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.
Load spell icons via Spell.dbc field 133 (SpellIconID) -> SpellIcon.dbc
(icon path) -> BLP texture from Interface\Icons\. Icons are cached as GL
textures and rendered with ImageButton, with cooldown text overlaid on the
icon. Falls back to truncated spell name text for missing icons.
Enhanced the C-key character screen with a 3-column layout featuring a 3D
character model preview (with drag-to-rotate), item icons loaded from BLP
textures via ItemDisplayInfo.dbc, and a stats panel showing base + equipment
bonuses. Fixed selection circle clipping under terrain by adding a Z offset,
and corrected faction hostility logic that was wrongly marking hostile mobs
as friendly.
Split inventory into bags-only (B key) and character screen (C key). Vendor window
auto-opens bags with sell prices on hover and right-click to sell. Add camera intro
pan on all login/spawn/teleport/hearthstone events and idle orbit after 2 minutes.
Add quest log UI, SMSG_MONSTER_MOVE handling, deferred creature spawn queue, and
creature fade-in/movement interpolation for online mode.
Quest details parser now reads all 6 choice + 4 reward item slots
(matching AzerothCore's fixed-size arrays) with bounds checking at
every step. Use loop index for quest ImGui IDs instead of questId to
avoid conflicts. Don't reopen gossip window while quest details are
showing.
Parse SMSG_QUESTGIVER_QUEST_DETAILS and show quest text with Accept/
Decline buttons. Vendor window now shows item names with quality colors,
stat tooltips on hover, player money, and closes properly via X button.
Suppress left/right-click targeting and interaction when the other mouse
button is held (both-button run forward).
Fix CMSG_GOSSIP_SELECT_OPTION missing menuId field (was causing
ByteBufferException). Add 12 quest opcodes and clickable quest items in
gossip dialog. NPC attack/death animation callbacks now work for both
single-player and server-spawned creatures, and SMSG_ATTACKERSTATEUPDATE
triggers NPC swing animations.
AzerothCore's ReadMovementInfo always reads fallTime regardless of flags.
Also write all four jump fields together when FALLING (remove nested
FALLINGFAR check), and use real millisecond timestamps via steady_clock.
Replace flat mesh rendering of additive/mod blend batches (blendMode >= 3)
with camera-facing point sprites using a soft radial gradient texture and
additive blending. Adds M2 particle emitter infrastructure (structs, shader,
parsing stubs) but disables emitter parsing — the assumed 476-byte struct
size is wrong for WotLK 3.3.5a, causing misaligned reads that explode RAM.
These batches are particle emitter placeholder geometry (glow halos,
light volumes) that render as visible transparent discs without a proper
particle system. Skip them entirely instead of attempting to render as
raw mesh geometry.
Disable depth testing for additive/mod blend mode batches so glow quads
render as proper light halos instead of visible transparent discs. Add
NPC swing callback to play attack animation (anim 16) when NPCs melee
in single-player combat.
Batches with the M2 unlit material flag (0x01) or additive blend modes
(3+) now skip lighting, shadows, and fog, emitting texture color directly.
Fixes lantern glow quads appearing as dull transparent circles.
Fix movement packets to include packed player GUID prefix so the server
tracks position. Fix inventory money display being clipped by child panels.
Add Back and Delete Character buttons to character selection screen with
two-step delete confirmation.
Right-click now attacks hostile NPCs (npcFlags==0) and interacts with
friendly ones in online mode. Parse UNIT_FIELD_FLAGS (59) and
UNIT_NPC_FLAGS (82) from update packets. Stop auto-attack when target
dies or despawns. Add CMSG_ITEM_QUERY_SINGLE/SMSG_ITEM_QUERY_SINGLE_RESPONSE
to populate inventory from server item objects and player slot fields.
