the world map's arrow shows on zone sheets, and UIParent goes stock
- the world map's arrow shows on every zone sheet, and alt-clicking a town jumps there: the stock file creates the player arrow as a `Model` child of `WorldMapFrame` and lays a zone sheet's explored-area overlays as ARTWORK textures on `WorldMapDetailFrame` — one `(strata, level)` bucket, where the draw layer outranks the frame — and benilla drew a model's scene at the frame's own layer-0 slot, so every overlay painted over it (the continent sheet has no overlays, which is why it was the only sheet with an arrow); wow-re's carve: a layer batch carries three sub-arrays — quads, the string batch, a render-callback list — that `0x76fb00` drains in that order, and `0x76d160` registers a model's callback only for layer 2 (`0x76d17f cmp ebx,2`), so a model's scene is ARTWORK content, neither a separate pass nor a layer-0 slot; a `ModelPane` quad now keys at the ARTWORK content rank, which re-orders the pet page's happiness icon (a sibling's BACKGROUND quad) under the pane's scene — the reference's own order, harmless because the bake is transparent where the model is not; a model against a LATER-linked ARTWORK font string in the same bucket is still ordered by link stamp, named not built; and the alt-click jump, which required the topmost frame under the cursor to be `WorldMapButton` itself while the stock file parents every POI icon and blip to that button, now walks up from whatever was hit to the button and takes its rect — the map's own chrome still answers nothing (1992) - `UIParent` is the reference's own: `UIParent.xml` loads off the chain at its toc's slot, right after `WorldFrame.xml`, sourcing `UIParent.lua` and `LocaleProperties.lua` itself, and our `UIParent.xml` + `UiPanels.xml` — 3086 lines of transcribed `UIParent.lua` — are deleted; the one unbound verb the stock file ticks, `CheckReadyCheckTime`, was already 1989's; back from the reference: all sixty-six registered events and their arms (`PLAYER_CONTROL_LOST`/`_GAINED`, `RAID_ROSTER_UPDATE`, the trade-request pair, `PLAYER_SKINNED`, `GOSSIP_ENTER_CODE`), the ESC ladder as written — StaticPopup, the options window's Cancel, the game menu, `CloseMenus`, `SpellStopCasting`, `SpellStopTargeting`, `CloseAllWindows`, `ClearTarget`, else open — so ESC no longer clears a held cursor item or cancels the colour picker, two arms ours had grown that the reference does not have; the fade/flash/pulse kits walked from `UIParent`'s own OnUpdate in place of three 1×1 driver frames of ours, so a cinematic's `UIParent:Hide()` stops the walks as it does there; the managed bottom-stack positions without our `UIParent_RegisterManagedPositionListener` extension, which no shipped file registered any more; `LowHealthFrame`/`OutOfControlFrame`; and the `firstTimeLoaded` close on re-show; what stayed ours moved out — the window tab template and its OnUpdate settle (1004's async-measure adapter) and `BENILLA_FALLBACK_ICON` to `ScrollTemplates.xml`, 0561's bag verbs to `ContainerFrameAdapters`, the script log's slot row to its own file, `OptionsFrameCancel = OptionsFrameCloseButton` beside the two options aliases — and the Auction/Inspect/Macro/Talent panel rows, verbatim copies of the LoadOnDemand addons' own registrations, go; the reference also decides that the area spirit healer's dialog accepts on show with one CANCEL button, that losing control closes every window bar the reference's exceptions, and that the bottom-bar clearance reads the saved globals `SHOW_MULTI_ACTIONBAR_1`/`_2` rather than the bars' shown state; three integration binaries that kept private copies of the manifest loader use the shared one now (1988) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

MONKEY: torch-shadow point-light lane (spike) + interior hook
A point-light shadow lane over the shared rig: the nearest WMO interior fixture is promoted to a private-layer (31) shadow-casting PointLight proxy, so it casts the layer-31 world casters into a Bevy cube shadow map; the receiver hook gains `torch_shadow` (scans clusterable_objects for the shadow-enabled point light and samples fetch_point_shadow), and static_gx's INTERIOR branch calls it. Env-gated (WOW_TORCH_SHADOWS), off by default, one torch. FINDING: WMO interiors are baked-lit (INT batch class = the MOCV bake IS the room's light, including its baked shadows), so a realtime torch shadow of the STATIC architecture is redundant and doesn't show via the lit_nl path INT interiors ignore. Committed as the foundation for dynamic interior lighting (replacing the interior bake with live torch lighting + realtime shadows) — the next step.

MONKEY: shadow extension hook (benilla::shadow_hook) so receivers stay untouched
Extract the realtime directional-shadow term (fetch + edge fade + night fade) into ONE importable WGSL library, benilla::shadow_hook, and route all three receivers through it. Adding or changing the realtime shadow now touches only shadow_hook.wgsl; terrain.wgsl / wow_model.wgsl / static_gx.wgsl (the shaders that blanked the terrain when hand-edited) are no longer edited per shadow feature. Confirmed in-game (rendering unchanged). - shadow_hook.wgsl (NEW): `realtime_shadow(sample_pos, normal, view_z, cam_dist, shadow_range, night) -> factor`. No-op whenever no shadow sun exists (the only Bevy DirectionalLight benilla spawns is the rig's, so n_directional_lights == 0 exactly when shadows are off) — no shader-def toggle needed. Registered via bevy `load_shader_library!` in benilla-assets so `#import benilla::shadow_hook` resolves across crates (verified: the model pipeline composes it cleanly). - terrain / wow_model: replace the inline fetch+fade with the hook call; keep their own downstream gating (MCSH suppression + spec gate; rig-skin sample point + interior exclusion + ambient-preserving apply). Behavior-preserving. - static_gx: routed through the hook too — tree/building surfaces now get the SAME edge + night fade terrain/models already had (they lacked it before). - The duplicated SHADOW_EDGE_BAND const now lives once, in the hook.

MONKEY: keep the blob shadow for indoor units under Real Character Shadows
An indoor unit was left with NO ground shadow when characterShadows was on: the realtime sun shadow is gated out of WMO interiors (correct — no sun reaches a sealed room), and the oval blob was hidden for every unit. So indoor characters floated. Now the blob is hidden only for OUTDOOR units (where the realtime cast owns them); INDOOR units (UnitWmoRoom::room() = Some) keep the soft oval, so they stay grounded. Folded the old blanket early-return into a per-unit gate in the projection loop. Confirmed in-game. Default path (both cvars off) unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

MONKEY: shadow render-distance slider (shadowDistance)
Make the 80 yd realtime-shadow range a runtime slider (Options -> Graphics -> Shadow Distance, 40-200 yd, default 80). Confirmed in-game. - shadowDistance cvar -> VideoConfig.shadow_distance, clamped to shadow_core::SHADOW_DISTANCE_RANGE. VideoConfig drops Eq (f32 field). - shadow_core reads it: the cascade maximum_distance + the caster-collection reaches. The CascadeShadowConfig is re-fit only when the slider changes (not per frame, which would defeat the texel snap and crawl every edge). - Bridged to a benilla-world ShadowDistance resource; global_light packs it into the free row-19 light lane so the receiver EDGE FADE fades at the cascade's actual max distance, whatever the slider is set to (terrain _wmo_fog[1].z / model wmo_fog_params.z). The fixed SHADOW_RANGE consts are gone. - Options: a deferred slider row (commits on Apply so a drag doesn't re-fit the cascade + recollect casters every tick).

MONKEY: shadow_core framework + moving sun + edge/night fade
Refactor the shadow feature into a shared framework + two equal lanes, and add two visual improvements. Confirmed in-game. - shadow_core.rs (NEW): the shared rig both lanes plug into — one directional sun on the private layer, the camera-layer plumbing, the shadow map, the invisible proxy material, the sun aiming, and the shared caster-collection helpers. Lanes coordinate through a ShadowDemand/ShadowFrame handshake (rig runs first each frame, publishes the frame; lanes declare demand + build their casters after). character_shadow and world_shadow are now EQUAL, independent lane plugins that depend only on shadow_core, never on each other — add, remove or reorder either freely. - character_shadow.rs: slimmed to just the CREATURE caster lane. - world_shadow.rs: the WORLD lane — static_gx solid + alpha-tested foliage + a per-frame entity-resident environment caster (the two entity casters were one shared mesh before; splitting them is what makes the lanes independent). - Moving sun: the shadow basis now tracks the VISIBLE celestial sun (which genuinely rises/sets) instead of the near-fixed lighting sun, so shadows sweep through the day. Elevation clamped to ~18..65 deg so a set/zenith sun never inverts or degenerates the basis; azimuth preserved. - Edge fade: the realtime shadow lightens toward the cascade's max distance so it fades in rather than popping at the resolve boundary. - Night fade: shadow strength ramps by the real sun height (packed into the free fog_params.z light lane), so shadows soften and vanish at night; the baked MCSH terrain shadows fade back IN at night for the world lane, keyed off the same.

the loading screen lets nothing through, and the micro buttons go stock
- units could be hovered through the loading screen — the sword cursor gave it away: the world pick chain has no state gate, one of fifty-one input sites, so a gate per consumer is a rule that regresses; the cut is at the source instead — one `PreUpdate` system empties the button planes, drains the raw queues, zeroes the accumulators and blanks the window's cursor position while the cover is up (the alt-tabbed-away state every consumer already handles); a press under the cover never happened, a held button is released once, a gesture in flight is cancelled, and a wall test counts the channels; the reference does the same — its raise registers a veto stub (`0x406a50`) on five event-bus categories — and one gap closed with it: the reference parks the plain arrow and drops any item overlay before the screen goes up, where benilla kept a held item's icon over the loading art (1986, 1990) - the micro-button row is the reference's own `MainMenuBarMicroButtons.xml`, our transcription deleted — no engine verb was missing, and the whole engine-side cost is one alias, `SoundOptionsFrame = OptionsFrame`, because the stock file reads the reference's three options windows and ours is the one window for all three; what the stock file brings back: `UpdateTalentButton`'s own −2 re-seat (the five buttons after the talent button sit 1 px further right — the reference's own pixel), the raw binding token in the hover label (`(C)`, `(SHIFT-P)`), the sixty-second talent-button pulse on a ding while the sheet is closed (0304's scope-out retired), the keyring arm, and "Abilities" on the spellbook hover for a character with no spells; `BenillaActionBarArt_SeatAbove` goes with the file — a child is born one level above its parent (`SetParent` `0x76ab65`), the seat it set by hand (1987) - hovering the player arrow on the stock world map showed an empty tooltip: narrower than 4:3 the map is scaled under 1, and our `MouseIsOver` had dropped the reference's division by `GetEffectiveScale` as "always 1" — the frame getters answer in the frame's own units, `GetCursorPosition` in the screen's; the division is back, and the region getters divide by their owner's scale too; and the ready check times out: the stock `UIParent.xml` ticks `CheckReadyCheckTime` every frame, the one unbound name in that file's way, so the mechanism behind it is built — a 30 s deadline and a "has not answered" flag per roster entry, the leader getting no popup while members print "%s has initiated a ready check" and get it, and on expiry `RAID_MEMBERS_AFK` with the unanswered names or `READY_CHECK_NO_AFK`, the last answer closing the check at once (1985, 1989) - a review of the floor grind closed eight stale-input and bypassed-side-effect siblings the gates had left open: a never-placed card places on a still frame, the dormant-emitter skip sits below the emitter's lifetime blocks, PVS changes (not only spawns) un-still the gates, the appear ramp's retirement and a far-side unmark come due, a host born under a parked camera is judged, the projection counts as a still input, a fresh palette range is zeroed, the stable feed runs once more after a close, the unit publisher's viewer query is filtered, solo UI materials are reused by key, and the draw-list cache compares exactly; and three doc links the chat window's stock move (1948) left dangling point at what replaced them — the colour table and the tell ring are the stock Lua's now — which is what had the doc-links gate (1925) red on main Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

still frames skip settled work, and a guild can design its tabard
- on a still frame the world stops redoing settled work — each cut an exact gate, measured with the process pinned to the efficiency cores, where the main thread IS the frame: point lookups go through the water index, a terrain column tests its cell's four fan triangles, not the chunk's 256 (−1.3 ms), the flare march resolves its tile once, the static-world publish and light blob write only on change, billboards, emitter gates (off the new-portal edge), doodad-anim verdicts, the visibility walk, the unit publisher (its filter a named type), a rampless unit's alpha and the stable feed skip when nothing moved, the rig evaluator reuses its scratch, dormant emitters skip their step, child wiring visits pending emitters only, the shade map persists, and the terrain streamer skips its walk once settled; alone parked 25.4 → 21.6–22.8 ms of main thread, 32 → 36–38 fps there with nothing on screen (1979, 1982)
- the UI tick got the same treatment: a solo run's colour rides the material, not the mesh — the glow pulse's one `Assets<Mesh>` write a frame had armed bevy's asset-changed probes over ~44 k `Mesh3d` rows (−1.0 ms); script object ids index a dense map instead of a hash, where every scripted method call starts (−0.7 ms); the draw list is fingerprint-cached, walked every frame and sorted only when it changed (the list a named type); and the instrument that made the gates count at all: the first battery read flat until the probe printed how many frames each gate input had read as changed — `noisy=[cam:0,dbg:299,view:0,win:0,claim:0]` — one dev system took `&mut` on `DebugState` every frame to test a flag, so bevy marked it changed on 299 of 300 frames and silently disarmed every gate reading `debug.is_changed()`; it reads the flag first now, and the counters stay on the probe line (1982)
- two of the new gates were wrong the day they landed and are fixed in the same snapshot: the streamer's settled skip engaged the frame `complete` flipped, with the retained pass still baking the new cells, and froze the undrawn count `presentable()` reads above zero — the loading screen stayed up for good after a `.tele`; it now waits for a paced, presentable, complete world and keeps that count fresh; and the still-frame gates read the camera's `GlobalTransform`, which moves only after propagation — which runs after them — so a teleport frame carried every host's pre-snap verdict across the snap (a lamppost glow due to park kept its clock, over-bright after the `.tele`); the gates read the seat's own `Transform` write too (1982)
- a guild master can design the guild's tabard: the reference's own `TabardFrame.xml` joins the manifest (benilla never had the window), opened only from the wire — the click ladder's TabardDesigner arm now sends `MSG_TABARDVENDOR_ACTIVATE` and the Battlemaster arm its own hello (1861's two deviations retire); the `TabardModel` method table runs over five ints bounded by the `.rdata` table `{170, 17, 6, 17, 51}`, the design previews on the player's own body so the pane and the world show one look, and `Save` runs the fourteen pre-flight checks in the reference's order; the world frame is the reference's own `WorldFrame.xml` too — the framerate readout is live on CTRL-R — and the carve settled its kind: a `Frame` to Lua, a one-shot type, the sole tenant of stratum WORLD, and not "over the UI" when hovered, so world clicks and camera look stay live while its scripts fire (1977, 1983, 1984)

- the minimap cluster and the battleground list are the reference's own `Minimap.xml` and `BattlefieldFrame.xml`, ours deleted, and the sixteen engine names the static probe found unbound are built, not stubbed: the battleground list and queue family (the as-group join refused client-side with no packet when the map's `MaxPlayers` is below the group), the bodyless `CMSG_BATTLEFIELD_STATUS` on world enter — benilla never sent it, so a queue joined before a reconnect was invisible — the 5.5556 yd `BATTLEFIELDS_CLOSED` leash, and the meeting-stone pair over the `0x295` five-way table with both asymmetries; the ping's lifetime is the stock Lua's now (held 5 s, faded 0.5 s), `GetPingPosition` answers two numbers always — our nil was a Lua error on every frame of the stock `Minimap_OnUpdate` — and the map-change drop the reference never had is gone (1974)
- the world map is the reference's own `WorldMapFrame.xml`, our transcription deleted; built for it: the arrow-frame family (an anonymous `Model` child at its 33.6 px footprint, drawn app-side as the minimap's own arrow sprite through one shared constant), the battleground position family over `MSG_BATTLEGROUND_PLAYER_POSITIONS` both ways (the reference's 5000 ms request throttle), and `GetPlayerMapPosition` resolving `raid1..raid40` where it knew only the party (B320); `SetupFullscreenScale` — the engine binding `0x48c270` the map's and the cinematic frame's OnShow call, which our map had stood in for with Lua — is bound to the carved law `min(0.75 · aspect, 1)` off the configured aspect, written through the frame's own `SetScale` (1.0 at 4:3 and wider, 0.9375 at 5:4); a hovered POI writes the map's own area label, not the tooltip; named gap: `WorldMapPing` draws nothing yet (1980, 1981)
- the tutorial frame is the reference's own `TutorialFrame.xml`, over a tutorial system benilla never had: two bit banks filled from `SMSG_TUTORIAL_FLAGS` — the fire-once bank `TriggerTutorial` reads and sets (never a send) and the acknowledged bank `FlagTutorial` writes and sends; there is no tutorial CVar in the binary (210 `CVar::Register` sites censused), so "disable tutorials" is every bit acknowledged; the sites this app can produce are wired (the world-enter Welcome cascade, the level-up arm, item pushes, the loot sparkle, the meeting-stone and battleground arms), the rest named; the loader learned `<TitleRegion>` — the stock frame's drag handle, a region that emits no quad; and the `TabardModel` widget kind arrives ahead of its window, five ints bounded by the `.rdata` table `{170, 17, 6, 17, 51}` and the constant 100 000 tabard cost (1976, 1977)
- the chat window drew as an opaque white plate: the chat-cache loader, gated on `InWorld` alone, restored into the boot VM 130 ms before the deferred entry load filled it, and its per-VM memo then blocked the restore that would have reached the real frames — the plate the stock Lua tints black stayed the XML's white; between the entry edge and the load there is now no VM in the world (the edge parks the boot VM, the load takes it back), so no in-world feed pushes into a VM with no interface; the perf pill reads `59 fps 7.0 ms 17.3 cpu` — the MAIN thread's milliseconds in full text and the process-wide sum dim, because the sum of every thread's CPU time had been read as a frame time (a raid read 17 on it at a solid 60 with the main thread at 7); and `WOW_PROBE_UI_ONE_TEX=1` is a pricing lever, never a look, for the draw-count ceiling a UI atlas would reach before one is built (1978, 1954)

the tooltip and five windows go stock, and the battleground keeps score
- the tooltip is the reference's own file: `GameTooltip.xml` loads off the chain, ours is deleted, and every verb it calls was already bound, so this is a plain swap; retired with it: the `$parentThicken` plate fill that thickened the plate from the art's ~73% to ~84% opacity — the reference's plate is the raw `UI-Tooltip-Background` tint, and that is what ships; the one engine fact the transcription had been hiding: the reference's instance declares no size, and a frame with one anchor and no size resolves to NO rect under the reference's own layout law — our declared size had been a harness crutch (1968); and the dressing room goes stock with `<DressUpModel>` as a widget kind (factory `0x495c00`): a `PlayerModel` plus its own `Undress`/`Dress`/`TryOn`, where `Undress` strips the body and not the hands, and Close is read off the window since the stock OnHide queues nothing (1969) - the mail window and the auction house are the reference's own: `MailFrame.xml` loads off the chain and brings the stationery picker, invoice pane and autocomplete ours had left out; the stationery family is built off wow-re's carve over a list computed off `Stationery.dbc` rows × the player's bags (`0x622270`, not the bank); the selection rides `CMSG_SEND_MAIL` field 6 and a send with none silently aborts; its two events fire where the client fires them (1970); `Blizzard_AuctionUI` loads on demand from the `AUCTION_HOUSE_SHOW` arm, and three root fixes its Lua surfaced: `GetAuctionItemClasses()` is static — read at the addon's load, before any session, so the class tree is a login-scoped push; `SetAuctionCompareItem` (`0x535d70`) on the vendor compare's one body; `NEW_AUCTION_UPDATE` resets the create form; its dressing-room pane shares the app's one room (1971) - the battleground keeps score: `WorldStateFrame.xml` loads off the chain and ours is deleted; the stock file is three things where ours was one: the readout, the capture bars, and the battleground scoreboard this client never had, built off wow-re's round — `MSG_PVP_LOG_DATA` both ways (throttled to 5000 ms client-side, `0x4aa170`) and `CMSG_LEAVE_BATTLEFIELD`; eleven score verbs over a board the app pushes, where the filter is a SORT, not a compaction — team first, killing blows descending, deaths ascending, honor descending, name — so the filtered count shrinks while `GetBattlefieldScore` still reaches every wire row; `HIDE_OUTDOOR_WORLD_STATE` joins the options uvar block, a capture point is a bar, and the scoreboard and battlefield-minimap toggles become bound specs at the install's own `SHIFT-SPACE`/`SHIFT-M` (1972) - the trade skill and craft windows go stock as `Blizzard_TradeSkillUI`/`Blizzard_CraftUI` on demand, from the reference's own UIParent arms; our two transcriptions are deleted; the four item-link verbs are built off wow-re's carve on the client's link builder (`0x52adb0`) — zero values on any miss, `GetTradeSkillReagentItemLink` raising Blizzard's own typo'd Usage, kept, and `GetCraftItemLink` the `|Henchant:` link in fixed white; `SetTextColor`'s channels coerce nil to 0 on FontString, Font and Button where ours had raised (1973); and the Inspect, Talent, Macro and Raid addons load on demand — `benilla.toc` lists no `Interface\AddOns` row, and below level 10 the talent addon is never even loaded; the gates walk every reached addon and found `Blizzard_GMSurveyUI`'s four engine verbs nothing answers, reachable only through `GMSURVEY_DISPLAY`, which nothing fires (1889; 1967) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

coins ride the cursor, and the trade window and combat text go stock
- coins ride the cursor: `MoneyFrame.lua`/`.xml` load off the player's chain, and the stock kit reads the cursor's coins at load, so the money cursor — payload mode 2, the copper at `[0xb4e2f0]` — is the engine's: `PickupPlayerMoney` puts coins on the cursor and the purse is never debited, and `CoinPickupFrame.xml`, the shift-click coin dialog nothing of ours had ever answered, joins; wow-re's round then set the law: the pickup raises on a non-number and refuses silently on zero, lost control and more than the purse; `AddTradeMoney` folds the coins into the offer as an absolute `CMSG_SET_TRADE_GOLD` gated on the purse; the send-mail setters and `GetCoinIcon` answer as the bytes do; the coinage-change reflex trims an offer the purse no longer covers; and the four send-mail pickup/drop verbs the stock table names do not exist in 5875, so they are not built (1962, 1965) - the trade window is the reference's own file: `TradeFrame.xml` + `TradeFrame.lua` off the chain, ours deleted; `GameTooltip:SetTradePlayerItem`/`SetTradeTargetItem` (`0x5341e0`/`0x534410`) render the slot's item the way the loot slot's is, and `TRADE_PLAYER_ITEM_CHANGED`/`TRADE_TARGET_ITEM_CHANGED` — which the stock file repaints one slot on, and nothing had fired — fire per changed slot beside `TRADE_UPDATE`; the stock file brings the chain's own `MoneyInputFrame`, a TARGET_TRADE `SmallMoneyFrame`, `ItemButtonTemplate` slots and the enchant slot's own wording — "Item not yet modified" where ours had read "Will Not Be Traded"; the wire's enchant id is not carried into the slot yet, so the tooltip shows the item without its enchant (1966) - the dialogs' verbs, as the bytes define them: nine of the ten stock `StaticPopup.lua` bindings 1960 had left named are built off wow-re's round with their packets, events and UIParent arms — the bare trade pair, `ForceLogout`, the instance-boot timer (whole seconds), the area spirit healer's accept/cancel/time, `AcceptBattlefieldPort` out of a three-slot queue `SMSG_BATTLEFIELD_STATUS` fills, `CancelMeetingStoneRequest`, and the pet trainer's pair as the talent wipe's twin, latch for latch — `SMSG_PET_UNLEARN_CONFIRM` latches and asks, `ConfirmPetUnlearn` sends behind the money gate, `CheckPetUntrainerDist` reads the leash; not built, named: the healer's proximity scan (`0x4923b0`: 20 yd to acquire, 22 to retain), so no healer is cached yet, and `ReplaceTradeEnchant`, which rides trade-slot enchant targeting this engine does not build (1963) - the scrolling combat text is the reference's own `Blizzard_CombatText`, LoadOnDemand off the chain: our transcription is deleted, and the addon loads through `UIParentLoadAddOn` at the reference's own sites; the family's fourteen defaults move to the options file where the reference keeps them, because a LoadOnDemand addon cannot define the options that decide whether it loads (1964); and the Looking-for-Group pair is what the bytes define, correcting 1959's flag: `SetLookingForGroup` takes three (type, entry) pairs and a comment, packs each slot as `(type << 24) & entry` — an AND (`0x4e9713`), so every admissible input stores zero — and sends `CMSG_SET_LOOKING_FOR_GROUP` only when the commit changed something; `GetLookingForGroup` answers three nilable slot names then the comment, never 1|nil; and the stock 1.12.1 UI never calls either — both call sites sit in an XML comment (1961) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

every dialog is the reference's own, and the trainer loads on demand
- every dialog is the reference's own: `StaticPopup.xml` + `StaticPopup.lua` load off the player's chain, and 0308's engine with its 37 dialogs leaves `UiPanels.xml`; all 76 of the reference's dialogs are the stock table's, 28 of which no file of ours had ever registered (the resurrect family among them); the nine hidden listener frames that existed only because benilla once had no `UIParent_OnEvent` come home to it verbatim from UIParent.lua, and the seven files that were nothing but a dialog and its driver are deleted; what the swap surfaced: the reference capitalises the countdown's unit word ("5 Minutes until release") where ours had lowercased it, and ESC in the typed delete confirm's box is swallowed — the entry names no escape handler; arms for events this engine never fires (PLAYER_SKINNED, TRADE_REQUEST) wait on their feeds rather than being armed blind (1960)
- the social window and the unit menus are the reference's own files: `FriendsFrame.xml` loads off the chain and our transcription is deleted — its twelve dialogs re-homed, `FRIENDLIST_SHOW` fired as the answer to an explicit `ShowFriends()`, and `Get`/`SetLookingForGroup` a client-side flag until their bodies are carved; `UnitPopup.xml` loads off the chain, our row catalogue and its driver frame go, and nine verbs are built for it — `HasFullControl` off the player-control flag the reference reads at `0x51a158`, `UnitPlayerOrPetInParty`/`InRaid` over a new unit owner, and the six pet one-shots, each pressing the bar's own reaction or command slot word through the same latch and `CMSG_PET_ACTION`, confirmed by wow-re's carve; the Guild Leave/Promote confirms 1958 believed nothing registered were our social file's all along, and the duplicate went with it (1958, 1959)
- the trainer loads on demand: our `TrainerFrame.xml` is deleted and no row replaces it — `Blizzard_TrainerUI` loads off the player's own chain through the reference's `ClassTrainerFrame_LoadUI`, and the LoadOnDemand `Blizzard_*` addons are registry rows read off the chain; the timing IS the mechanism: the list builder writes the state-filter mask to 3 on every `SMSG_TRAINER_LIST` (`0x4d75d9`) and the stock addon pushes its saved filters exactly once, on its own ADDON_LOADED — which fires on the session's first trainer, after that packet, so the saved filters win that open and an eager load would never have applied them; the loader holds an anchor to a sibling not built yet and applies it once the subtree exists; and `UNIT_FLAGS` fires only on a change between two snapshots — wow-re's trio found the per-field watch bridge runs no notify pass on the create leg, correcting 1953 (1957)
- the additive window, built and withdrawn the same hour: under `BLEND_ADD` every additive particle draw commutes with every other, so same-key additive draws can be regrouped exactly — built in the effect lane's merge walk and measured on the crowd rig (Stormwind, forty partybots): the adjacency merge already folds about half the effect items and the regroup found two more folds in a frame of ninety-three, so the pre-regroup walk is what runs; what stays: an `fx=` items/merged census on the FPS probe line, a `DRESS_PART` line per drawn part of the self body on the dress census, and the regression the A/B uncovered: 1948's stock chat migration dropped the drain's plain-line sender, so every `WOW_PROBE_CHAT` rig — the crowd rig's forty `.partybot add`s among them — had gone silent on the server; a probe's slash-less line reaches the wire as SAY again (1955)

- the pet action bar is the reference's own `PetActionBarFrame.xml`; our 559-line transcription is deleted, and the reference's bar brings what it had left out — the slide, the Ctrl-held and locked gates on show/hide, the hotkey pass whose string-versus-number comparison leaves every corner empty — with the three pet dialogs moved verbatim into the popup slice; one adapter draws the autocast shine (the reference's `<Model>` draws nothing in this engine, so each button gets the token-texture shine at the reference's own 1.2); the stock file registers four events nothing fired, built rather than listed — `PET_BAR_UPDATE_COOLDOWN` when the ten cooldown triples alone move, `PLAYER_CONTROL_LOST`/`GAINED` on the edge of the control flag (`0x4958e0`'s change-gated fire), `PLAYER_FARSIGHT_FOCUS_CHANGED` on the edge of the farsight descriptor, and `UNIT_FLAGS` on a change of the raw flags (its exact fire law a dispatched question) (1953) - the skills tab is the reference's own `SkillFrame.xml` at its slot between ReputationFrame and HonorFrame; our 874-line transcription is deleted, the `UNLEARN_SKILL` dialog moves verbatim into the popup slice, and `CancelSkillUps` is built — the page's live Close button calls it before hiding, so every close reaches it; it is the reset leg of the temp-point table (`0x4d3e30`, no arguments, no returns) over a table this client keeps empty by construction, so the reset moves nothing, which is the binding's whole effect on this data; `AddSkillUp`, `RemoveSkillUp` and `BuySkillTier` sit on buttons the reference shows only for skill points or step/rank costs no 1.12 server sends and stay named as open gaps; and the expand tab's fit is the reference's load-time law (`GetTextWidth()+45` once, in OnLoad), so the transcription's zero-measure guard and re-fit are gone (1956) - a 45-bot Blackrock raid circling with sound on holds 60 fps with the main thread at 6–7 ms while the HUD's ms readout says 17–18: that number is the sum of every thread's CPU per frame (main, render, compute pool, audio), not the frame time — the raid costs +6 ms spread over four threads with no thread owning it; two suspects refuted by measurement: mimalloc as the process allocator (interleaved: no change on any thread, reverted the same hour) and page faults (59 a frame on the probe, tens of microseconds, not the render thread's 2.1 ms of kernel time, which is the Metal driver's own work and scales with draws); so the probe counts draws per phase family (transparent outnumbers opaque, mostly the buff wave's particles and nameplates) and `WOW_PROBE_SHARED_SKIN=1` prices cross-body instancing before it is built: nothing moved, because bevy instances only identical meshes and a geared body's merged geoset set is its own mesh (1954) - three fixes, each removing work a 15 s sample named: booth cameras skip cluster assignment (no bevy light ever reaches a booth, and the default config rebuilt an empty cluster grid per booth view per frame — 0.2 ms of the raid's main thread), the rig palette's watermark clone reuses the row buffer from two publishes ago instead of calloc'ing the 650 KB table every publish (safe because the GPU only ever receives dirty ranges), and prop probes upload the dirty span rather than every allocated row (circling a city streams props in and out most frames, and each change re-sent hundreds of KB for one row); no bucket of the main thread's profile is above a millisecond — the raid's +2.5 ms there is forty-five bodies' worth of every per-entity lane at ~55 µs a body, and the one lever left that is all ours, one texture array per body folding ~9 draws to ~3, is sized at ~1.5 ms and not started (1954) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the chat and spellbook go stock, and hidden props park their meshes

- 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> |

a bot walks on the ground, and a stunned cast never leaves the client
- a bot floating a body-height above the ground in mid-stride (B357): cmangos's Playerbots moves its bots as Player objects under `SMSG_MONSTER_MOVE`, and our ground clamp skipped anything that was not a Unit, so a splined Player kept the wire Z verbatim — and a spline is a straight chord, which over a hollow leaves the body in the air; kind is not a question the reference asks (`0x616620` runs every registered mover once per frame, reading only its own flag word), so one rule grounds every Unit plus a Player from the moment a server spline first moves it, never the body we steer; and a re-sent identical wire pose no longer leaves a unit floating (1921); the body we STEER is a mover too — the reference hands a ride's spline displacement to the same vertical-zeroing step as walking, so the spline owns XY and facing and the ground owns Z, closing a +0.47 yd gap at mid-chord on an Elwynn slope, endpoint included (1927) - the client refuses a stunned, silenced or pacified cast itself, in the requirement validator `0x6094f0` whose mounted and moving legs we already model, before any packet — and the three arms are not symmetric: STUNNED refuses everything, SILENCED and PACIFIED run only where `Spell.dbc PreventionType` declares them, so a silence stops casts and leaves melee abilities alone and a pacify does the reverse; the leg sits above the mounted block and below the equipped-item requirement, so stunned and missing the weapon you are told about the weapon; `PreventionType` is column 165, Auto Shot alone telling it from its look-alike neighbour; the preflight banner splits movement blockers from ability blockers, since a disarm or a pacify touches no movement gate; and the refusal sink is an explicit parameter rather than a ladder field, because a resource reachable twice from one system panics on the first live frame (1903) - a disarm greys what needs the hidden hand: the spell equipped-item test is `0x5f0c50`, walking all 23 equipment slots, rejecting a deprecated or genuinely broken item, and taking its slot mask from `AttributesEx3` (main-hand-only, off-hand-only, else every slot) — DISARMED strips the hidden hand's bit out of that mask, so a main-hand-only ability whose one allowed hand is the one the disarm took has an empty mask and dies, Heroic Strike greyed with its tooltip line red; using a worn weapon while disarmed answers `ERR_CANT_USE_DISARMED`, the client's own refusal at rung 15 of the item-use ladder's 20, above the bind-confirm arm and never a bag click (1903); and two stale claims go — `UNIT_FLAG_STUNNED` no longer says the idle selectors bail on it (0889 had refuted that at the bytes), and the charter's `ShowPetition` arm is rung #9 of that same ladder, read rather than reasoned - `UpdateSpells()` is twelve bytes and all of them are the event: it ends in a jump into the event signal with 0x104 = `SPELLS_CHANGED` in hand, whose repaint is FrameXML's alone, so a no-op would not have been faithful and our own repainting stand-in was wrong in both directions at once; it fires synchronously as the reference's does, at the cost of a fire-path refactor rather than a next-tick queue; `PlayerHasSpells()` is a hard-coded 1, no branch, no store read, pinned to answer 1 on an empty spellbook, where a plausible implementation diverges silently (1924); and three integration harnesses loaded every document against an empty base, so a self-sourcing chain file loaded as an empty shell with every handler missing — none of their lists could fail, so the fix lands with a guard watched failing first, `FadingFrame.xml`, one relative script reference and nothing else (1923) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

an item on the cursor is a sale, and an animation's sound has a place
- right-clicking a vendor with an item on the cursor sells it: `0x5df5d0` asks `GetCursorItem` before anything else and a non-zero answer takes the arm to `CMSG_SELL_ITEM` instead of `CMSG_LIST_INVENTORY`, where benilla sent the list unconditionally — the whole stack, to the clicked vendor, with no merchant-window gate anywhere in the arm; the clear is `SetCursorItem(0, …)` rather than `ClearCursor`, which fires `CURSOR_UPDATE` and leaves the source slot greyed until the server's inventory update (1914); and the NPC you are talking to is not clickable: `0x5f0130` refuses a right-click on the NPC whose window is already open, against a global with exactly two writers — the interaction setter, whose fourteen callers are every one a window opener, and its clear — so the first click always gets through and no double-click is eaten, where benilla re-sent the arm's opcode on every click (1866) - a Hated or Hostile questgiver's `!` now disappears, every `!` blinks off and back on when you resurrect, and the minimap no longer dots a corpse, your own pet or an untrackable unit: the sweep tears down on HOSTILITY, not on the flag — `0x5eb134` is a convergent block reached from two branches, so three incompatible readings had each seen one path — and an escort giver's `!` clearing with its flag is the field watch instead, which B257 now rests on; the dots gain `0x4eaa90`'s three preconditions (1906); the quest log's rebuild is all-or-nothing — the reference makes every rebuild a no-op until its template misses are answered, so a cold log shows empty and then lands in one step, never our `"..."` row per in-flight quest — sorted level then title, case-insensitively, with the `id == 0` group first under the reference's own "Missing header! (quest designers)"; and `GetQuestLogTitle`'s `isHeader`/`isCollapsed` answer 1/nil, not booleans - an animation event has a place, not just a time: the M2 event kernel (`0x719370`) places each fired key through its bone, and benilla carried the when and the what and never the where, so every animation-event sound played at the model root — 149 of 244 `$DSL` records sit off their model's origin, out to 67.6 yd on `Maraudon_Waterfall01.m2` — and the point belongs to the record, not the tag, since 75 models author one tag twice; doodad, GameObject and shake sounds now sound where the key is (1904); and the unit dispatcher's arms do not agree about the point they are handed — footsteps and emotes at the event point (the footstep's material foley stays at the origin), `$TRD` at the origin, `$CSD` at attachment 17 rather than its head-mounted records, `$CSS` at the event point on a hit and attachment 1 on a miss — with `0x623b90`'s attachment-else-bias resolver transcribed table and all (1915) - `GetSkillLineInfo` out of range answers the reference's thirteen-value tuple, numbers in the rank slots, not a single nil — the stock skill window adds two of those slots unguarded straight off `SetSelectedSkill(0)`, so one nil raises the moment it drives us; one shape serves every out-of-range case because the bounds test at `0x4d3675` is a single unsigned compare, and our source had asserted the opposite (1919); the outbound wire is traced by name (`out`, mirroring `in`), a line pushed only after a successful write — a 5-second visit to the Goldshire poster reads as 87 lines (1901); the binding shape gate seats a player and checks the `Unit*` verbs it had been skipping, coverage 220 → 249, all agreeing with the reference (1911); and a UI capture scenario opts the UI in itself instead of photographing a UI-less world and exiting 0, the opt-in answering `false` in a player build that has no harness Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the help window is the reference's own, and a ding carries nine gains
- the help window is the reference's own `HelpFrame.xml`, and ours was less than half its size, so this is mostly arrival: the category list, the per-category GM and harassment pages, the stuck page, the bug report, the PvP policy line; four things we had built go with the swap — one-click filing from Home, the Home unstick button, the downed-queue refusal message, and ticket abandonment, a capability loss rather than a look change, since `AbandonTicket` exists in neither the binding table nor the 1.12 FrameXML corpus and any return of it goes on top of the stock window; `GMSURVEY_DISPLAY` arrives with no producer, a real 1.12 event (`SignalEvent` `0x5e797b`) whose whole UI is a LoadOnDemand addon not on our chain; and the stock file needs two orderings ours did not, the micro-button row before its GM status ask and the buff frame before its repoll timer (1889, superseding 1687)
- the cast bar, the action-button regions and the font registry are the reference's own files too: our `CastingBar.xml` was `CastingBarFrame.xml` under another name, with the literal "Failed" where the reference reads the `FAILED` GlobalString (1886); `ActionButtonTemplate.xml` seats above our `ActionBar.xml` because the later-registered template wins, and it declares zero scripts, so the regions migrate while the handlers stay ours until `ActionButton.lua`'s verbs do (1887); `Fonts.xml` is manifest entry 0, all 51 fonts match by name, and its one real difference, `ITEM_QUALITY_COLORS`, moves to UIParent where the reference declares it (1888); the harnesses were the real cost — those reading our files off disk could not name a chain file and now read through the manifest's own rule — and the event-producer gate, having cried wolf at the cast bar's `SPELLCAST_INTERRUPTED` fired through a variable, now matches the fired tuple's shape
- of the 189 events benilla fires, three are not in the client — `BAG_UPDATE_DELAYED` (a Classic Era name), `LOOT_UPDATE` and `UPDATE_LOOT_ROLL` (invented here, no listener anywhere) — found against the reference binary's own string table, and a gate now fails any fire of a name the client cannot dispatch unless it wears a `BENILLA_` prefix (1883); two payloads the reference gives that we did not: `UNIT_HAPPINESS` carries its unit token, without which no `UNIT_*` consumer reads it, and `CHARACTER_POINTS_CHANGED` carries the point deltas `ChatFrame.lua` compares unguarded, so nil raised (1884); and `PLAYER_LEVEL_UP` carries all nine — level, health and mana gain, talent points (not on the wire: the client derives `(newLevel >= 10) ? 1 : 0` at `0x5e407c`) and the five stat gains — matched to the ding by level, a demotion's absent gains sent as zeros since a nil raises where a zero reads as no line
- the chain gap report could not run — one of its six probes had no player seated where a stock addon formats `UnitName("player")` at load, the other five each carrying an identical copy-pasted seed — and the repaired instrument prices each window's cost: 13 stock files load clean with nothing missing (the action bars, the cast bar, the fonts, the help, friends, game-menu and sound-options windows among them) and the near ones name their missing verb, with "loads clean" still not "swapped" (1885); and `UpdateNameplates`, recorded as the missing engine verb blocking the UIParent keystone, is FrameXML — defined in `UIOptionsFrame.lua`, absent from the binding table, its whole body four nameplate verbs that are already ours — so it is twelve lines transcribed into our options frame, the reference's own Show-then-Hide no-op included (1890 corrects 1878)

the raid and reputation panes go stock, and a faction header folds
- the raid and reputation panes are the reference's own files: two manifest lines replace our `RaidFrame.xml` (83 of 84 frame names were already the reference's; the tear-off pullouts arrive) and one replaces our `ReputationFrame.xml`; the raid swap surfaced a loader defect (a font object inherited one level down was the 26 unexplained warnings), rehomed `RaidFrame_LoadUI` and two popup dialogs, and reproduces one reference DEFECT: an emptied lockout list keeps its last row painted (1874); the reputation swap moved the WATCH BAR out of `ActionBar.xml`, where it would have shadowed the chain's own, and exposed an ENGINE gap: `CollapseFactionHeader`/`ExpandFactionHeader` fire `UPDATE_FACTION` (`0x4d5dab`) and ours fired nothing, so with the stock pane repainting on that event alone, a fold painted nothing and the header kept its minus — invisible while our own file repainted itself (1875) - a wanted poster is a questgiver on the wire as a creature is, and benilla never asked about one; the RE round came back in two halves: the reference DOES send `CMSG_QUESTGIVER_STATUS_QUERY` for a GameObject, gated on `GAMEOBJECT_FLAGS` bit 2, seen in 20 of 62 sniffed sessions — and it can never render the answer (the status handler's typemask excludes a GameObject, its status slot lies past the object's end, and no poster, sign or plaque carries attachment 18); vmangos DOES answer, so the sweep gains a GameObject arm on the reference's own gate and the apply side refuses a non-unit guid, without which a gold `!` would hang over a poster no 1.12 client draws; two shipped claims fall with it (`0x5eb3c0` is the FULL re-query sweep; a status never suppresses a GameObject's minimap dot), and `WOW_PROBE_GOQUEST` at the Goldshire wanted poster reads the server's 1 then 5, both refused (1872) - the money entry comes off the chain: Trade, Mail and Auction switch to the reference's `MoneyInputFrameTemplate` and its verbs, and our `BenillaMoneyInput_*` kit retires — it was the exact answer while benilla fired `OnTextChanged` synchronously inside `SetText`, and the engine now raises it deferred and coalesced, matching `0x77d3e0` (1831), so the reference's `expectChanges` guard works and our bracket flag was a duplicate; most of the 430 deleted lines are verbatim art — all three windows carried an inline copy of the template's three edit boxes, AuctionFrame a whole second copy; one visible change: TradeFrame now makes the reference's own `MoneyInputFrame_SetMode(this, "compact")` call, which tightens the trade money boxes (Gold 58→56 wide, Silver's offset 26→22, Copper's 16→11), and two stale claims in the kit's comments are corrected, and a verb nothing called goes (1882) - the `UIFrameFlash` family is transcribed — six FrameXML names from `UIParent.lua`, which we do not load — unblocking SpellBookFrame and HelpFrame, which called it into silence; re-arming a flashing frame is a RETURN and `-1` flashes forever (1879); UIParent is recounted — `UpdateNameplates` and the `*_Show`/`*_Hide` family around it are FrameXML, not engine, missed by a survey that skipped the LoadOnDemand addons — so its engine surface is four verbs, not a wall: `GetLocale` answers `enUS`, `IsMacClient` answers nil (the whole verb on the PC build), and `CheckReadyCheckTime` and `RequestBattlefieldPositions` are the two it waits on (1880); and `BasicControls.xml` comes off the chain by pure deletion — ours differed by nothing but line-wrapping and one comment — with `FailedAddOnLoad` and `UIParentLoadAddOn` moving to `UIParent.xml`, their reference home, below their four callers (1881) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

a body lands with a thud, and twelve lists scroll again

MONKEY: split shadows into independent character + world lanes
Rework the realtime shadow feature into two INDEPENDENT, plug-and-play modules over one shared rig, plus alpha-tested foliage: - character_shadow.rs (was player_shadow.rs): owns the shared rig — one directional "sun" on private layer 31, the camera-layer plumbing, the shadow map, the invisible proxy material — and the per-frame CHARACTER lane. The rig lights up whenever EITHER lane is on. - world_shadow.rs (NEW, self-contained): the WORLD lane — the retained static_gx world (trees + buildings, cast solid) and alpha-tested foliage (leaf canopies, one caster per leaf texture). Removing the feature is deleting this module + its two calls + the cvar. Two separate cvars, each on its own Options row: `characterShadows` (players/NPCs/creatures/mounts, replacing the oval blob) and `worldShadows` (the static world + foliage, and MCSH terrain-shadow suppression).

Alpha-tested foliage caster (leaf-shaped canopy shadows): a CutoutShadowCasterMaterial (AlphaMode::Mask + an explicit prepass fragment, shadow_caster_cutout_prepass.wgsl) samples the leaf sheet and discards transparent texels in the directional-shadow pass, so a canopy casts its leaves instead of a solid box. Grouped one caster per leaf texture; StaticGx::collect_cutout_shadow_triangles buckets by AssetId and reuses the foliage's own image handle so the sampler inherits the correct clamp mode. MCSH terrain-shadow suppression now keys on the WORLD lane only (packed into the free sh_c16.w light lane via a new WorldShadowActive resource), not on the mere presence of a shadow sun — so character-only shadows leave the world's baked shadows intact. blob_shadow now hides the oval on characterShadows, not worldShadows.

MONKEY: split shadows into independent character + world lanes
Rework the realtime shadow feature into two INDEPENDENT, plug-and-play modules over one shared rig, plus alpha-tested foliage: - character_shadow.rs (was player_shadow.rs): owns the shared rig — one directional "sun" on private layer 31, the camera-layer plumbing, the shadow map, the invisible proxy material — and the per-frame CHARACTER lane. The rig lights up whenever EITHER lane is on. - world_shadow.rs (NEW, self-contained): the WORLD lane — the retained static_gx world (trees + buildings, cast solid) and alpha-tested foliage (leaf canopies, one caster per leaf texture). Removing the feature is deleting this module + its two calls + the cvar. Two separate cvars, each on its own Options row: `characterShadows` (players/NPCs/creatures/mounts, replacing the oval blob) and `worldShadows` (the static world + foliage, and MCSH terrain-shadow suppression). Either alone drives the shared sun; the per-frame entity caster admits Creature parts under characterShadows and entity-resident environment under worldShadows.

Apply reference real-character-shadows patch (Bevy shadow-map approach)
Character-only realtime shadows via a DirectionalLight + a private-layer
CPU-skinned caster proxy; terrain/models/static_gx receive through Bevy's
shadows::fetch_directional_shadow. Opt-in cvar `worldShadows` (default off);
