Combat state/UI:
- Split attack intent from server-confirmed auto attack in GameHandler.
- Add explicit combat state helpers (intent, confirmed, combat-with-target).
- Update player/target frame and renderer in-combat indicators to use confirmed combat.
- Add intent-only visual state in UI to avoid false combat feedback.
Animation correctness:
- Correct combat-ready animation IDs to canonical ready stances (22/23/24/25).
- Remove hit/wound-like stance behavior caused by incorrect ready IDs.
Classic/TBC/Turtle melee reliability:
- Tighten melee sync while attack intent is active: faster swing resend, tighter facing threshold, and faster facing cadence for classic-like expansions.
- Send immediate movement heartbeat after facing corrections and during stationary melee sync windows.
- Handle melee error opcodes explicitly (NOTINRANGE/BADFACING/NOTSTANDING/CANT_ATTACK) and immediately resync facing/swing where appropriate.
- On ATTACKSTOP with persistent intent, immediately reassert ATTACKSWING.
- Increase movement heartbeat cadence during active classic-like melee intent.
Server compatibility/anti-cheat stability:
- Restrict legacy force-movement/speed/teleport ACK behavior for classic-like flows to avoid unsolicited order acknowledgements.
- Preserve local movement state updates while preventing bad-order ACK noise.
Resolved a melee desync where attacks could fail unless constantly moving through target.
Movement opcode handling:
- In 0x006B compatibility path, prefer compressed-move batch detection before weather alias routing.
- Route 0x006B payloads shaped like SMSG_COMPRESSED_MOVES sub-packets to handleCompressedMoves().
Root/unroot state synchronization:
- Added handling for SMSG_FORCE_MOVE_ROOT and SMSG_FORCE_MOVE_UNROOT.
- Added handleForceMoveRootState() to apply server-authoritative ROOT flag locally.
- Send CMSG_FORCE_MOVE_ROOT_ACK / CMSG_FORCE_MOVE_UNROOT_ACK with current movement payload and counter.
Melee facing stability:
- Added periodic facing sync during auto-attack (MSG_MOVE_SET_FACING) when angular drift to target exceeds threshold.
- Keeps server front-arc/facing checks aligned while stationary meleeing.
Noise reduction / stream hygiene:
- Consume optional legacy/system packets safely: SMSG_FRIEND_LIST, SMSG_IGNORE_LIST, SMSG_ADDON_INFO, SMSG_EXPECTED_SPAM_RECORDS.
Validation:
- Rebuilt successfully with cmake --build build -j32.
Introduce data-driven opcode registry with canonical and alias sources:
- Added Data/opcodes/canonical.json as the single canonical LogicalOpcode set.
- Added Data/opcodes/aliases.json for cross-core naming aliases (CMaNGOS/AzerothCore/local legacy).
Added generator and generated include fragments:
- tools/gen_opcode_registry.py emits include/game/opcode_enum_generated.inc, include/game/opcode_names_generated.inc, and include/game/opcode_aliases_generated.inc.
- include/game/opcode_table.hpp now consumes generated enum entries.
- src/game/opcode_table.cpp now consumes generated name and alias tables.
Loader canonicalization behavior:
- OpcodeTable::nameToLogical canonicalizes incoming JSON opcode names via alias table before enum lookup, so implementation code stays stable while expansion maps can use different core spellings.
Validation and build integration:
- Added tools/validate_opcode_maps.py to validate canonical contract across expansions.
- Added CMake targets opcodes-generate and opcodes-validate.
- wowee target now depends on opcodes-generate so generated headers stay current.
Validation/build run:
- cmake -S . -B build
- cmake --build build --target opcodes-generate opcodes-validate
- cmake --build build -j32
Classic: synchronized Data/expansions/classic/opcodes.json to /home/k/Desktop/classicopcodes.h with exact symbol/value parity (0 missing, 0 mismatches).
WotLK: synchronized Data/expansions/wotlk/opcodes.json to /home/k/Desktop/azerothcoreOpcodes.h and aligned symbol names to AzerothCore naming.
Logical opcode layer: expanded include/game/opcode_table.hpp and src/game/opcode_table.cpp to include missing canonical opcode symbols required by synced tables, and removed legacy alias fallback block so canonical names are used directly.
Gameplay/handler updates included from ongoing fixes: duel/taxi stale opcode cleanup, level-up/sound handling adjustments, and related parser/packet references updated to match canonical opcode identifiers.
Validated by successful full build: cmake --build build -j32.
handleMonsterMove called MonsterMoveParser::parse() directly (WotLK
format with extra uint8 after PackedGuid) instead of going through
the polymorphic packetParsers_->parseMonsterMove(). Added parseVanilla
override to ClassicPacketParsers so classic/turtle use the correct
vanilla format.
Update field extraction in both CREATE_OBJECT and VALUES handlers to check
specific fields (maxHealth, level, faction, etc.) before power/maxpower range
checks. In Classic 1.12.1, power indices 23-27 are adjacent to maxHealth (28),
and maxPower indices 29-33 are adjacent to level (34) and faction (35), so
range checks like "key >= powerBase && key < powerBase+7" were incorrectly
capturing those fields.
Add build-aware WoW.exe selection and runtime global patching for Warden
SYSTEM_INFO, EndScene, WorldEnables, and LastHardwareAction chains. Fix
Classic opcodes and auth session addon data format for CMaNGOS compatibility.
Bag bar: left-click drag bags to swap positions using CMSG_SWAP_ITEM
with INVENTORY_SLOT_BAG_0 (255). Local optimistic swap for instant
feedback. Camera controller now respects ImGui WantCaptureMouse.
Vendor auto-open bags only triggers once per session.
Fix opcodes: CMSG_GAMEOBJECT_USE 0x01B→0x0B1 (typo caused
SMSG_FORCEACTIONSHOW spam), CMSG_CANCEL_AURA 0x033→0x136,
SMSG_SELL_ITEM 0x1A4→0x1A1.
Replace 2D screen-space ding rings with real WoW LevelUp.m2 particle/geometry
effect. Fix FBlock particle color parsing (C3Vector floats, not CImVector bytes)
which was producing blue/red instead of golden yellow. Spell effect models bypass
particle dampeners, glow sprite conversion, Mod→Additive blend override, and all
collision (floor/wall/camera) to prevent camera zoom-in. Other players' level-ups
trigger the 3D effect at their position with group chat notification. F7 hotkey
for testing.
- 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.
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.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
- 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
Checkbox in Settings > Gameplay > Loot section. When enabled, all items
are automatically sent CMSG_AUTOSTORE_LOOT_ITEM on loot response (same
as right-click looting each item). Gold always auto-loots regardless.
Setting persists in settings.cfg as auto_loot=0/1.
- Mute button: small [M] button alongside minimap zoom controls, turns red when active; directly sets AudioEngine master volume to 0, restores on unmute; persists in settings.cfg
- Original Soundtrack: checkbox in Settings > Audio that controls whether custom original music tracks (file: prefix) are included in zone music rotation; when disabled, only WoW MPQ tracks play; persists in settings.cfg
- ZoneManager.getRandomMusic() now filters file: paths when OST is disabled, falling back to full list if zone has no non-file tracks
