- Correct UNIT_FIELD_BYTES_0 to index 23 (was incorrectly 56) in update fields JSON and table
- Replace single power/maxPower with powers[7]/maxPowers[7] arrays indexed by power type
- Add setPowerByType/setMaxPowerByType helpers for setting specific power types
- getSpellCastResultString now returns "Not enough rage/energy/focus/runic power" based on player power type instead of always "Not enough mana"
- Fix NPC combat messages concatenating onto previous lines by combining prefix+body into single renderTextWithLinks call instead of TextWrapped+SameLine
- Improve generic error strings to be more WoW-authentic (Invalid target, Target not in line of sight, etc.)
The character stats panel was showing Armor: 0 because summing armor
from item query responses is fragile (depends on correct BuyCount/damage
block parsing). Instead, read the server-authoritative total armor
directly from UNIT_FIELD_RESISTANCES (physical resistance, index 0)
in the player entity update fields.
Added UNIT_FIELD_RESISTANCES to the UF enum and all four expansion
JSON files with correct wire indices:
WotLK 3.3.5a: 99 (NPC_FLAGS=82 + emotestate + stat×5 + posstat×5 + negstat×5)
TBC 2.4.3: 185 (NPC_FLAGS=168 + same relative layout)
Classic 1.12: 154 (NPC_FLAGS=147 + emotestate + stat×5, no posstat/negstat)
Turtle WoW: 154 (same as Classic)
Stats panel uses server armor when > 0, falls back to summed item-query
armor otherwise. Armor rating resets to 0 on world entry and is updated
from both CREATE_OBJECT and VALUES update blocks.
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().
Previously other players jittered because the entity sat frozen at its
destination between movement packets, then snapped to the new start
position on the next packet (stop-pop-stop-pop at ~10 Hz).
Entity interpolation now tracks a smoothed velocity and dead-reckons
past the end of each packet window, so the entity keeps gliding at the
estimated speed until the next server update arrives. Movement stops
only after two consecutive intervals with no new packet (entity has
genuinely stopped).
Also replaced the raw packet-delta duration with an exponential moving
average (EMA) per player. A single slow or fast packet no longer spikes
the playback speed; the EMA converges on the actual send rate (~100 ms)
and absorbs jitter without adding a fixed input-latency penalty.
Two bugs caused the client to look like a bot to server GMs:
1. Strafe animation played during forward+strafe (W+A) instead of the
walk/run animation. Added pureStrafe guard so strafe animations only
play when exclusively strafing (no forward key or auto-run active).
2. CMSG_MOVE_SET_FACING was never sent on mouse-look turns. The server
predicts movement from the last known facing; without SET_FACING the
heartbeat position appeared to teleport each time the player changed
direction. Now sent at up to 10 Hz whenever facing changes >3°,
skipped while keyboard-turning (handled server-side by TURN flags).
Both passes were rendering the entire loaded scene (17×17 tile radius)
into a shadow map that only covers 360×360 world units — submitting
10-50× more geometry than the shadow frustum can actually use.
- TerrainRenderer::renderShadow: skip chunks whose bounding sphere
doesn't overlap the shadow frustum AABB in XY. Reduces terrain draw
calls from O(all loaded chunks) to O(chunks within ~180 units).
- M2Renderer::renderShadow: skip instances whose world AABB doesn't
overlap the shadow frustum in XY. Reduces M2 draw calls similarly.
- Both functions now take shadowCenter + halfExtent parameters.
- SHADOW_MAP_SIZE 2048→1024: 4x fewer pixels rasterized in depth pass
- Replace 9-tap manual PCF loop with single hardware PCF tap in all 4 receiver
shaders (terrain.frag, wmo_renderer, m2_renderer, character_renderer).
GL_LINEAR + GL_COMPARE_REF_TO_TEXTURE already gives 2×2 bilinear PCF per
tap for free, so quality is maintained while doing 9x fewer texture fetches.
- Throttle shadow depth pass to every 2 frames; OpenGL depth texture persists
between frames so receivers always have a valid shadow map. 1-frame lag at
60 fps is invisible.
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.hpp: extend ERROR macro push/pop region to cover entire header so
LogLevel::ERROR inside template bodies compiles correctly on Windows
CMakeLists.txt: move tool install() rules next to each target definition
so they run after the targets exist (fixes macOS 'target does not exist')
- 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)
- 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
- Add Entity::setOrientation() to update facing without cancelling movement
- Force attacker and victim to face each other on SMSG_ATTACKSTART
- Fix orientation sign error in MonsterMove: use atan2(-dy, dx) throughout so
NPCs don't glide backward; clamp FacingAngle moves that are >90° off travel vector
- Tab-target: skip dead units and non-hostiles at both build and advance time;
stale entries (killed between presses) are skipped inline rather than cycling to them
- Spirit healer resurrection: detect same-map SMSG_NEW_WORLD with resurrectPending_
and skip the full world reload/entity clear, preventing the fall-forever bug
- propagate item damage range and delay into ItemDef during inventory rebuild
- show weapon damage, speed, and DPS in inventory/character slot tooltips
- fix online spawn camera pitch sign so third-person camera starts above ground
- 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
Batches whose named texture fails to load now render invisible instead of
white (the swampreeds01a.blp case causing a white shell around aquatic plants).
Also implements proper M2 opacity plumbing:
- Parse texture weight tracks (M2Track<fixed16>) and color animation alpha
tracks (M2Color.alpha) to resolve per-batch opacity at load time
- Skip batches with batchOpacity < 0.01 in the render loop
- Apply M2Texture.flags (bit0=WrapS, bit1=WrapT) to GL sampler wrap mode
- Upload both UV sets (texCoords[0] and texCoords[1]) and select via
textureUnit uniform, so batches referencing UV set 1 render correctly
Add AssetManager hookup to AudioEngine so the path-based playSound2D/3D
overloads can load files on demand rather than requiring preloading.
- Add setAssetManager() to AudioEngine (called during world load alongside
other audio manager initializations)
- playSound2D(mpqPath) now calls assetManager->readFile() then delegates
to the vector<uint8_t> overload (removes the "not yet implemented" warning)
- playSound3D(mpqPath, position) same — delegates to the fully spatialized
vector overload (was previously silently falling back to 2D)
- Trigger ding when UNIT_FIELD_LEVEL increases for player: plays LevelUp sound,
cheer emote animation, and shows screen overlay
- renderDingEffect(): 3 expanding golden rings + "LEVEL X!" / "DING!" text
drawn via ImDrawList foreground (3s duration, fades out last 0.8s)
- triggerDing() wires sound (UiSoundManager::playLevelUp) + emote + overlay
- LevelUpCallback in GameHandler fires on genuine level increase (newLevel > oldLevel)
- "Test: Level Up" button in escape menu triggers ding at current player level
