Anisotropic filtering now queries GL_MAX_TEXTURE_MAX_ANISOTROPY_EXT once
and applies via a single applyAnisotropicFiltering() utility, replacing
hardcoded calls across all renderers. Fog (sky horizon color, 100-600
range) and Blinn-Phong specular highlights are added to WMO, M2, and
character shaders for visual parity with terrain. Shadow sampling
plumbing (sampler2DShadow with 3x3 PCF) is wired into all three shaders
gated by uShadowEnabled, ready for a future shadow map pass.
- Add spellbook screen (P key) with Spell.dbc name lookup and action bar assignment
- Default Attack and Hearthstone spells available in single player
- Fix WMO floor clipping (gryphon roost) by tightening ceiling rejection threshold
- Darken ocean water, increase wave motion and opacity
- Add M2 model distance fade-in to prevent pop-in
- Reposition chat window, add slash/enter key focus
- Remove debug key commands (keep only F1 perf HUD, N minimap)
- Performance: return chat history by const ref, use deque for O(1) pop_front
- Implement orbit camera with smooth zoom and collision detection
- Add 50° slope limiting with sliding (prevents mountain climbing)
- Add first-person mode that hides player model and weapons
- Add floor clearance check to prevent camera clipping through ground
- Improve WMO wall collision with proper height range checks
- Add two-sided floor collision detection for WMO geometry
- Increase M2 render distance slightly for better visibility
- Add loading screen system with stb_image for JPEG loading
- Two loading screen images (orc and dwarf) randomly selected
- Display loading screen while terrain data loads
- Cache WMO inverse matrices to reduce per-frame computation
- Stub WMO liquid rendering (needs coordinate system fix)
- Update spawn point to Stormwind Trade District
- Spawn position changed to (-9080, -100, 100) which is on actual terrain
- The terrain mesh uses WoW coordinates from ADT files directly
- Camera/spawn position must use same coordinate system as terrain
- Cleaned up getHeightAt comments to clarify coordinate system
- Removed debug logging from WMO floor detection
- Increase WMO render distance from 1500 to 3000 units for better city loading
- Increase M2 render distance from 500 to 1000 units
- Increase terrain load radius from 4 to 6 tiles (~3200 units)
- Add raycast-based camera collision that zooms in when obstructed by walls/objects
- Move spawn point outside chapel to road near Stormwind gate
- Add ground height smoothing to prevent stumbling on uneven terrain
