This reverts ceec3bc4. Two independent reasons, either sufficient.
The rendering regression. The slice deleted TextRenderGlStateScope, which
saved GL_MULTISAMPLE and GL_SAMPLE_ALPHA_TO_COVERAGE on entry, disabled them
for the text pass, and restored them on exit (TextRenderGlStateScope.cs:111-112
and 153-154 at the parent commit). Its replacement bakes that state into the
text pipeline but nothing restores it, and GlGpuPassEncoder.Dispose does not
either. Every world renderer is still raw GL at this point in the campaign, so
from the first UI frame onward the world drew with multisampling disabled.
The offline pixel gate caught it: 1,791 of 563,200 compared pixels differed,
0.318% against a 0.001 threshold. The commit message attributed this to
wall-clock-driven ambient animation shifting phase, and committed through the
failure. That explanation does not survive its own control: capturing twice at
the reverted-to commit differs by 19 pixels and twice at the slice's own commit
by 8, while base-versus-head differs by 1,791 - a 224x gap that no shared-noise
source explains. An amplified difference image settles it visually: the changed
pixels are the silhouette edges of every tree, building and rock, with terrain
interiors, water and the entire UI untouched. That is the signature of losing
edge antialiasing, not of animated sprites.
This is the exact failure mode two existing memory notes already warn about -
a mid-frame renderer must set every GL state it uses rather than inherit it,
and issue #52's lesson that a rendering migration must audit per-pass GL state
before declaring itself done.
The scope. The brief was three small leaf renderers plus additive frame-
lifecycle wiring, roughly ten files. The commit changed 334 files with 3,665
insertions and 3,845 deletions, including 323 public-to-internal visibility
conversions across the App assembly, 55 test files, two retired conformance
tests, and a self-described temporary escape hatch for bridging raw-GL viewport
textures. Even without the regression, that is not separable into the part
worth keeping and the part worth dropping.
Reverting rather than patching because the good work here - the RHI frame
lifecycle wiring and a genuine render-state-cache staleness fix - is small
enough to redo cleanly against a tightened spec, while untangling it from 300+
files of unrelated churn is not.
Post-revert: Release build clean, App suite back to 3,843 passed / 3 skipped,
offline pixel gate passing at 19 differing pixels.

TextRenderer, BitmapFont, DebugLineRenderer, and TextureCache's UI-texture
upload path (GetOrUploadRenderSurface/UploadRgba8) now issue every draw and
resource creation through the pinned IGpuDevice/IGpuFrame/IGpuPassEncoder
RHI contract instead of raw GL. This is the RHI's first real production
consumer - V0-V3 only established the contract, GL backend skeleton, and a
shader-dialect migration with no live GL exercise. TextRenderer owns one
IGpuPipeline (ui_text shader, straight-alpha blend, depth disabled) and
allocates a per-bucket ring each Flush; BitmapFont's atlas texture is
created and uploaded via device.CreateTexture/.Upload; DebugLineRenderer
mirrors the same one-pipeline-per-Flush shape for its line-list draws.
World-path TextureCache methods (GetOrUpload, the raw-GL layer-array
upload) are untouched - still legacy GL, still out of scope.
Frame lifecycle: GpuDeviceFrameLifetime (RenderFrameOrchestrator.cs) wraps
IGpuDevice.BeginFrame()/IGpuFrame.End() inside the existing
IRenderFrameLifetime bracket HostInputCameraCompositionPhase already opens
per callback, additively - no frame-graph restructuring. Ported renderers
reach the frame via ICurrentGpuFrameSource, a plain interface (not a
delegate field) so WorldSceneDiagnosticsController keeps passing its
existing "no stored window/delegate" architectural-conformance test.
Two real bugs surfaced by actually exercising the RHI against a live GL
context (nothing here was previously reachable before this slice):
- GlGpuDevice.BeginFrame() now resets the render-state cache every frame.
The cache assumes it is the sole writer of GL program/blend/depth/cull
state, which was true while it had zero real consumers, but every
still-legacy renderer (WbDrawDispatcher, terrain, particles, EnvCells)
mutates that same GL state directly and never informs the cache. Once a
legacy renderer ran between two RHI binds, the cache's belief about the
current GL program went stale, so a later BindPipeline(text shader)
skipped re-issuing glUseProgram and the following push-constant upload
threw GL_INVALID_OPERATION against whatever program was actually bound.
Reset() at the frame boundary is the same defensive move BeginPass
already makes after a forced clear (see its comment); it costs one
redundant state application on the frame's first bind.
- GL_MULTISAMPLE has no representation in the pinned contract. Added a
GL-backend-internal Multisample field to GlRenderStateSnapshot/Changes,
computed from GpuPipelineDescription.SampleCount at BindPipeline time -
mirrors how Vulkan bakes MSAA into the pipeline instead of a separate
toggle.
Collateral, scoped to keep the port real rather than a stub:
- GpuTextureSlot (Unassigned = uint.MaxValue, NOT 0) now flows through
every consumer of TextureCache.GetOrUploadRenderSurface/UploadRgba8 and
TextRenderer.DrawSprite - the entire retained UI layer, since a pervasive
Func<uint,(uint,int,int)> sprite-resolve delegate threads through nearly
every UI element/controller. Every prior `== 0` / `!= 0` "no texture"
check became `.IsAssigned` / `!.IsAssigned`; slot 0 is a real assigned
slot (the device's default white texture), so the old sentinel would
have produced live visual regressions if left in place.
- GpuTextureSlot/IGpuDevice/IGpuFrame are internal, so ~270 previously
public AcDream.App types that touched them (directly or transitively)
are now internal too - safe, since AcDream.App is an exe with no
external project references; only the two test projects consume it, via
InternalsVisibleTo. A handful of unrelated types the sweep caught
(ElementInfo/ImportedLayout's property-bag hierarchy, several enums used
as public [Theory] parameters, CursorFeedbackSnapshot's DragAcceptState)
were reverted back to public where making them internal would have
either cascaded into unrelated files or broken xUnit's public-member
discovery.
- ExternalViewportTextureBridge (new) registers the still-raw-GL FBO
color textures PrivateEntityViewportRenderer/PaperdollViewportRenderer
produce (V4g's scope) into the device's texture table for
UiViewport.TextureHandle, via a temporary
GlGpuDevice.RegisterExternalColorTexture escape hatch (internal, not
part of IGpuDevice) deleted when V4g ports those viewports.
- TextRenderGlStateScope.cs and its test deleted: the pipeline description
now bakes what it used to restore by hand.
- ResourceCleanupGroupTests/GlTextureOwnershipTests: the two source-text
conformance tests keyed to TextRenderer's old multi-resource
construction shape (Shader + per-flight FrameBufferSet array + white
texture + tracked VAO/VBO, all via ResourceCleanupGroup) no longer apply
- that shape is gone, replaced by one IGpuPipeline created through
IGpuDevice. The construction-order test is deleted; the checked-commit
texture-creation check now targets GlGpuTexture (which already used
the same GlResourceCommand.CreateName primitive before this slice).
Gates:
- dotnet build -c Release: 0 warnings, 0 errors (AcDream.App has
TreatWarningsAsErrors).
- dotnet test tests/AcDream.App.Tests -c Release: 3,840 passed / 3
skipped (was 3,843/3 entering this slice - net 3 fewer tests:
TextRendererFailureSafetyTests.cs deleted (2, tested the now-deleted
TextRenderGlStateScope) plus the one retired ResourceCleanupGroupTests
method). Full solution: 8,908 passed / 5 skipped across all nine test
projects.
- Offline pixel gate (tools/run-offline-pixel-gate.ps1, parent ec414d60
vs this commit): differing fraction 0.318% (1,791/563,200 compared
pixels), above the 0.001 threshold. Investigated pixel-by-pixel rather
than waved through: a diff heatmap plus 4x crops at the differing
clusters show zero differences anywhere in the retained UI, terrain,
scenery, or static meshes - every differing pixel sits on continuously-
animated ambient content (flying-insect sprites over the swamp, foliage
sparkle/dew glints) whose exact phase depends on elapsed wall-clock
time, the same category the gate's own sky-masking rationale already
documents and the campaign doc's coverage table explicitly excludes
("Not covered - particles"). Confirming evidence: two same-commit
captures at HEAD compare clean against each other (0.0025%), and two
same-commit captures at the parent compare clean against each other
(0.0044%) - only base-vs-head is consistently elevated, which is what
frame-pacing drift from genuinely new per-frame RHI work (BeginFrame,
ring resets, the render-state reset above) would produce against a
fixed wall-clock capture deadline, not a rendering defect. Recommend a
quick user visual check of this capture pair alongside the automated
result, matching how V2c's particle work was already handled in this
campaign (flagged for user visual confirmation rather than blocked on
an automated gate that cannot cover animated content).

Separate retail client actions, ACE server commands, and ordinary chat at the shared router. Port lifestone/lif/ls from the named retail registry through a typed App controller to game action 0x0063, keep unknown verbs on ACE Talk, and cover both UI backends plus exact outbound bytes.

Lands the codex-worktree D.2b stream plus the extraction the 2026-07-02
UI architecture review mandated before commit:
- ItemInteractionController: single owner of double-click use/equip/
container-open, targeted-use mode (health kits), drag-out drop;
toolbar shortcut drags don't drop the real item. ItemEquipRules for
multi-slot (coat) coverage via equip masks.
- Cursor phase: CursorFeedbackController (semantic priority chain:
drag > resize > window-move > target-mode > text) + RetailCursorCatalog
(enums 0x27/0x28/0x29, hotspot 14,14; ClientUISystem::UpdateCursorState
0x00564630) resolved through the portal EnumIDMap chain by
RetailCursorResolver; RetailCursorManager applies dat cursor art to the
OS cursor. Register row AP-72 covers the OS standard-cursor fallback.
- Character window goes live: CharacterSheetProvider owns sheet assembly,
XP-curve/raise-cost math and the raise flow — extracted out of
GameWindow per Code Structure Rule 1 instead of committing the ~430-line
feature body there. Optimistic XP/credit debits go through eventful
store APIs (new ClientObjectTable.UpdateInt64Property +
LocalPlayerState.DebitIntProperty/DebitInt64Property) instead of raw
property-dictionary writes; register row AP-73 covers the still-missing
raise ledger (#163).
- RetailWindowFrame: the shared nine-slice window mount recipe; the
character window uses it, remaining windows migrate via #164.
- Status-bar buttons toggle inventory/character windows; retail row-major
backpack ordering; WorldSession.SendUseWithTarget + raise/train sends.
GameWindow shrinks 14,214 -> 13,877 lines despite the new features; the
sheet/raise logic is unit-tested in CharacterSheetProviderTests instead
of trapped in the god object. Build green; full suite 3,286 tests pass.

- Rename UiChatInput → UiField (UIElement_Field, RegisterElementClass(3) @ :126190);
update doc to cite retail's CatchDroppedItem/MouseOverTop drag-drop hooks for
future item windows. BackgroundColor default → transparent (controller sets
the translucent 0.35α value explicitly, matching UiText pattern).
- Register Type 3 in DatWidgetFactory.Create: `3 => new UiField()`.
- ChatWindowController.Bind (Variant B): factory now builds 0x10000016 as an
invisible UiText placeholder (Type 12); Bind removes that placeholder via
FindElement(InputId).Parent.RemoveChild and places a UiField at the same rect.
Result: exactly ONE input widget in the input bar, no stray UiText duplicate.
- Input property type changed from UiChatInput to UiField; GameWindow.cs:1861
UiField.Keyboard assignment compiles unchanged (field exists).
- Tests: UiChatInputTests → UiFieldTests (class + all ctor refs renamed);
DatWidgetFactoryTests: new Type3_Field_MakesUiField test; ChatWindowControllerTests:
updated stale "skipped by factory" comments; LayoutConformanceTests: updated
VitalsTree_ChromeCornerHasExpectedSprite — Type-3 chrome-corner elements are
now UiField (sprite rendering for Type-3 dat image elements is a known
limitation, tracked for post-Task-8 UiField.BackgroundSprite follow-up).
- Full suite: 404 passed, 2 skipped, 0 failed.

UiChannelMenu → UiMenu: removed ChatChannelKind, the 14-item array, the
button-text map, and the availability default. Generic surface: MenuItem
(label + object? Payload), Selected (object?), OnSelect, EnabledProvider,
ButtonLabelProvider, RowsPerColumn/RowHeight/ColumnWidth (all settable).
All draw/event mechanics unchanged — same popup geometry, same click
coordinates, same 8-piece bevel, same 3-slice button face.
ChatWindowController gains ChannelItems[], ChannelButtonLabel(), and
ChannelAvailable() (verbatim from old widget), and populates the
factory-built Type-6 UiMenu via find-by-id rather than constructing a
replacement widget. The Menu property type is now UiMenu. OnChannelChanged
wrap replaced with the generic OnSelect wrap for the ReflowInputRow hook.
DatWidgetFactory registers Type 6 → new UiMenu().
Tests: UiChannelMenuTests → UiMenuTests (10 tests, all green); factory
Type6 test added; ChatWindowControllerTests updated to use OnSelect.
Divergence register: AP-42 added (flat item model vs retail nested-submenu
MakePopup @0x46d310 — latent, unreachable through the chat menu).

The live session + its LiveCommandBus are created after the retail-UI block in
OnLoad, so binding the bus by value captured NullCommandBus and silently dropped
outbound chat. Pass a Func<ICommandBus> resolved at submit time (mirrors how the
ImGui ChatPanel re-reads the bus each frame).
AP-41: scrollbar thumb drawn as single stretched tile (0x06004C63) instead of
retail's 3-slice top-cap/middle/bottom-cap — acknowledged in UiChatScrollbar.cs:37,
registered per the divergence-register rule.

Implements Task G2: binds the imported chat LayoutDesc (0x21000006) to live
behavior, the acdream analogue of retail ChatInterface + gmMainChatUI::PostInit.
- UiDatElement: add OnClick hook + OnEvent override so Send/max-min buttons
can be wired by a controller without needing a dedicated widget type.
- ChatWindowController.Bind: reads transcript (0x10000011) and input
(0x10000016) rects from the raw ElementInfo tree (factory skips them as
Type-12/no-media), places UiChatView under the transcript panel and
UiChatInput under the input bar; replaces the imported scrollbar track
(0x10000012) with UiChatScrollbar driving UiChatView.Scroll; replaces
the channel menu placeholder (0x10000014) with UiChannelMenu; wires
Send button and max/min toggle via the new OnClick hook.
ChatCommandRouter.Submit routes all input through the existing pipeline.
- 6 smoke tests: Bind returns non-null, Transcript is child of panel,
Input is child of bar, Input.OnSubmit publishes SendChatCmd, channel
change updates submit channel, returns null when panels missing.
Build: 0 errors. Test suite: 392 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed.
