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).

Restore Vitae's omitted penalty paragraph, replace the invented character summary with gmCharacterInfoUI's ordered report and property meanings, preserve authored translucent body surfaces, and initialize the end-session button in its visible Normal DAT state.
Release build and all 5,830 tests pass with five intentional skips. Connected visual gate pending.

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.

- UiClickablePanel: new UiPanel subclass with OnClick action + HandlesClick=true
so row clicks survive whole-window-Draggable ancestor frames.
- CharacterStatController overhaul (Pass 2):
- Tab bar button states: SetButtonStateRecursive walks each tab group container
(0x10000228/229/538) setting UiButton.ActiveState="Open" (Attributes) or
"Closed" (Skills/Titles) via UIStateId enum string names from DatReaderWriter.
- Row click: 9 rows become UiClickablePanel; sel[] mutable box drives footer/highlight.
- Toggle: clicking the same row deselects (→ footer State A); click a new row
updates title="Attrib: value", line-1 label="Experience To Raise:", line-1
value=cost, line-2="Unassigned Experience:" in both states.
- Row highlight: BackgroundColor=HighlightBg (semi-translucent gold) on selected row.
- Raise buttons (0x10000246 ×1 + 0x100005EB ×10): hidden initially; shown on
selection with ActiveState="Normal" (affordable) or "Ghosted" (cost=0 or unaffordable).
CollectButtonsById tree-walk finds ALL copies of the button across tab-page mounts
(not just the last-registered _byId copy) so all instances are controlled.
- CharacterSheet: AttributeRaiseCosts long[] (Strength…Mana raise costs in retail
display order; cost=0 → max/disabled row demos the Ghosted button state).
- SampleData.SampleCharacter: fills AttributeRaiseCosts[9] — Strength/Quickness=0
(maxed), Focus@10→110 matching the retail screenshot (spec §4).
- 35 new tests (total 673 pass) covering: row click→footer B title/line1/line2,
toggle deselect→footer A, switch row, highlight set/clear, raise button
hidden/Normal/Ghosted/deselect, tab Open/Closed states, GetRaiseCost helper,
GetRowName helper, SampleData fixture sanity.
Console.WriteLine("[CharacterStat] Row click: index=N → selected=N (Name)") fires
on every click for the user's live verification in the studio.

Root cause: the sub-layout 0x2100002C (design H=337px) mounted into tab slot
0x1000022B (H=575px) via ShouldMountBaseChildren. ElementReader.Merge takes the
derived (sub-layout) H=337 as canonical, so the background element's first
ApplyAnchor call captured _amB=238 and the list box captured _amB=65 — both
stayed at their 337px-parent sizes even though the slot is 575px.
Fix: CascadeHeight in LayoutImporter.Resolve mirrors retail's
UIElement::UpdateForParentSizeChange. When ShouldMountBaseChildren fires and the
slot is taller than the base design, every full-stretch background child has its
height cascaded: Top+Bottom anchors → stretch, Bottom-only → pin-to-bottom,
Top-only/None → unchanged. This propagates the correct bottom margins through the
entire subtree before the first render frame.
Layout result (confirmed via headless screenshot):
- List box grows from 160px → 398px (9 rows × 44px ≈ 396px)
- Footer elements move from abs Y≈307 → abs Y≈545 (matching retail dump)
- Separator moves to abs Y≈535
Row constants updated: RowHeight 44px, IconSize 24px, RowPadX 4px, IconGap 6px.
Footer State-A text corrected per spec: title="Select an Attribute to Improve",
line-1 label="Skill Credits Available:", line-1 value=SkillCredits (96),
line-2 label="Unassigned Experience:", line-2 value=UnassignedXp (formatted N0).
CharacterSheet.UnassignedXp (long, retail InqInt64(2)) added.
SampleData.SampleCharacter().UnassignedXp = 87_757_321_741L.
5 footer tests renamed + assertions updated; SampleCharacter_UnassignedXp_IsSet added.
639 tests green.

Redo of the character pilot per faithful-port rules. The previous pilot GUESSED a text
report and put it on the wrong window. The decomp (verified by dumping acdream's
importer-resolved tree) shows LayoutDesc 0x2100002E is the tabbed Attributes/Skills/Titles
window: its tab-content slot 0x1000022B mounts sub-layout 0x2100002C (gmAttributeUI) which
chains into the gmStatManagementUI header. The importer ALREADY mounts every content element
(FindElement resolves name 0x10000231, heritage 0x10000232, PK 0x10000233, level 0x1000023B,
total-XP 0x10000235, XP meter 0x10000236 → UiMeter, list box 0x1000023D) — EventId was a red
herring (the dat id lives in _byId, not the widget's EventId field).
CharacterStatController (port of gmStatManagementUI::UpdateCharacterInfo 0x004f0770 +
UpdateExperience 0x004f0a70 + UpdatePKStatus 0x004f00a0) binds those real elements: name,
heritage, PK status, level, total XP, the XP-to-level meter fill, and the six innate
attributes in the list box. Studio (--layout 0x2100002E) now renders the actual panel
content, not an overlay. 16 controller tests green; full App suite stays green.
Refinements with known decomp sources (follow-ups): tab-button active/inactive state so the
3 tabs draw their sprites; exact label wording from the StringTable (table 0x10000001 →
dat 0x31000001); the full AttributeInfoRegion row template (column-aligned values + raise
buttons). CharacterController (text-report 0x2100001A) retained for that separate sub-panel.

Task A — CharacterController (LayoutDesc 0x2100002E)
- CharacterSheet.cs: data record for all fields used by the report sections,
with retail property-id citations per field (DateOfBirth 0x62, TotalPlayTime
0x7d, NumDeaths 0x2b, SkillCredits 0xb5/0xc0, AugmentationStat 0x162,
EncumbranceVal 0x5/0xe6).
- CharacterController.cs: static Bind(layout, data, datFont) wires element
0x1000011d (m_pMainText, confirmed gmCharacterInfoUI::PostInit 0x004b86f0) as
a UiText; LinesProvider builds the report. Report section order mirrors
gmCharacterInfoUI::Update (0x004ba790):
1. UpdatePlayerBirthAgeDeaths 0x004b8cb0 — birth/age/deaths
2. UpdateEnduranceInfo 0x004b8eb0 — vitals (H/S/M cur/max)
3. UpdateInnateAttributeInfo 0x004b87e0 — 6 attrs InqAttribute 1,2,4,3,5,6
= Strength, Endurance, Quickness, Coordination, Focus, Self
4. UpdateFakeSkills 0x004b8930 — skill credits (InqInt 0xb5 / 0xc0)
5. UpdateAugmentations 0x004b9000 — aug name (InqInt 0x162 switch 1..0xb)
6. UpdateLoad 0x004b8a20 — burden cur/max/pct
Element 0x1000011d imports as UiText (Type 12); multi-line text set via
LinesProvider — same pattern as ChatWindowController transcript.
- SampleData.SampleCharacter(): plausible retail-scale CharacterSheet fixture.
- FixtureProvider.Populate case 0x2100002Eu: CharacterController.Bind with
SampleData.SampleCharacter + VitalsDatFont.
- CharacterControllerTests.cs: 10 pure data-wiring + content tests (no GL/dats).
Task B — Studio panel picker → main menu bar
- StudioWindow.OnRender: replaced the floating "Studio" toolbar window (kToolbarH
40px) with ImGui.BeginMainMenuBar / EndMainMenuBar (kMenuBarH 22px). Panel
picker combo now lives in the always-on-top menu bar and cannot be occluded by
Tree/Canvas/Props panes. paneY reduced from 40→22, freeing ~18px for the canvas.
Build: dotnet build green (0 CS errors; DLL-lock warnings are AcDream.App being
live — not compile errors). Full suite: 619 passed, 2 skipped.
