WalkFrameDriver executes one full static-content frame from the walk's
turns so GPU command-buffer order equals retail's walk order. One rule
does the interleaving: the accumulated OrderedDrawStream flushes
through SubmitOrderedStream immediately before EVERY non-stream draw
(sky, terrain slice, cell shell, punch fan, alpha barrier).
Turn script, all decomp-cited and two of them corrected in review:
- Interior flood: per cell IN FLOOD ORDER, shell first then contents
(PView::DrawCells @0x005a4840: DrawEnvCell @0x005a4abe precedes
DrawObjCellForDummies @0x005a4b0d).
- Landscape: sky once, terrain per active slice, then blocks
far-to-near; per cell the building turn precedes the cell's outdoor
statics (DrawSortCell @0x0059f140).
- Building (DrawBuilding @0x0059f2a0): the BLD probe event stays at
entry, but the ENTIRE body - alpha barrier, portal passes, shell -
sits inside retail's gfxobj[deg_level]!=0 gate @0x0059f2d3, and the
order is FlushAlphaList @0x0059f30b -> the two-pass punch/look-in
walk -> THEN the shell draw @0x0059f345. The driver review caught
both the missing gate and a shell-before-punch inversion; fixed
with the addresses cited.
Walk seam: three additive default-implemented IWalkEventSink hooks
(OnLandscapeCellTurn / OnBuildingTurn / OnBuildingShellTurn /
OnPunchGeometry) - every existing sink and all FW1 conformance
fixtures unchanged. WalkLandBlock gains LandblockId for the cell-id
encoding. Leaf draws go through IWalkFrameLeafRenderer so FW3.2b-2
wires the real renderers and the referee suite runs on fakes +
RecordingGpuDevice.
Flagged for FW3.2b-2/FW4 adjudication (documented in code):
FlushFartherThan(building distance) vs retail flush-all
FlushAlphaList(0f); terrain-before-statics within the landscape turn.
Suites: full Release build 0 warnings; Walk lane 200/1 skip;
InstalledDat Walk conformance 40/1 untouched; hermetic 6,752/0.

Render::deg_mul is auto-tuned by frame load and SWUNG between oracle
captures: doorway-still ran right after the heavy terrace-edge capture
with the multiplier depressed (mul <= 0 puts thresholds at/below ideal,
so 001e/0026/002f select the portless level 1 - retail's zero look-in
floods, reproduced exactly at mul = 0), while every other fixture pins
~ +0.99 (thresholds at max). The recon session's "-0.99" live dump was
real - taken under the same cdb load. RetailFrameWalk now exposes the
multiplier; the doorway test pins 0, the rest use the default.
foundry-entry: frames 1-66 reproduce exactly; the F67-F79 standing
segment diverges ONLY in building 0036's intra-building DC order
(retail 116,118,11d vs replay 11d,116,118). The BSP-traversal microscope
pins the flip to 0036's ROOT plane (N=(0,0,-1) D=2.8): replay eye z
2.33 (d=+0.47, NEG-first) vs retail behaving as d<0 (POS-first) - a
structural ~0.5 m frame question (positionPush(2)/part-scale), only
adjudicable live. Turnkey probe:
tools/walk-oracle/fw1-f67-viewpoint-probe.cdb.
Fixture status: nine of ten fully conformant; foundry-entry exact
through F66 with the 13-frame order segment parked on the probe.
Suites: Walk 127/1 skip; hermetic 6,687/0.

Three final pins complete the still-fixture set: (1) the CELL portal
side decode is the INVERSE of the 0x2 bit (uniform with the building
convention; the doorway-still flood proved it - ov=2 n=3 exact, and
foundry-deep stays green); (2) interior frames key the landscape order
off the OUTSIDE-projected landcell (get_outside_cell_id - derived from
the camera origin); (3) the outdoor pview has draw_landscape=FALSE so
look-in floods discard exit portals - the ov=0 pattern of every traced
look-in. CONFORMANT: foundry-deep (every frame), doorway-still,
street-outdoor, terrace-center, terrace-edge (the #456 acceptance
pose), cathedral-arrival - full frames identical to retail. The moving
four diverge only at punch-edge frames (walkabout F9, foundry-entry
F67) - pose-timing sensitivity parked in the driver Skip note.

Three pinned corrections close the outdoor frame: (1) the camera basis
RE-pinned to +Y-forward - the terrace-edge fixture EXTERNAL ground
truth (the ledge faces the F518 vista, east) overrules the walkabout
motion sweep, whose camera was mouse-turned off the run line; (2)
alwaysDrawObjects (.data default 1 @0x00820ed4) drawn into the
DrawSortCell gate - cell contents draw for every cell of an in-view
block; (3) the building portal side decode data-pinned as the INVERSE
of the cell 0x2 bit (the sweep winning arm). Street result: all 13
buildings in retail exact order (a9b3003c in, aab50002 correctly
absent), punches at exactly 001a and 0022 opening the exact first
cells 16e/164. SOLE remaining delta: look-in flood depth (mine 1 cell,
retail 3-4) - the doorway-still fixture adjudicates the interior flood
in isolation next.

The offline degrade probe proved the mechanism: every Holtburg building
carries PORT nodes ONLY in its level-0 GfxObj (out to ~24-48 m); every
degraded level has zero. Retail walks the CURRENT degrade level BSP
(part->gfxobj[deg_level]) - that is what limits look-in punches to the
nearest buildings. WalkBuilding gains the degrade ladder +
SelectDrawingBsp (band pick; UpdateViewerDistance hysteresis is a port
TODO), the walk selects per viewer distance, the adapter builds
per-level BSPs, and the stab-list load rule (CLandBlock::init_buildings
@0052fd80: a full-res block loads exactly its buildings portal stab
cells) replaces load-everything in the landscape builder. The sweep now
shows clean rosters with all far-building punches gone; remaining
deltas: the near buildings 001a/0022 (50 m/28 m center distance vs the
48 m band edge - sphere-adjusted distance/hysteresis to port) and the
one ring-1 frustum boundary pair (aab50002/a9b3003c).

RetailFrameWalk composes the ported machinery into retail frame shapes:
SmartBox::RenderNormalMode rooting (camera-cell low word < 0x100),
PView::DrawInside + the DrawCells event half (interior pview, the
traces pv=009d4a80), LScape::draw (per-view visibility, blocks
far-to-near, per-block cells far-to-near, buildings at their cell turn)
and RenderDeviceD3D::DrawBuilding (BLD at entry before the degrade
check; two-pass BSP portal walk per active view on the outdoor pview,
the traces pv=009d4b08). WalkLandscape ports the block grid +
draw_check_blocks/landcell_check visibility (192 m/24 m pitch,
viewer-relative, union across views, never downgrade). Six composition
tests: outdoor far-to-near emission, degrade-entry event, interior
ov=0/ov=1 shapes, rooting, complete view unwind.
