-bleeding quilboar beside bleeding quilboar warriors in one Razorfen room; `violenceLevel` 2 IS the reference's default — formatted out of a per-region cap table at `0x86c3f8`, and the one capped locale is koKR, whose green-blood row the table predicts from bytes alone; a spurt whose victim authors no attachment point is dropped, not relocated, and no creature-keyed suppression exists anywhere on the spurt path (ten stop conditions, none keyed on the creature) - twenty dead copies of ours (`PanelTemplates_*`, `TabButtonTemplate`, `FauxScrollFrame_*`, `ScrollFrame_OnLoad`, `ScrollingEdit_*`) that a later chain entry had been shadowing are deleted under a gate that fails any such shadow, and deleting them turned 141 tests red on four bugs live since the kit swap: lists populated before showing (the reference gates every scroll-bar write on `IsVisible()`, so both arrows were dead on every faux list), every faux window wired to a `frame.updateFunc` the reference does not have (the bar moved, the list did not follow), a trainer pitch declared `local` where an `<OnVerticalScroll>` chunk cannot see it, and the armed-wheel guard bypassed by the template's own `<OnMouseWheel>`; nine faux windows (Skill, Craft, TradeSkill, Auction, QuestLog, Friends, ScriptLog) are still on `updateFunc` and their lists do not scroll until each is rewired Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

cinematics play, and a lit particle stops brightening as you turn
- cinematics play: `SMSG_TRIGGER_CINEMATIC` resolves through `CinematicSequences.dbc` → `CinematicCamera.dbc` → a `Cameras\*.m2` whose camera record is an eye path, a look-at path and a roll — cubic tracks with the full step / linear / Bézier / Hermite dispatch the bone loops collapse to step-or-linear (every shipped fly-by is Bézier), planted at the row's origin and facing (`Rz(+facing)`, checked against vmangos's own waypoint table: 8.5 yd mean on the human path, 154 with the other sign); FOV is per shot (the Undead intro authors 90°, the rest 45°), roll is authored around whole turns, the flight ends at the sequence band's end, a trigger arriving before the loading cover lifts is latched and started when it does, ESC skips through `CinematicFrame`'s own `OnKeyDown` (`StopCinematic` has zero native callers), and every path acks — natural end, ESC, or an unresolvable trigger immediately, as before; `.debug play cinematic <id>` replays any of them - a cinematic hides the HUD — `UIParent:Hide()` reaches nothing here because the HUD frames are not its children, so the ALT-Z draw-level hide is used and the letterbox moves out of FrameXML onto Bevy UI nodes where that hide cannot reach it, recomputed per frame (bars only wider than 4:3, the picture cropped to 2:1) — and the restore only un-hides a UI this module hid - a lit particle's normal is world up, one constant per draw, not camera-facing: Onyxia's always-on floor haze read about four times brighter from a level camera than from above because the shader dotted a to-eye normal against a fixed light; the reference uploads row 2 of the view matrix — world +Z carried into eye space — on every vertex and carries the light into the same frame, so the rotation cancels; 400 lit emitters (the waterfalls, chimney and campfire smoke, Westfall dust, Dun Morogh snow) stop brightening and dimming as you turn - the `play` profile drops ThinLTO — rustc #86049 was intermittently poisoning the incremental link with `_anon.<hash>.llvm.<id>` symbols promoted by an earlier compile (48 unresolved across 7 codegen units; 1065 such symbols → 0 after) — and `benilla-formats` stops taking `image` with default features, which had been compiling a complete AV1 encoder into a crate that writes two PNGs: 499 → 466 workspace crates Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the auction house opens, the Honor tab lands, and a day of fixes
- the auction house end to end: right-clicking an auctioneer opens Browse/Bids/Auctions on the server's reply — search, the category tree from your own DBCs, the reference's 50-a-page pager, multi-key sorting (directions corrected at the bytes), bid/buyout, the sell slot with deposit and duration, cancel with its fee popup; prices sit on the reference's own money-frame kit in lined-up columns, the twenty auction messages split refusals-red / outcomes-to-chat, and a won or sold auction reads as a proper mail receipt — the window's Lua re-worded in our own terms after the overlap ratchet caught the first cut leaning on the reference's text - the PvP honor system whole: the Honor tab and the inspect page over a real wire model, with current rank and highest-ever rank correctly two different fields - a day of reported fixes: WASD survives a /logout re-entry, addon settings save on a window close and Cmd+Q (exactly once — a mac close could fire the tail twice), clams open again, random-enchant items name themselves on every surface, the loot window's rows hold their seats with legible counts, idle players stop sinking through building floors, the shooter re-pulls between Auto Shots, portraits loosen ~19% to the client's own aspect-1.0 matrix, and big creatures thump the camera off the CameraShakes table - character select clicks like 1.12 — captions whiten on hover, buttons fire on release, Humans face straight ahead off the stage bone's real yaw, the facing is per-character, and hunter/warlock pets stand beside you at their family-ramp size with their own emitters (the imp's flames), the Voidwalker's sequence-hidden shackles culled - the smaller player-facing set: nameplate on/off rows in Options with the CanAttack category gate (emissaries stop plating), the bonus bar slides up with igBonusBarOpen, the camera's framing height glides on a shapeshift, the open letter evicts the centre seat, the far-band fog hull stops printing a pale horizon stripe at low view distance, the guide arrow is gold with per-source rim art, error text fades through its shadow too, and /convertraid converts the party - README: the auction house and PvP honor move out of "not built yet" Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

liquids keep time in the shader, and the frame is measured CPU-bound
- water and lava keep time in the shader: the 24 Hz CPU tick that re-uploaded every liquid material is gone, −0.28 ms at the Stormwind gates, and lava scrolls smoothly instead of stepping - static transform tracking is pinned on — the adaptive check spent two full scans a frame to say yes in a world where movers are 1–3% of the rows - WOW_MEGA_STATIC merges static geometry per material and 133-yard cell — an experiment lever, priced at −1.15 ms CPU for +0.3 ms GPU at the Stormwind gates - WOW_GPU_MS times the whole frame on the GPU and reads 2.2 ms against 17.4 CPU at the Stormwind gates: the frame is CPU-bound, so the work ahead is on the CPU side Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

- Lua 5.0's generic-for and nested long strings are restored in a forked VM — 60 corpus addons stopped dying on one deleted opcode - a day of demand-driven carving takes the 218-addon corpus from 24 addons surviving a session start to 114, with 144 loading without a single error - Bagnon draws a real bag and answers real gestures — hover tooltip, pickup, use, drag — because our frames wear the reference's names, and the reference's own ContainerFrame.lua runs off the player's install instead of being transcribed - the physics broad phase leaves: nothing in the client reads a contact, and it was measured at up to 41% of main-thread samples in real sessions Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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

benilla-world: the engine becomes its own crate
- the world engine splits from the game into a benilla-world crate — 112 files, and the wall is ratcheted to zero names of the game inside the engine - the engine's public doorway is counted and gated at 32 items, and the render materials, shaders and asset cache move down to benilla-assets - the game's files leave the engine's asset root — game:// is its own space — and a spike binary boots the engine with no game attached - weather rides along: snowfall emission is denominated in the reference's frame cap, and a long teleport retires the stranded precipitation field instead of leaving it behind Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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

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

feign death plays dead everywhere, and the attack keys go exclusive
- feign death plays dead for real: the body collapses and stays down, both bars read 0 and DEAD, the nameplate drops, the combat hum goes quiet - melee and Auto Shot are exclusive now: starting one stops the other, even mid-swing - another client's addon chatter no longer prints as party chat - right-click presses look pressed, rage and happiness read on their real scale, and the login boxes blink their caret Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the pet gets its frame, flooded rooms fill, and macros really fire
- the pet gets its own unit frame beside yours, and an Attack order no longer latches as the standing command - five rooms that always read bone dry hold their water now, the Deeprun Tram's flooded stretches among them - macros fire through the client's own chat door, and the macro window fits its tabs and scrolls its icon chooser - the options window grows a Nameplates page and its first dropdown, and the name-display switches apply live in the world Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

pets get their action bar, macros arrive, and hunters draw the bow
- a hunter's or warlock's pet has its action bar now: attack, follow, stay, the pet's own spells with cooldowns and autocast sparkles - the macro system lands: the macro window, the icon chooser, /cast and /macro, and macros dragged onto the action bar - hunter shots look right at last: the bow draws and releases on the shot, and the arrow lays a spark trail its whole flight - the options window re-dresses in 1.12's own art with the classic dialog look, and gets a working search box and clickable steppers Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the Options window goes era, and settings finally persist
- one era-style Options window: window chrome, category list, search box and its own ESC rung, with the game menu reshaped to match - settings are real CVars now: GetCVar/SetCVar reach Lua, and your changes persist as a diff in benilla/config.toml - all local state lives in one visible benilla/ folder beside your Data/ — nothing hides in platform config dirs - UI text stays crisp at any scale and survives a mid-session resolution change: glyphs measure in the environment they raster in Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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

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

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

the voidwalker's eyes come back, and skinning becomes ours
- The voidwalker's eye glow vanished whenever the camera rose above eye level. Three investigations said depth; measuring the depth buffer inside the live quads said otherwise — the fragments reached the framebuffer every frame, and the body's own transparent batches painted over them. The real client draws a model's particles after that model's batches, always. Ours now does: every effect carries a draw-order rung sized to clear exactly its own model. - Widened to every effect family after asking "what else does this fix": ribbon trails (a wisp's streamers wove six batches deep into its own body and flickered as the head whipped) and 3-D model particles (Cone of Cold's shards). A census over all 9,691 models found 967 whose own body could paint over their effects; all take the rung now. - The skinning lane is ours end to end: every rig's joint matrices live in our shared GPU buffer, written only when a rig actually moved, and our shader reads them. The engine's lane rewrote the entire joint buffer every frame and swept every entity in the world for changed transforms — that machinery now runs against empty sets. Another 6.7 CPU ms off the worst reported dungeon spot, which now holds a flat 60 fps with p99 under 19 ms. - Getting around while developing: Ctrl+Cmd+G lands your character where the free-fly camera is, and Alt-clicking the world map teleports you there (both ride the server's own teleport, GM-gated). The frozen-body coordinates the panel used to copy while flying now follow the camera. - A stuck main thread now diagnoses itself: a watchdog samples our own stacks and prints where the time went, and a hung teardown names its last system instead of hanging the window.

crowded dungeons back to 60 fps: two per-NPC costs collapse
- The dungeon framerate reports were right about the mechanism: the cost is CPU-side and it scales with NPC count, not with what's drawn. Two per-unit lanes were each 30–100x more expensive than the work they do. Measured at the reported Lower Blackrock Spire spot: 29.7 ms/frame, 72 CPU ms, before. - "Which room is this NPC in" scanned whole dungeon groups triangle by triangle — a spire stacks several 15k-face groups into any vertical column, so 37 moving NPCs cost 1.2 million triangle tests per frame. Each group's faces now sit in a column index built at load; same verdicts (pinned by exactness tests), 88k tests, the lane drops from 11.3 ms to 1.1 ms. - Animating one creature cost ~190 microseconds per frame in generic per-bone animation machinery — hash lookups and boxed curves per bone, mostly to produce constants. A direct pose evaluator now does the same math into the same joints for ~16 microseconds per rig, checked bone-for-bone against the old output across crossfades, overlays and masks. The reference animates every in-range unit with no view cull, and now so can we: a raid's worth of animating rigs (~450) costs ~4 CPU ms where it used to cost ~85. - Net at the reported spot: a flat 60 fps. The performance probes also learned to report CPU work (ms and %) instead of wall-clock fps, which is what makes these numbers repeatable on a busy machine — and comparable to the Mac report's own units.

copy and paste works everywhere, and the sun keeps its colour
- One text-input law for every field. Login, character create and the delete dialog each improvised their own tiny keyboard handling — no caret movement, no selection, no clipboard, and Ctrl/Cmd+V typed a literal "v" into the password box. All of them now run the same byte-verified edit-box law as chat: clipboard, select-all, word moves, shift-selection, the real 0.5 s caret blink. The password box masks what you copy off it, like the original. - Copy/paste on Linux had two independent causes, one per direction: our window is Wayland but the clipboard backend spoke X11 only, and a copy relinquished the X11 selection the moment it returned (an X11 clipboard lives only as long as its owning connection). Both fixed — Wayland windows get a real Wayland clipboard, X11 keeps a held handle. AltGr is not Ctrl anymore either, so Polish and German layouts can type ą, ć and ź in chat instead of triggering select-all. Compile-checked on Linux; wants a real-session retest. - The exterior sun keeps its colour. A per-channel clamp saturated the warm continental sun to pale yellow-white on every sunlit fence, post and doodad; the clamp now happens once, at the sum, so the fiery orange survives — the reported Silverpine fence and Blackrock steps match the reference's own arithmetic. - A pool has a floor. Undercity's upper slime channels claimed the dry room a storey below them — 115 yards down still read as submerged. A pool now stops at its own room's floor; a sweep of every building in the shipped world found 51 such stacked sites across 6 buildings, all closed. - Ctrl/Cmd+Z hides the whole UI layer for clean screenshots, and instrumented debug runs open their window in the background instead of stealing focus.

other players walk the world, and NPCs speak your name
- Other players walk the world. A watched player's motion between server updates now runs through the same grounded movement resolve as your own character — same capsule, same colliders, same step-up and ground election — so they follow terrain every frame instead of every packet, and stop at a wall instead of walking into it and being snapped back. Their jumps are swept against the world too, and a standstill jump steered mid-air reports that steer, the one mid-air press the reference client broadcasts rather than defers. - The move relay rebuilt: relayed moves ride a per-unit chain on real time, a due move never jumps ahead of its unit's queue, and SMSG_COMPRESSED_MOVES — the batched carrier the server sends under load — is decoded rather than skipped. Our own send path now matches the reference client's: facing streams while moving, Nagle is off so each packet is one write, and the strafe axis nets so left and right can never ride the same packet. - NPC and quest text speaks the whole $-macro grammar, carved from the reference bytes — your name, class and race, the gendered forms, and the server's live world states — and the same substitution feeds gossip, quest text, the quest log and unit frames. Greetings are a weighted draw, rolled per NPC per open, and a quest giver with no quest to give is no longer clickable, where it used to open a dialog holding nothing but a placeholder greeting. - Spell tooltips finish the reference's line law: cast time and cooldown behind the real passive gate, the required tool or form, the reagents block, the chance-to-X line, a multi-bit equipped-item requirement named properly instead of by raw bits, and a buff's dispel class. - The UI layout engine got a dense, reusable anchor solver, and a change gate that skips the resolve entirely on frames where no layout input moved — in practice, almost every idle frame. Pets are named by their pet number rather than a creature-template entry, so the client asks the query the server can actually answer. And the asset extractor grew a stray-geometry census for tracking down geometry that renders where it should not. This snapshot replaces the six dated `sync` commits that stood here before it, whose subjects said nothing but the date. If you cloned before now: `git fetch && git reset --hard origin/main`.
