Add TbcPacketParsers::parseSpellHealLog override using full uint64 GUIDs
(TBC) instead of packed GUIDs (WotLK). Route handleAttackerStateUpdate,
handleSpellDamageLog, and handleSpellHealLog through the virtual
packetParsers_ interface so expansion-specific overrides are actually
called. Previously the game handler bypassed virtual dispatch with
direct static parser calls, making all three TBC overrides dead code.
TBC 2.4.3 SMSG_ATTACKERSTATEUPDATE and SMSG_SPELLNONMELEEDAMAGELOG send
full uint64 GUIDs for attacker/target, while WotLK 3.3.5a uses packed
(variable-length) GUIDs. Using the WotLK reader on TBC packets consumes
1-8 bytes where a fixed 8 are expected, shifting all subsequent reads
and producing completely wrong damage/absorbed/resisted values.
Add TbcPacketParsers overrides that read plain uint64 GUIDs. Also note
that TBC SMSG_SPELLNONMELEEDAMAGELOG lacks the WotLK overkill field.
TBC 2.4.3 differs from WotLK in four ways:
- Header: uint8 count only (WotLK: uint32 totalCount + uint8 shownCount),
so the WotLK parser was reading 4 garbage bytes before the count
- No extra unknown uint32 between itemTextId and stationery in each entry
- Attachment item GUID: full uint64 (WotLK uses uint32 low GUID)
- Attachment enchants: 7 × uint32 id only (WotLK: 7 × {id+duration+charges})
The resulting mis-parse would scramble subject/money/cod/flags for every
mail entry and corrupt all attachment reads. Add TbcPacketParsers::parseMailList
with the correct TBC 2.4.3 format.
SMSG_GOSSIP_MESSAGE quest entries in TBC 2.4.3 do not include
questFlags(u32) or isRepeatable(u8) that WotLK 3.3.5a added.
The WotLK default parser reads these 5 bytes, causing all quest titles
in gossip dialogs to be shifted/corrupted on TBC servers.
Add TbcPacketParsers::parseGossipMessage() which parses quest entries
without those fields, fixing NPC quest list display.
CMSG_CAST_SPELL: WotLK adds a castFlags(u8) byte after spellId that TBC
2.4.3 does not have. Add TbcPacketParsers::buildCastSpell() to omit it,
preventing every spell cast from being rejected by TBC servers.
CMSG_USE_ITEM: WotLK adds a glyphIndex(u32) field between itemGuid and
castFlags that TBC 2.4.3 does not have. Add buildUseItem() override.
SMSG_MONSTER_MOVE: WotLK adds a uint8 unk byte after the packed GUID
(MOVEMENTFLAG2_UNK7 toggle) that TBC 2.4.3 does not have. Add
parseMonsterMove() override to fix NPC movement parsing — without this,
all NPC positions, durations, and waypoints parse from the wrong byte
offset, making all NPC movement appear broken on TBC servers.
Normalize WoW quest text tokens during parsing so quest titles/details no longer leak raw markup like and |n into UI. Apply to WotLK and Classic parser paths, including quest list parsing in GameHandler.
Harden quest state handling by mapping abandon requests to authoritative server quest-log slots (PLAYER_QUEST_LOG_START) instead of local vector order, with a guarded fallback when update fields are unavailable.
Improve accept de-duplication by trusting server slot state over stale local cache; allow re-accept when local/server state diverges and trigger resync semantics.
Add expansion-aware CMSG_QUESTGIVER_ACCEPT_QUEST builders: WotLK sends guid+questId+unk1(uint32), while TBC/Classic/Turtle send guid+questId only. Wire GameHandler through PacketParsers for compatibility across expansions and cores.
Classic: synchronized Data/expansions/classic/opcodes.json to /home/k/Desktop/classicopcodes.h with exact symbol/value parity (0 missing, 0 mismatches).
WotLK: synchronized Data/expansions/wotlk/opcodes.json to /home/k/Desktop/azerothcoreOpcodes.h and aligned symbol names to AzerothCore naming.
Logical opcode layer: expanded include/game/opcode_table.hpp and src/game/opcode_table.cpp to include missing canonical opcode symbols required by synced tables, and removed legacy alias fallback block so canonical names are used directly.
Gameplay/handler updates included from ongoing fixes: duel/taxi stale opcode cleanup, level-up/sound handling adjustments, and related parser/packet references updated to match canonical opcode identifiers.
Validated by successful full build: cmake --build build -j32.
TBC 2.4.3 SMSG_ITEM_QUERY_SINGLE_RESPONSE differs from WotLK: no Flags2,
no BuyCount, statsCount-many stat pairs (not always 10), and no
ScalingStatDistribution/ScalingStatValue. Without this override,
TbcPacketParsers fell back to the WotLK parser and misread stats/armor
with a cascading 16-byte offset. Classic (Vanilla) was already safe via
its own independent ClassicPacketParsers::parseItemQueryResponse().
- Add TurtlePacketParsers with dedicated movement block parser (Classic format + transport timestamp)
- Fix quest giver status: read uint32 and translate vanilla enum values for Classic/Turtle
- Fix quest accept packet: remove trailing uint32 that vanilla servers reject
- Fix quest details parser: auto-detect vanilla vs WotLK format (informUnit field)
- Fix spellbook and action bar icons: fallback to WotLK DBC field indices when expansion layout fails
- Fix spell cast failure messages: translate vanilla SpellCastResult codes (+1 offset)
- Fix realm list: correct type values (6=RP, 8=RP-PvP) and population thresholds
- Fix music: disable looping for zone music, auto-advance to next random track when finished
- Add music anti-repeat: avoid playing the same track back-to-back
- Make TBC update block parsing resilient (keep parsed blocks on failure instead of aborting)
- Add right-click attack on hostile mobs
- Add name query diagnostic logging
- Route SMSG_UPDATE_OBJECT through polymorphic parsers for correct
vanilla format (uint8 updateFlags, 6 speeds vs WotLK uint16/9)
- Fix SMSG_DESTROY_OBJECT for vanilla (8 bytes, no isDeath field)
- Add MSG_MOVE_* handlers for other player movement relay
- Add ClassicPacketParsers::parseMessageChat with targetGuid read
and monster-type name handling
- Resolve chat sender names from player name cache before display
- Fix CSV DBC field 0 always treated as numeric ID (fixes 16+ garbled
Turtle CSVs including Map, AreaTable, Spell, CreatureDisplayInfo)
- Add CSV DBC validation: reject garbled CSVs (>80% zero IDs) and
fall back to binary DBC files
- Fix ItemDisplayInfo texture component field index (14+ not 15+)
for binary DBC with gender-aware suffix resolution
- Spawn other players as visible M2 models via creature callback
- Map name cache dedup prevents overwrites from duplicate CSV records
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
