Build now completes successfully with zero errors.
The if (state == WorldState::IN_WORLD) block was missing its closing brace.
This was introduced during the large SP removal when methods were deleted with sed.
Now: 450 open, 450 close (balanced)
- Fixed corrupted header (removed orphaned code fragment)
- Restored NPC callbacks needed for online animations
- NpcDeathCallback, NpcRespawnCallback, NpcSwingCallback

- notifyInventoryChanged, notifyEquipmentChanged (SP persistence markers)

All online features preserved. Code should now compile.

CMSG_BUY_ITEM was missing the trailing uint8 bag field, causing the
server to silently drop undersized packets. Add handlers for
SMSG_QUESTGIVER_REQUEST_ITEMS and SMSG_QUESTGIVER_OFFER_REWARD with
UI windows for quest completion and reward selection.
Only SkillLine category 7 (Class) gets its own tab, giving the 3 spec tabs
(e.g. Discipline/Holy/Shadow for Priest). Weapon skills, racials, professions,
and utility spells all go into the General tab.
- Rewrite SpellCastResult enum to match AzerothCore 3.3.5a values (was misaligned, showing wrong error messages like "Not while trading" instead of "Unit not in front")
- Fix spellbook-to-action-bar drag-drop by using ImGuiHoveredFlags_AllowWhenBlockedByActiveItem for cross-window hover detection
- Fix player frame showing wrong character name by looking up activeCharacterGuid instead of always using characters[0]
- Clear playerNameCache on disconnect to prevent stale names across sessions
The particle emitter parser had three bugs causing OOM crashes during loading:
- Struct size was 496 bytes instead of correct WotLK 476 (0x1DC), misaligning multi-emitter models
- FBlocks were read as 20-byte M2TrackDisk instead of 16-byte FBlockDisk (no interp/seq prefix)
- parseAnimTrack had no cap on sequence count, allowing garbage data to allocate billions of entries
Left-click on action bar slots now casts spells/uses items instead of starting a drag. Right-click-drag rearranges slots. Spells can be dragged from the spellbook directly onto the action bar, replacing the old "Assign to" button row.
After accepting a quest, re-query the NPC so its marker updates from ! to ?. After completing a quest, re-query all nearby quest NPCs so markers refresh. Also remove completed quests from the log instead of just marking them.
The server only sends quest status packets in response to client queries. Send the query for each NPC with the questgiver flag (0x02) when it enters view so the ! and ? markers actually appear.
Parse SMSG_QUESTGIVER_STATUS and SMSG_QUESTGIVER_STATUS_MULTIPLE packets to track per-NPC quest status, render yellow/gray ! and ? markers in 3D world space above NPC heads with distance-based scaling, and show corresponding dots on the minimap.
Allow picking up consumables from inventory and dropping them onto action bar
slots. Items display their icon or name, can be used via click or hotkey
(1-0,-,=), and cleared with right-click. Adds useItemById to find and use
items from backpack by item ID.
Correct PLAYER_FIELD_INV_SLOT_HEAD default from 322 to 324 (UNIT_END+0xB0)
which was shifting every equipment slot by one position. Fix auto-detection
to validate against known 3.3.5a base. Change CMSG_AUTOEQUIP_ITEM to send
uint8 bag+slot instead of uint64 GUID, and add slot offset 23 for backpack
items in both auto-equip and use-item packets.
Enrich online inventory from local DB when server data is incomplete, add
resolveOnlineItemGuid fallback for sell/equip/use, use async enqueueTile for
initial terrain load, improve walk/run animation fallbacks, clear target on
loot close, and broaden equipability detection to include armor/subclass.
- Death screen with "Release Spirit" button sends CMSG_REPOP_REQUEST
- Detect player death/resurrection via health updates (VALUES and CREATE)
- Faction hostility map now built per-character race instead of hardcoded Human
- CharSections.dbc texture lookup enabled for all races (was Human-only)
- Fallback texture paths use race folder names instead of hardcoded Human
- Player name in unit frame is clickable for self-targeting
FactionTemplate entries like FT[7] (Defias) have all-zero group flags but are
hostile via their parent Faction.dbc base reputation. Load Faction.dbc, check
ReputationBase for Human race mask, and mark factions with negative base rep
as hostile. Also add symmetric group check and fix Faction.dbc field offsets
(ReputationRaceMask at fields 2-5, ReputationBase at fields 10-13).
FactionGroupMask bits are 1=Player, 2=Alliance, 4=Horde, 8=Monster.
The hostility check was using bit 4 (Horde) to detect monsters, causing
all hostile mobs to appear friendly/green.
Reset NPC animation to idle when health goes from 0 to >0 (respawn), prevent
dead NPCs from being moved by server movement packets. Fix faction hostility
to check factionGroup Monster bit and individual enemy arrays, not just
enemyGroup. Add level-based mob coloring: grey (no XP), green (easy), yellow
(even), orange (hard), red (very hard) for target frame and selection circle.
Smooth idle camera orbit without jump at loop boundary, click empty space to
deselect target, auto-target when attacked, fix critter hostility so neutral
factions aren't flagged red, add armor/stats to item templates, fix loot
iterator invalidation, show item template names as fallback, position drop
confirmation at cursor, remove [SYSTEM] chat prefix, show NPC names in monster
say/yell, and prevent auto-login on character select screen.
- Fix white hair: always override M2 type-6 texture with DBC hair texture when available
- Fix vendor sell: add sellPrice to ItemDef/ItemTemplateRow, use directly instead of empty cache
- Fix empty loot: skip loot window when corpse has no items and no gold
- Revamp spellbook (P key): tabbed UI (General/Active/Passive), spell icons from SpellIcon.dbc, rank text
- Clean up action bar: only auto-populate Attack and Hearthstone, rest assigned via spellbook
- Add talent placeholder (N key): 3-tab window with level/talent point display
- Fix ffplay cleanup: non-blocking waitpid with SIGKILL fallback to prevent orphaned audio processes
- Fix pre-existing getQualityColor visibility for loot window rendering
Fix spell cast target fallback using selected target instead of no-op tautology.
Fix SMSG_ITEM_QUERY_SINGLE_RESPONSE to always read 10 stat pairs (server sends
all 10 regardless of statsCount), fixing misaligned armor/stat reads. Fix XP gain
parser to read float groupRate + uint8 RAF instead of bogus uint32 groupBonus.
Add item icons and quality-colored names to loot window. Use actual character
appearance bytes for CharSections.dbc skin/face/hair lookups instead of hardcoded
defaults. Add weapon-type-aware attack animation selection (2H prioritizes anim 18).
Add readable spell cast failure messages and vendor sell hint.
Restore unconditional verticalAccel/effectStartTime reads in spline parser
with pointCount safety cap at 256. Load player hair texture from
CharSections.dbc instead of hardcoded path, and restrict render fallback
to not apply skin composite to hair batches. Change loot/gossip/vendor
windows to re-center on each open via ImGuiCond_Appearing.
Use getRemainingTileCount (pending + readyQueue) and processAllReadyTiles
to prevent loading screen from exiting before tiles are finalized. Auto-select
realm and character when only one is available.
Online world entry now shows a progress bar during character model,
terrain, and tile streaming. Fixed loading screen crash from calling
ImGui::NewFrame while a frame was already in progress. Log file is
now truncated on each launch instead of appending.
