- Parse SMSG_DUEL_REQUESTED: store challenger guid/name, set
pendingDuelRequest_ flag, show chat notification
- Parse SMSG_DUEL_COMPLETE: clear pending flag, notify on cancel
- Parse SMSG_DUEL_WINNER: show "X defeated Y in a duel!" chat message
- Handle SMSG_DUEL_OUTOFBOUNDS with warning message
- Add acceptDuel() method sending CMSG_DUEL_ACCEPTED (new builder)
- Wire forfeitDuel() to clear pendingDuelRequest_ on decline
- Add renderDuelRequestPopup() ImGui window (Accept/Decline buttons)
positioned near group invite popup; shown when challenge is pending
- Add DuelAcceptPacket builder to world_packets.hpp/cpp
Two bugs in SMSG_MESSAGECHAT parser for MONSTER_SAY/YELL/EMOTE:
1. Sender name included trailing null byte from server (nameLen includes
null terminator). The embedded null in std::string caused ImGui to
truncate the concatenated display string at the NPC name, hiding
" says: <message>" entirely.
2. Missing NamedGuid receiver name for non-player/non-pet targets. When
the receiver GUID is a creature, the server writes an additional
SizedCString (target name) that we weren't reading, shifting all
subsequent field reads.
Also adds MONSTER_WHISPER, MONSTER_PARTY, RAID_BOSS_EMOTE, RAID_BOSS_WHISPER
chat types with proper parsing and display formatting (says/yells/whispers).
Implement generic handlers for force speed changes (walk, run back,
swim, swim back, flight, flight back, turn rate, pitch rate),
movement flag toggles (CAN_FLY, HOVER, feather fall, water walk),
and knockback ACKs. Fix SMSG_TIME_SYNC_REQ to respond with
CMSG_TIME_SYNC_RESP instead of silently dropping.
- Fix SMSG_ITEM_QUERY_SINGLE_RESPONSE parsing: read statsCount stat
pairs instead of always 10, use 2 damage entries (MAX_ITEM_PROTO_DAMAGES),
and parse item spell data (spellId + spellTrigger per slot)
- Pass item spell ID in CMSG_USE_ITEM packet so server processes item
use requests (spellId=0 caused silent server rejection)
- Add spellId parameter to buildUseItem interface across all expansions
- Fix spellbook mount tab to use SkillLine 777 (Mounts) instead of 762
(Riding), so known mount summon spells appear correctly
- Fix inventory right-click: use IsItemHovered+IsMouseClicked instead
of IsItemClicked for InvisibleButton (which only tracks left-clicks)
- Fix SlotKind enum declaration order in inventory_screen.hpp
- Add item class/subclass category filters (Weapon, Armor, etc.) with correct WoW 3.3.5a IDs
- Add sell item picker dropdown with icons and Create Auction button
- Add pagination (Prev/Next) for browse results with filter preservation
- Add Buy/Bid action buttons to Bids tab
- Add item icons and stat tooltips on hover across all three tabs
- Add Enter-to-search from name field and search delay countdown
- Parse SMSG_AUCTION_OWNER/BIDDER_NOTIFICATION into chat messages
- Auto-refresh browse results after bid/buyout using saved search params
- Clamp level range inputs to 0-80
- CMSG_SEND_MAIL now includes item GUIDs (up to 12 per WotLK)
- Right-click items in bags to attach when mail compose is open
- Compose window shows 12-slot attachment grid with item icons
- Click attached items to remove them
- Classic/Vanilla falls back to single item GUID format
Add page-text support for sign-like gameobject interactions by handling SMSG_GAMEOBJECT_PAGETEXT and SMSG_PAGE_TEXT_QUERY_RESPONSE, and issuing CMSG_PAGE_TEXT_QUERY when page IDs are available from cached GO template data.
Normalize received page text tokens before chat display and add a fallback for basic signpost GO type clicks to print sign names when no page data is present.
Correct M2 gameobject yaw alignment for signposts/arrows by applying render-space -90deg offset consistently across spawn, position update, and move-callback transforms; keep WMO orientation path unchanged.
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.
warden_emulator.cpp: guard unicorn include + entire implementation with
HAVE_UNICORN; provide stub implementations for platforms without Unicorn
(Windows ARM64 which has no unicorn MSYS2 package)
warden_module.cpp: include <windows.h> for VirtualAlloc/HMODULE/etc on
Windows; always include warden_emulator.hpp so unique_ptr destructor compiles
regardless of HAVE_UNICORN
world_packets.hpp + game_handler.cpp: rename CharCreateResult::ERROR to
CharCreateResult::CHAR_ERROR to avoid wingdi.h #define ERROR 0 collision
- logger.cpp: use localtime_s on Windows (reversed arg order vs localtime_r)
- process.hpp: drop constexpr on INVALID_PROCESS (INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE is a
reinterpret_cast, not valid in constexpr context)
- world_packets.hpp: push/pop ERROR macro around CharCreateResult enum to avoid
clash with wingdi.h #define ERROR 0
- parse and cache item class/subclass, damage range, and attack delay from item query responses
- render weapon damage, speed, and DPS in the shared item-link tooltip
- render weapon damage, speed, and DPS in vendor hover tooltips
- keep armor and primary stat lines intact
- send CMSG_BUY_ITEM as vendorGuid + itemId + count (drop extra slot/bag fields)
- reset vendor list state before parsing SMSG_LIST_INVENTORY to prevent stale items carrying over
- add packet length guards for list-inventory header and per-item rows
- keep optional extended-cost parsing for cross-core compatibility
Add 27 new opcodes, packet builders/parsers, handler methods, inventory
extension with 28 bank slots + 7 bank bags, and UI windows for personal
bank, guild bank (6 tabs x 98 slots), and auction house (browse/sell/bid).
Fix Classic gossip parser to omit boxMoney/boxText fields not present in
Vanilla protocol, fix gossip icon labels with text-based NPC type detection,
and add Turtle WoW opcode mappings for bank and auction interactions.
Guild: add disband, leader transfer, public/officer note commands with
roster context menu showing rank names and officer notes column. Auto-refresh
roster after guild events.
Channels: fix city/region channels not working by accepting SMSG_CHANNEL_NOTIFY
during ENTERING_WORLD state (server auto-joins before VERIFY_WORLD) and handling
PLAYER_ALREADY_MEMBER notification.
Whisper: /r now switches to whisper tab and sets target to last sender,
matching WoW behavior.
Camera: extend WMO collision raycasting to work outside WMOs too.
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.
- Parse MCLQ sub-chunks in vanilla ADTs for water rendering (WotLK uses MH2O)
- Load TaxiPathNode.dbc for MO_TRANSPORT world-coordinate paths (vanilla boats)
- Parse data[] from SMSG_GAMEOBJECT_QUERY_RESPONSE (taxiPathId for transports)
- Support vanilla M2 particle emitters (504-byte struct, different from WotLK 476)
- Add character preview texture diagnostic logging
- Fix disconnect handling on character screen (show error only when no chars)
Fix WotLK chat parser not stripping null terminators from messages,
fix channel message local echo missing channelName, expand default
channels to General/Trade/LocalDefense/LookingForGroup with
configurable auto-join, add Classic packet format for join/leave
channel, display channel index prefix in chat, and add Chat settings
tab with timestamps, font size, and auto-join toggles.
Guild O tab: fallback to character guildId when guildName_ not yet
queried, re-query guild info on roster open. /who: add missing
stringCount field and fix maxLevel default (0→100). /inspect: add
SMSG_INSPECT_TALENT opcode (0x3F4) and rewrite parser for WotLK
PackedGUID+talent format. Character preview: reset all tracking
variables in setAssetManager() to force model reload on login.
Chat tabs filter messages into General/Combat/Whispers/Trade tabs. Text
emotes now send CMSG_TEXT_EMOTE to server and display incoming emotes
from other players. Channel system auto-joins General/Trade on login with
/join, /leave, and /1-/9 shortcuts. Chat bubbles render as ImGui overlays
above entities for SAY/YELL messages with fade-out animation.
- Parse vanilla M2 animation tracks (flat arrays with M2Range indices)
instead of skipping them, fixing T-pose on all vanilla models
- Use C4Quaternion (float[4]) for vanilla bone rotations instead of
CompressedQuat (int16[4]) which produced garbage transforms
- Fix vanilla M2 attachment struct size (48 bytes, not 40) so weapons
attach to correct bones instead of model origin
- Route movement packets through expansion-specific packet parsers
instead of hardcoded WotLK format, fixing server-side position sync
- Fix Spell.dbc field indices for classic/turtle (Name=120, Rank=129,
IconID=117) - were pointing to Portuguese locale column (+7 offset)
- Change guild roster keybind from J to O (WoW default)
- Add guild opcodes for all expansions
- 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
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
- Added transport fields to MovementInfo struct (transportGuid, transportX/Y/Z/O, transportTime)
- Updated MovementPacket::build() to serialize transport data when ONTRANSPORT flag set
- Modified GameHandler::sendMovement() to include transport info when player on transport
- Fixed coordinate conversion for transport offsets (server↔canonical)
- Added transport tracking in both CREATE_OBJECT and MOVEMENT update handlers
- Connected M2Renderer to WMORenderer for hierarchical doodad transforms
- Server-authoritative transport movement (no client-side animation)
Issue: Server not sending MOVEMENT updates for transports, so they remain stationary.
Transports register successfully but don't animate without server position updates.
Network Protocol:
- Add SMSG_TALENTS_INFO (0x4C0) packet parsing for talent data
- Add CMSG_LEARN_TALENT (0x251) to request learning talents
- Add MSG_TALENT_WIPE_CONFIRM (0x2AB) opcode for spec switching
- Parse talent spec, unspent points, and learned talent ranks
DBC Parsing:
- Load Talent.dbc: talent grid positions, ranks, prerequisites, spell IDs
- Load TalentTab.dbc: talent tree definitions with correct field indices
- Fix localized string field handling (17 fields per string)
- Load Spell.dbc and SpellIcon.dbc for talent icons and tooltips
- Class mask filtering using bitwise operations (1 << (class - 1))
UI Implementation:
- Complete talent tree UI with tabbed interface for specs
- Display talent icons from spell data with proper tinting/borders
- Enhanced tooltips: spell name, rank, current/next descriptions, prereqs
- Visual states: green (maxed), yellow (partial), white (available), gray (locked)
- Tier unlock system (5 points per tier requirement)
- Rank overlay on icons with shadow text
- Click to learn talents with validation
Dual Spec Support:
- Store unspent points and learned talents per spec (0 and 1)
- Track active spec and display its talents
- Spec switching UI with buttons for Spec 1/Spec 2
- Handle both SMSG_TALENTS_INFO packets from server at login
- Display unspent points for both specs in header
- Independent talent trees for each specialization
The comment incorrectly stated state values as:
0=known(green), 1=available, 2=unavailable(red)
Actual correct values are:
0=unavailable(grey), 1=available(green), 2=known(green)
This was causing confusion when debugging trainer issues.
Nonbinary characters can now choose between masculine and feminine body types in character creation, with real-time preview updates and full appearance customization. Body type preference is saved to character config and persists across sessions. Also reduces character preview drag-to-rotate sensitivity from 0.5 to 0.2 for better control.
CMSG_TRAINER_BUY_SPELL was missing the trainerId field — server expects
guid(8) + trainerId(4) + spellId(4) = 16 bytes, not 12. Spells with
unmet prerequisites (chainNode1/2/3), insufficient level, or already
known are now greyed out with disabled Train buttons. Tooltips show
prerequisite status in green/red.
