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.
- game_handler.cpp: use-after-move on node.id after std::move(node)
(save nodeId before the move)
- tcp_socket.cpp, world_socket.cpp: virtual call in destructor bypasses
dispatch; use qualified TCPSocket::disconnect() / WorldSocket::disconnect()
to make intent explicit
- wmo_renderer.cpp: float loop counters risk precision drift; replace with
integer step counts and reconstruct float from index
- game_screen.cpp: (float + 0.5) cast to int is incorrect rounding;
use std::lround instead
CMake processes escape sequences twice: once reading CMakeLists.txt and
once loading the generated CPackConfig.cmake. Backslashes need four
levels of escaping (\\) to survive both passes and land as a single
backslash in the injected NSIS script.
Copy Wowee.ico into the build tree at configure time so llvm-rc can
resolve the relative assets\\wowee.ico path in wowee.rc. Also remove a
redundant #include <sys/mman.h> that was incorrectly placed inside a
function body.
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
