Implement full mail send/receive: SMSG_SHOW_MAILBOX, CMSG_GET_MAIL_LIST,
SMSG_MAIL_LIST_RESULT, CMSG_SEND_MAIL, SMSG_SEND_MAIL_RESULT, mail take
money/item/delete/mark-as-read, and inbox/compose UI windows.
Fix periodic stuttering in Stormwind caused by synchronous per-line disk
flushes in the logger — remove fileStream.flush() and std::endl, downgrade
high-volume per-packet/per-model/per-texture LOG_INFO to LOG_DEBUG.
CharSections fields were mapped incorrectly (Variation/Color at 4-5,
textures at 6-8) — corrected to textures at 4-6, Flags at 7,
Variation at 8, Color at 9. Fixed in both dbc_layout.cpp and all
expansion JSON configs. Also fix Warden HASH_REQUEST to SHA1 over
seed+moduleImage instead of just seed.
Two bugs fixed:
1. SMSG_INSPECT_RESULTS (0x115) was falling through to the inspect
handler, but this opcode is not the real inspect response. Removed
the case so only SMSG_INSPECT_TALENT (0x3F4) triggers the handler.
2. EmotesText DBC layout was missing "ID" field in all 4 expansion
JSON files, causing operator[] to return 0xFFFFFFFF instead of 0.
This broke the dbcId reverse lookup, so other players' emotes
always fell back to generic "performs an emote" text. Added ID
and OthersTargetTextID/OthersNoTargetTextID to all layouts.
Load third-person emote text templates (othersTarget/othersNoTarget)
from EmotesText.dbc fields 3 and 7 alongside existing sender text.
Build reverse lookup map from dbcId to EmoteInfo for incoming
SMSG_TEXT_EMOTE resolution. Other players now show proper emote
descriptions like "Player dances with Target" instead of generic
"Player performs an emote" text.
Expansion overlays allow each expansion to supplement the base asset data
via an assetManifest field in expansion.json, loaded at priority 50 (below
HD packs). The asset extractor gains --reference-manifest for delta-only
extraction. Also fixes CharSections field indices (VariationIndex=4,
ColorIndex=5, Texture1=6) across all DBC layout references.
Replace hardcoded WotLK protocol constants with a data-driven architecture
supporting Classic 1.12.1, TBC 2.4.3, and WotLK 3.3.5a. Each expansion
has JSON profiles for opcodes, update fields, and DBC layouts, plus C++
polymorphic packet parsers for binary format differences (movement flags,
speed fields, transport data, spline format, char enum layout).
Key components:
- ExpansionRegistry: scans Data/expansions/*/expansion.json at startup
- OpcodeTable: logical enum <-> wire values loaded from JSON
- UpdateFieldTable: field indices loaded from JSON per expansion
- DBCLayout: schema-driven DBC field lookups replacing magic numbers
- PacketParsers: WotLK/TBC/Classic parsers with correct flag positions
- Multi-manifest AssetManager: layered manifests with priority ordering
- HDPackManager: overlay texture packs with expansion compatibility
- Auth screen expansion picker replacing hardcoded version dropdown
