Root cause: OpcodeTable::loadFromJson() cleared all mappings before
loading the expansion JSON, so any WotLK opcode absent from Turtle WoW's
opcodes.json (including SMSG_AURA_UPDATE and SMSG_AURA_UPDATE_ALL) was
permanently lost. Changed loadFromJson to patch/merge on top of existing
defaults so only explicitly listed opcodes are overridden.
Also fix isBuff border color: was testing flag 0x02 (effect 2 active)
instead of 0x80 (negative/debuff flag).
Add client-side duration countdown: AuraSlot.receivedAtMs is stamped
when the packet arrives; getRemainingMs(nowMs) subtracts elapsed time so
buff tooltips show accurate remaining duration instead of stale snapshot.
The action bar's inline Spell.dbc loader had a broken field index lookup:
operator[] on the layout map would silently insert 0 if 'Name' wasn't a
key, causing all names to be read from field 0 (the spell ID). Also the
once-only 'attempted' flag meant if assetMgr wasn't ready, it never retried.
Replace the duplicated broken DBC loading in the action bar and buff bar
with SpellbookScreen::lookupSpellName(), which reuses the spellbook's
already-correct loading (expansion layout + WotLK fallback). Remove the
now-unused actionSpellNames/actionSpellDbAttempted/actionSpellDbLoaded fields.
Re-send CMSG_ATTACKSWING every second while auto-attacking so combat
resumes automatically when the server pauses the attack loop (out of
range, etc). Previously the client kept autoAttacking=true but never
re-engaged, requiring the player to manually right-click again.
Also remove leftover single-player/offline references from comments.
- audio_engine.cpp: cache key was based on vector pointer address, not
content — cache never hit since each asset load produces a new
allocation. Replace with FNV-1a over head+tail bytes + size, giving
correct content-based identity at O(1) cost. Add 256-entry cap with
eviction to prevent unbounded growth over long sessions.
- game_handler.hpp/cpp, spellbook_screen, game_screen: knownSpells was
a std::vector with O(n) std::find lookups scattered across packet
handlers and UI code. Switch to std::unordered_set for O(1) insert,
erase, and membership checks. Update all push_back/erase-remove/find
call sites to use set operations.
Previously this opcode was unrecognised and silently dropped, leaving the
client stuck in ENTERING_WORLD with no feedback when the server rejected a
login (duplicate session, world down, disabled race/class, etc.). Now we
decode the LoginFailureReason byte, reset state to CHAR_LIST_RECEIVED so
the player can retry, and surface a red error message on the character screen
via the new CharLoginFailCallback. Also adds isError colour support to
CharacterScreen::setStatus so failures show in red and successes in green.
- 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
- Fix action bar, bag bar, chat window to track window resize (Always pos)
- Show spell names in cast bar instead of spell IDs
- Play precast/cast-complete sounds via SpellSoundManager
- Fix hearthstone to use CMSG_CAST_SPELL directly (avoids slot sync issues)
- Show map name instead of coordinates in hearthstone tooltip
- Show cooldown time remaining in action bar tooltips
- Search equipped slots and bags for action bar item icons
- Redesign realm screen: back button, larger table/buttons, auto-select
realm with characters, double-click to enter, proportional columns
- Clear introActive/idleOrbit in externalFollow block so mouse panning works during taxi
- Skip full world reload on same-map teleports (taxi landing) by tracking loadedMapId
- Collect all model IDs for a path when resolving gryphon display ID (fixes displayId=0)
- Remove incorrect MountDisplayId fields from Vanilla/Turtle TaxiNodes DBC layouts
- Add Vanilla fly animation IDs (234/229/233) to taxi mount animation candidates
Vanilla CMSG_ITEM_QUERY_SINGLE has no GUID field (just uint32 entry),
causing servers to reject the oversized WotLK-format packets. Also fix
response parser: remove nonexistent statsCount field and use 5 damage
types instead of 2 to match Vanilla protocol.
Rebuild creature display lookups after expansion-specific DBC layout loads
(was using WotLK defaults before turtle layout was available). Add full
drag-and-drop support for bag items with server-side CMSG_SWAP_ITEM packets.
Add Classic-specific SMSG_ITEM_QUERY_SINGLE_RESPONSE parser for Vanilla
format differences (fewer damage types, no scaling stats, no Flags2).
Only show "Your home has been set" when the player actively changes their
bind point (via innkeeper), not on the initial login sync from the server.
Add "Local" to the auto-join channel list for Turtle WoW compatibility,
with a settings checkbox and persistence.
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.
Fix mailbox right-click (transposed CMSG_GAMEOBJECT_USE opcode, missing
mail opcodes in Turtle WoW JSON, decorative GO type filtering). Add
expansion-aware mail packet handling via PacketParsers: Classic format
(single item, no msgSize prefix, Vanilla field order) vs WotLK format
(attachment arrays, enchant slots). Fix CMSG_MAIL_TAKE_ITEM and
CMSG_MAIL_DELETE for Vanilla (no trailing fields). Add pulsing "New
Mail" indicator below minimap, SMSG_RECEIVED_MAIL and
MSG_QUERY_NEXT_MAIL_TIME handlers, and async sender name backfill.
Defer equipment texture compositing to a queue processed max 1 per frame
instead of compositing immediately on callback (each compositeWithRegions
call does file I/O + CPU blit + GPU upload on the main thread). Reduce
MAX_SPAWNS_PER_FRAME from 96 to 8 and increase inspect rate limit from
0.75s to 2s. Demote noisy per-frame logs to DEBUG level.
Corrected CharGeosets group assignments verified via vertex bounding boxes:
- Group 4 (401+) = gloves/forearms, Group 5 (501+) = boots/shins,
Group 8 (801+) = sleeves (chest-controlled), Group 9 = kneepads,
Group 13 (1301+) = pants/trousers, Group 20 (2002) = bare feet
- Changed bare shin default from 501 to 502 for better width match
with thigh mesh (0.39 vs 0.32, thighs are 0.42)
- Added clearCompositeCache() to prevent stale composite textures
from being reused across equipment changes
- Fixed character preview geoset defaults to match corrected mapping
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.
11 original tracks in assets/Original Music/ now play on the login
screen and in thematically matched zones across Eastern Kingdoms and
Kalimdor. Added crossfadeToFile to MusicManager for local file
playback during zone transitions. New zones: Tirisfal, Undercity,
Barrens, STV, Duskwood, Burning Steppes, Searing Gorge, Ironforge,
Loch Modan, Orgrimmar, Durotar, Mulgore, Thunder Bluff, Darkshore,
Teldrassil, Darnassus.
Remove HDPackManager, expansion overlay manifests, and BLP size-comparison
logic. Assets now resolve through a single manifest with a simple override
directory (Data/override/) for future HD upgrades.
SpellCastTargets target mask is uint16 in vanilla 1.12.x, not uint32
like WotLK. The 2 extra bytes corrupted every spell packet. Also add
classic CMSG_USE_ITEM builder (bag+slot+spellIndex+targets only, no
spellId/itemGuid/glyphIndex/castFlags fields that WotLK added).
- Per-family mount sounds (kodo, tallstrider, mechanostrider, etc.) detected from M2 model path
- Skip WMO groups with SHOW_SKYBOX flag or all-untextured batches (grey mesh in Orgrimmar)
- Freeze physics during taxi landing until terrain loads to prevent falling through void
- Disable bone animations on tropical vegetation (palm, bamboo, banana, etc.) to fix wiggling
- Snap player to final taxi waypoint on flight completion
- Extract mount aura spell ID from classic UNIT_FIELD_AURAS for CMSG_CANCEL_AURA dismount
- Increase /unstuck forward nudge to 5 units
- 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)
Classic gossip packets lack the menuId field and quest items don't have
questFlags/isRepeatable, causing the WotLK parser to read garbage counts
(541M quests) and hang. Added ClassicPacketParsers::parseGossipMessage
override with the correct vanilla format.
Add resetDbcCaches() to GameHandler to clear stale spell name, skill,
taxi, and talent caches when switching expansions. Called from
reloadExpansionData() so switching servers (e.g. WotLK to Turtle)
reloads DBC data instead of using stale entries from the previous
expansion.
Add reset() to RealmScreen and CharacterScreen to clear stale selection
state. Clear auth handler realm list on reconnect. Reset both screens
when going back to login or back to realm selection, so switching
servers shows fresh data instead of stale lists from the previous
connection.
Fix critical skip/copy parsing bug where source pointer advanced for
both skip and copy sections (skip has no source data). Implement real
relocations using delta-encoded offsets. Strip RSA signature before
zlib decompression. Load module when download completes and cache to
disk. Add empirical hash testing against CR entries and compute
SHA1(moduleImage) response with SHA1Randx key derivation for any seed.
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.
Three Classic packet format fixes:
1. CMSG_CAST_SPELL: target flags are uint32 (not uint16). The wrong
size caused the server to misparse the packet as an item enchant
operation, returning "item already enchanted".
2. SMSG_CAST_FAILED: Classic has no castCount byte prefix (added in
TBC). Added parseCastFailed override to ClassicPacketParsers.
Without this, the parser read the wrong bytes and produced
"Spell cast failed (error 0)" for every failure.
3. SMSG_MESSAGECHAT: Removed spurious receiverGuid read for SAY/YELL
types. Classic chat format has no second GUID before the message
body — the extra 8-byte read consumed messageLen + message data,
producing empty chat messages.
Chat: renderTextWithLinks now properly handles |cAARRGGBB color codes
that aren't item links (e.g. colored player names), rendering the text
in the specified color instead of discarding it.
Dismount: Classic/Vanilla lacks CMSG_CANCEL_MOUNT_AURA (TBC+ opcode).
Track mount aura spell ID when mountDisplayId changes, then use
CMSG_CANCEL_AURA as fallback on expansions without the dedicated opcode.
Binary ItemDisplayInfo.dbc has 23 fields with texture components at
14-21, not 15-22. The previous "fix" shifted all fields by +1 which
read wrong columns and broke both player and NPC equipment rendering.
Also fix local player texture cycling: rebuildOnlineInventory() was
called on every item query response (including for other players),
unconditionally setting onlineEquipDirty_ which triggered redundant
texture recompositing. Now tracks previous equipment displayInfoIds
and only sets dirty when they actually change.
Unified all 3 equipment texture code paths (local player, other
players, NPCs) to use the DBC layout system with correct field 14
base index.
Parse WoW item link format (|cXXXXXXXX|Hitem:ENTRY:...|h[Name]|h|r)
in chat messages. Item names render in quality color, hover shows
tooltip with slot type, armor, and stats. Shift-click inserts the
item link into the chat input. Automatically queries server for
item info on first encounter.
Cache composite textures by input key so identical NPC equipment
combos share one GPU texture. Use DBC layout system for
ItemDisplayInfo texture component fields instead of hardcoded
indices (cross-expansion support). Selective player equipment
re-emission on item query response instead of broadcasting to
all players.
Default PLAYER_VISIBLE_ITEM layout to known WotLK 3.3.5a values
(base=284, stride=2) so equipment reads work immediately without
waiting for heuristic detection. Add equipment texture compositing
for humanoid NPCs over baked body textures using ItemDisplayInfo.dbc
region lookups (texture-only, no geoset changes to avoid invisibility).
Load third-person emote text templates (othersTarget/othersNoTarget)
from EmotesText.dbc fields 3 and 7 alongside existing sender text.
Build reverse lookup map from dbcId to EmoteInfo for incoming
SMSG_TEXT_EMOTE resolution. Other players now show proper emote
descriptions like "Player dances with Target" instead of generic
"Player performs an emote" text.
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 PE sections from WoW.exe into a flat virtual memory image so
MEM_CHECK returns real binary contents instead of zeros. Also mocks
KUSER_SHARED_DATA (0x7FFE026C) with Windows 7 version info.
Filter races/classes in character creation screen by expansion profile
constraints, add 10s server response timeout, and reset Warden crypto
state on disconnect so reconnections use the correct session key.
Expansion overlays allow each expansion to supplement the base asset data
via an assetManifest field in expansion.json, loaded at priority 50 (below
HD packs). The asset extractor gains --reference-manifest for delta-only
extraction. Also fixes CharSections field indices (VariationIndex=4,
ColorIndex=5, Texture1=6) across all DBC layout references.
Bags are now individual draggable ImGui windows (backpack + each equipped
bag) with per-bag toggle from the bag bar. B key opens/closes all. A
settings toggle under Gameplay lets users switch back to the original
aggregate single-window mode. Window width adapts to bag item name length.
Fix dismount by clearing local mount state immediately (optimistic) instead
of waiting for server confirmation, and allow buff bar right-click dismount
regardless of the aura's buff flag.
Fix other players appearing naked by queuing them for auto-inspect when
the visible item field layout hasn't been detected yet.
Vanilla CMSG_CAST_SPELL target mask is uint16 (not uint32 like WotLK),
the extra 2 bytes were corrupting packets. Also implement full bag
content tracking: extract container slot GUIDs from CONTAINER update
objects, set proper bag sizes, and populate bag items in inventory
rebuild.
- 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
