Retail's ChatInterface::SetOpacity (0x004F3120) fades the WHOLE composited
window surface with one alpha; UiRenderContext.ApplyAlpha already gated
DrawSprite/DrawRect/DrawFill (since 1da697ec, pre-CH6) but DrawStringDat and
DrawString still passed applyAlpha:false, so text stayed sharp over a
translucent window. Both now route through the same chokepoint.
RetailWindowOpacityController (new) subscribes to a new
RetailWindowManager.WindowRegistered event and drives every registered
window's live Opacity from keyboard-focus state, applied to EVERY window
(chat, floaties, vitals, toolbar, ...) rather than retail's ChatInterface-only
scope — register row AP-190, retiring the stale AP-40 "fixed 0.75, no focus
transition" row in the same commit.
Verified retail's shipped opacity defaults from the decomp (constructor
literals, no cdb needed): the base ChatInterface ctor sets
DefaultOpacity=0.5/ActiveOpacity=1.0, kept unmodified by the four floating
windows; gmMainChatUI's own ctor overrides the main window to 1.0/1.0
(always fully opaque). acdream ships one shared global default (0.5/1.0)
rather than replicating the per-class override — also AP-190. The linking
invariant (raising default above active drags active UP; lowering active
below default drags default DOWN — never a clamp) is ported verbatim as
ChatOpacityLink in AcDream.UI.Abstractions, shared by the live controller
and the new Settings -> Chat tab's two linked opacity sliders.
Persistence: ChatSettings.DefaultOpacity/ActiveOpacity round-trip through
SettingsStore; Save pushes both through IRuntimeSettingsTargets.SetChatOpacity
into the live controller, no restart required.
Rider (CH6a/b re-review): strengthened the grip-media regression guard past
a bare SpriteFile != 0 check — ChatLayoutConformanceTests now drives each
live grip through a real UiRenderContext/TextRenderer (backed by the
in-memory RecordingGpuDevice test double) and asserts the draw call chain
actually queued sprite geometry, via a new TextRenderer.DebugSpriteSegments
test-only accessor.
Full Release suite 12,459 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
12,420/4/0). No subagents, no client launches (session hard constraints);
pending the next connected user gate for visual confirmation.

Applies the Opus review of Campaign CH slice CH3 (614a1e05):
- B1: UN-9 was a phantom divergence — ACE's CharacterOptions1.cs:47
OR-sum is 0x50C4A54A (its own comment confirms 1355064650), identical
to acdream's literal. The wrong 0x50C48D4A existed only in the research
doc. Row deleted, register §5 reverted to 4 rows, research doc corrected
with dated notes.
- S1/S4: AllegianceBroadcast (0x02000000) is a server-echoing channel —
ACE's GameActionChatChannel handler includes the sender in its real-name
Allegiance.Members broadcast (retail's DoAllegianceBroadcast has no
AddTextToScroll), so the client must skip its local optimistic echo, not
keep it. ChatChannelInfo.Legacy.IsSelfEchoChannel() now returns true for
it; RouteLegacyChannel's comment corrected; Turbine.IsSelfEchoChannel()'s
backwards comment rewritten truthfully.
- S3: retail's /a stays on the legacy AllegianceBroadcast bitflag until
StartupTurbineChatSystem successfully starts Turbine chat — "never
started" (TurbineChatState.Enabled == false) now falls back to legacy in
both LiveSessionCommandRouter.RouteChat and
DirectGameRuntimeCommandAdapter.TrySendChannel, while "enabled but no
allegiance room" still correctly refuses locally.
- S5: added a LiveSessionEventRouter test proving the Options.Replace ->
OnCharacterOptionsChanged seeding order, and RuntimeSettingsTargets /
GameWindowLiveSessionOwnershipTests tests proving the concrete
ICommandBus.Publish wiring and the single LiveSessionCommandSurface
construction site.
- S6: AP-181 rewritten to name both of retail's omitted pre-send checks
(IsMessageSafe silent-drop, then IsMessageSpam) and stop misattributing
either to RouteLegacyChannel, which has no such gates.
- N1-N7: CharacterOptionId moved below SocialActions so its doc comment
re-attaches; TurbineChatMembershipGate reuses TurbineChatDisplayNames
instead of a duplicate table; the gate-to-refusal-text mapping is now
shared via TurbineChatMembershipGate.ResolveRefusalText instead of
duplicated in both hosts; ChatSettings.Default now matches ACE's real
CharacterOptions2.Default (Roleplay/Society start off); a doc-comment
clarifies only the five Hear toggles are server-backed; the register's
§3 header recounted 129 -> 128.
Suite: 11,964 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline 11,957/4/0 + 7 new
tests). Campaign ledger CH3 review column updated to APPROVE-WITH-FIXES.

Phase L.0 (cont.) — fourth tab on the Settings shell. Mixes retail's
CharacterOptions2 chat-channel filter bits (Hear*Chat / TimeStamp /
FilterLanguage / AppearOffline) with a font-size slider that has no
retail bitfield equivalent.
ChatSettings record (9 fields):
· 5 channel filters: HearGeneralChat, HearTradeChat, HearLFGChat,
HearRoleplayChat, HearSocietyChat
· 3 display flags: ShowTimestamps, FilterProfanity, AppearOffline
· 1 visual: FontSize (10..20 pt)
Local-only this phase per the brainstorm — Hear*Chat flags affect
client-side display filtering only; the server still streams every
channel. Server-sync arrives later when the protocol round-trip is
in place.
SettingsStore grows LoadChat / SaveChat using the existing generic
SaveSection helper. All four non-keybind sections (display, audio,
gameplay, chat) now coexist non-destructively in settings.json.
SettingsVM grows the parallel chat state machine. HasUnsavedChanges,
Save, Cancel, ResetAllToDefaults all cover chat. Constructor signature
adds two more params; existing call sites updated.
SettingsPanel.RenderChatTab replaces the L.0-shell placeholder —
8 Checkbox calls grouped under "Channel filters" + "Display"
headers, plus a font-size SliderFloat. The "Coming soon" placeholder
test was retargeted from "Chat" to "Character" since Chat is no
longer a placeholder.
GameWindow wires SettingsStore.LoadChat / SaveChat + a TODO comment
for the future ChatPanel filter integration (read SettingsVM.ChatDraft
when filtering inbound chat lines).
13 new tests:
· ChatSettings record (3) — defaults pinned, value equality, with-
expressions
· SettingsStore chat (3) — missing-file → defaults, round-trip, all
four sections coexist
· SettingsVM chat (5) — initial draft, SetChat marks dirty, Save
invokes callback, Cancel reverts, ResetAllToDefaults covers
· SettingsPanel chat tab (2) — checkboxes + slider render only when
active
dotnet build green (0 warnings); dotnet test 1,289 / 1,289 green
(243 Core.Net + 373 UI.Abstractions + 673 Core).
