- the mix is bounded the way the reference's is: FMOD gave 1.12 exactly twelve software channels and nothing else limits a priest buffing five people — ported as a 12-voice ceiling (a probe capture read 42 live voices at +13 dBFS, the limiter pumping 13 dB to hold it), plus same-kit copies started in one frame capped at two, since five sample-aligned Fortitudes are one sound +14 dB; `$WOW_SOUND_PROBE` records the mix before and after the limiter with a timeline, F9 stamps the moment
- the raid tab draws its window art again — its four corner textures were written with single backslashes, which Lua drops silently, and a sweep now reads every archive path a shipped Lua chunk names; a drag whose release never arrives (pointer left the window, a second press) ends instead of gluing the frame to the cursor for the rest of the session, and `WOW_PROBE_DRAG` drives any UI drag headlessly in a live client
- the item tooltip fits its set bonuses again: an emptied line kept its last measured height forever (a pooled cell with no way to say "empty"), and the two blank rows above the set block are the reference's own literal (a space and a newline) — a whole row each, not the empty string
- an equipped BoE or BoP piece reads Soulbound: the bind line reads the item's own flags through the client's bound predicate instead of the template's bonding, one predicate shared with the enchant cursor's bind confirm

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

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

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

- 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

- clicking your mount item while mounted dismounts you, and the mount icon no longer wears a stack "1"
- the horse appears and you're simply in the seat pose with the mount's cloud puff, no spellcast finishing over the saddle — and dismounting cuts clean to standing, no phantom jump-landing
- a mounted rider counter-turns head only, item-targeted spells show the targeting cursor, and the wrong thing in a quiver says "Only Arrows can be placed in that."
- liquid lookups ride a spatial index, and the camera's waterline comes from the client's own corner probe

- the mount transition re-seats the rider instead of rebuilding them: shield glows, weapon enchants and worn visuals stay lit through mount and dismount
- an enchanted item's tooltip carries its enchant line, coloured per slot, with a temporary enchant's countdown
- a server refusal with nothing to say now says nothing: the raw "Inventory error" debug line is gone, real refusals still print
- the mail icon clears when you close the mailbox, and translucent models classify against the water plane

- The social window: friends, ignore and `/who`, in the reference's own two-level
arrangement with its inner tabs and per-row right-click menus. The lists ride the
real wire — guid-keyed with no names, resolved through the name cache, and capped
at 50 friends / 25 ignores because those are the client's own caps — and the
ignore list does its actual job: an ignored speaker's chat is dropped silently, a
whisper additionally tells the sender, and a duel challenge is auto-declined.
Guild ships as a disabled tab, which is what a guildless character sees.
- The escape menu: ESC's last rung finally opens something. The game menu lands at
the reference's own size and ladder, and leaving works — logout and quit with the
server owning the clock (instant at an inn, refused in combat, or the 20-second
countdown), narrated by the real camp/quit dialogs. While the menu holds the
center nothing else opens, and the bag bar greys out under it.
- Items on the action bar act like items. An equipped trinket was a dead button;
the reference's use law is two stages — not equippable means use, equippable and
already worn means use in place — over its exact search order (equipment first,
then the bags, then the backpack, then the keyring; never the bank). What can go
on the bar is now the reference's own two filters, byte-read: an item with an
on-use spell or one you can equip, and no passive spells — and dropping a passive
there speaks the real client's own line, "You can't put a passive ability in the
action bar."
- A quest-starter item opens its quest instead of "The item was not found." The
question goes to the item's own guid, never through item-use — which the server
refuses for every one of the 215 quest-starter items — and refusing the quest
says what the client says, then closes the window.
- For the toolbox: a pixel pick that reports everything under the cursor all the
way back, a lens that says which render phase a draw landed in, and switches that
separate "discarded" from "lost depth" from "never drawn" — built while cornering
a flickering tent, whose fix ships in the next snapshot.
