Both operands are size_t (unsigned), so if readPos > data.size() the
subtraction wrapped to ~0 instead of returning 0. This could happen
via setReadPos() which has no bounds check. Downstream hasRemaining()
was already safe but getRemainingSize() callers (e.g. hasFullPackedGuid)
would see billions of bytes available.
Mail: change money/COD fields from uint32 to uint64 in CMSG_SEND_MAIL and
SMSG_MAIL_LIST_RESULT for WotLK 3.3.5a. Classic keeps uint32 on the wire.
Fixes money truncation and packet misalignment causing mail failures.
Other-player capes: add cape texture loading to setOnlinePlayerEquipment().
The cape geoset was enabled but no texture was loaded, leaving capes blank.
Now mirrors the local-player path: looks up ItemDisplayInfo.dbc, finds cape
texture candidates, applies via setGroupTextureOverride/setTextureSlotOverride.
Zone toasts: suppress duplicate zone toast when the zone text overlay is
already showing the same zone name. Fixes double "Entering: Stormwind City".
Network: enable TCP_NODELAY on both auth and world sockets after connect(),
disabling Nagle's algorithm to eliminate up to 200ms buffering delay on
small packets (movement, spell casts, chat).
Rendering: track material and bone descriptor sets in M2 renderer to skip
redundant vkCmdBindDescriptorSets calls between batches sharing same textures.
Add writePackedGuid() to Packet class for read/write symmetry. Remove
now-redundant UpdateObjectParser::readPackedGuid and
MovementPacket::writePackedGuid static methods. Replace 6 internal
readPackedGuid calls, 9 writePackedGuid calls, and 1 inline 14-line
transport GUID write with Packet method calls.
Move packed GUID reading into Packet class alongside readUInt8/readFloat.
Replace 121 UpdateObjectParser::readPackedGuid(packet) calls with
packet.readPackedGuid() across 4 files, reducing coupling between
Packet and UpdateObjectParser.
Add Packet::hasFullPackedGuid() method and remove identical standalone
definitions from game_handler.cpp and packet_parsers_classic.cpp.
Replace 53 free-function calls with method calls.
Add getRemainingSize() one-liner to Packet class and replace all 656
instances of getSize()-getReadPos() across game_handler, world_packets,
and both packet parser files.
Socket fixes (fixes Windows-only connection failure):
- WorldSocket::connect() now waits for non-blocking connect to complete with
select() before returning, preventing WSAENOTCONN on the first recv() call
on Windows (Linux handles this implicitly but Windows requires writability
poll after non-blocking connect)
- Add net::isConnectionClosed() helper: treats WSAENOTCONN/WSAECONNRESET/
WSAESHUTDOWN/WSAECONNABORTED as graceful peer-close rather than recv errors
- Apply isConnectionClosed() in both WorldSocket and TCPSocket recv loops
UI:
- Add renderBossFrames(): displays boss unit health bars in top-right corner
when SMSG_UPDATE_INSTANCE_ENCOUNTER_UNIT has active slots; supports
click-to-target and color-coded health bars (red→orange→yellow as HP drops)
- net_platform.hpp: guard ssize_t typedef with !__MINGW32__ since MinGW-w64
already defines ssize_t as __int64 in corecrt.h
- logger.hpp: push/pop ERROR macro around LogLevel enum (same wingdi.h clash
as world_packets.hpp)
- Vanilla M2 bone struct (108 bytes) with 28-byte animation tracks
- Version-aware bone parsing (vanilla vs WotLK format detection)
- Fix CharSections.dbc field layout for vanilla (variation/color at 4-5)
- Remove broken CharSections.csv files (all fields marked as strings)
- Expansion data reload on profile switch (DBC cache clear, layout reload)
- Vanilla packet encryption (VanillaCrypt XOR-based header crypt)
- Extended character preview geoset range (0-99) for vanilla models
- DBC cache clear support in AssetManager
- Fix encryption desync by tracking decrypted header bytes in world socket
- Fix UPDATE_OBJECT movement block parsing to handle 3.3.5a update flags
- Fix UNIT_FIELD_DISPLAYID index (67, not 71)
- Add creature spawn/despawn callbacks with DBC-based model loading
- Add SMSG_COMPRESSED_UPDATE_OBJECT opcode support
Replace POSIX-specific socket and process APIs with portable
abstractions so the project builds on both Windows and Linux.
- Add include/network/net_platform.hpp: Winsock2/POSIX socket
abstraction (socket types, non-blocking, error handling,
WSAStartup lifecycle)
- Add include/platform/process.hpp: CreateProcess/fork+exec
abstraction for spawning ffplay subprocesses
- Update network module (tcp_socket, world_socket) to use
portable socket helpers instead of raw POSIX calls
- Update audio module (music_manager, footstep_manager,
activity_sound_manager) to use portable process helpers
instead of fork/exec/kill/waitpid
- Replace hardcoded /tmp/ paths with std::filesystem::temp_directory_path()
- Link ws2_32 and SDL2main on Windows in CMakeLists.txt
