Use the shared absolute base-instance domain only for mesh transforms and subtract the published transform prefix for every live ordinary sidecar. Regenerate the production module and pin its hash.
Add real ordered-recording, committed-SPIR-V structure, and headless production-Vulkan pixel witnesses at nonzero prefixes, including receiver active/inactive invariance.
Mutations performed and restored:
1. Transform lookup -> local instanceIndex: MeshModernSharedIndexSpirvTests first failed Assert.Contains, item 368 not found in [27,377,27] (and the pixel witness found 0 dark pixels).
2. Selection sidecar -> absolute transformIndex: MeshModernSharedIndexOffscreenTests first failed: Expected a dark local-sidecar instance, found 0 matching pixels.
3. Published TextureIndexB -> 0: SharedTransformPrefix recording first failed Assert.Equal, expected 3, actual 0.
4. Receiver choice inverted: inactive first failed because expected mesh_modern was absent and only mesh_atmospheric was recorded; active failed conversely.
5. Offscreen shader directory -> copied test output: witness first failed the exact-path Assert.Equal (expected repo src/AcDream.App/Rendering/Shaders/spv, actual tests/AcDream.App.Tests/bin/Release/net10.0/Rendering/Shaders/spv).
Add paired depth-write variants for all five blended SetSurface families in ordinary and atmospheric Wb pipeline sets at both sample counts and in EnvCell. Select them only from the carried AlphaTestEnabled state, retain pure-Clip and Translucent override behavior, and cover disposal plus partial-construction rollback.
Correct the three stale depth oracles and the AP register count/temporary AP-232 overclaim.
Required restored mutations and first discriminating failures:
1. Wb StraightAlpha+Clip collapsed to depth-off: WalkStaticStreamPopulatorTests.ImmediateBuildingDetail_UsesExactResolvedSetSurfaceState failed at line 1278; expected wb-mesh-alpha-depth-write-1x, binds were wb-mesh-alpha-1x.
2. EnvCell raw Additive+Clip collapsed to depth-off: EnvCellAlphaDrawSourceTests.DetailOn_EveryEnvCellFamilyDrawsOnceInPlaceWithAuthoredOpacity failed at line 132; expected envcell-raw-additive-depth-write, actual envcell-raw-additive.
3. EnvCell non-Clip raw Additive forced depth-on: the same production transcript failed at line 132; first row expected envcell-raw-additive, actual envcell-raw-additive-depth-write.
4. Late Translucent|Clip override forced alpha-test/depth-on: the same production transcript failed at line 132; expected envcell-alpha, actual envcell-alpha-depth-write.
Resolve exact SetSurface blend, alpha-test, and fog state once during extraction and preserve it through recipe-10 prepared payloads, Wb/EnvCell command data, Vulkan pipelines, push constants, and both ordinary/atmospheric one-pass shaders. Preserve AP-240 Wb pure-Clip immediate opaque/A2C while EnvCell uses retail premultiplied Clip; detail-off routing remains unchanged. Correct AP-232 and register the remaining detail-off state divergence.

Replace the building and EnvCell detail replay with retail's exact single-pass stage result, including authored surface opacity, squared detail alpha, final-alpha clipping, and the original subset pipeline/order. Arm the ordered walk command in place to close#471, delete the replay pipelines/shaders, and advance prepared content to recipe 9.

The dense-Arwic re-measure crashed with VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST: between
ordered ranges the walk leaf draws (terrain, shells, sky, punch fans)
and RetailAlphaQueue flushes rebind the SAME set-0 storage slots to
their own sections, so the bind-once latch made the next range draw
against foreign buffers - out-of-bounds instance reads and a GPU
fault. Sections now re-bind on every DrawOrderedRange call, exactly
like the proven DrawPreparedAlphaBatchRhi; the once-per-frame ring
WRITES in PrepareOrderedStream (the actual measured cost) are
unchanged. The bind-once referee test flips to assert per-range
rebinds with unchanged draw coverage.
Suites: full Release build 0 warnings; hermetic 6,758/0.

The FW3.4 dense-Arwic pair triggered the +/-20% stop rule (+33.5% CPU
p50, 14x frame allocation). This slice removes the three measured
costs without changing GPU command order (the referee suites assert
identical recorded call sequences):
- WalkFrameDriver: Collect (ONE walk per frame - no GPU work; leaf
calls and flush points become a recorded event list; the driver
absorbed the renderer collection pass and exposes the visited sets)
+ Replay (prepare the whole stream once, then replay events,
interleaving DrawOrderedRange with leaf calls in the exact recorded
order). RunFrame = Collect+Replay for existing callers.
- WbDrawDispatcher: SubmitOrderedStream split into PrepareOrderedStream
(all sections + commands + merge runs uploaded once per frame) and
DrawOrderedRange (bind-once latch; per-run pipeline + DrawIdOffset +
DrawIndirectRangeRhi). Load-bearing correctness catch from the
implementation round: merge runs take FORCED BREAKS at the recorded
event marks - whole-stream merging must not fuse two segments that
retail separates with a leaf GPU call (shell, punch); the straddle
assert stays as a dead-code safety net.
- WalkProductionWorldData: WalkFrameStaticRecords carries an
ArraySegment into a per-frame grow-only arena; the per-cell
fresh-array copies (the 1.9 MB/frame alloc p50) are gone - zero
steady-state allocation after warmup.
Suites (lead-verified): full Release build 0 warnings; hermetic
6,758/0; Walk lane 209/1; InstalledDat Walk conformance 40/1
untouched. Next: the dense-Arwic re-measure against the same-session
baseline.

The walk-order submission layer over the existing RHI (plan section FW2):
- OrderedDrawStream: append-only walk-ordered draw commands
(GroupKey + transform + per-instance data + WalkDrawStage + cell
provenance), struct-of-arrays with one lockstep Reset (#193 shape).
The PortalPunch stage exists but has no FW2 submission path - the
submitter throws on it; punch emission lands with FW3 wiring.
- WbDrawDispatcher.OrderedStream partial: per-instance-first emission
(the deferred-alpha shape - command i owns instance i, walk order
survives into the indirect array), each SSBO section written once,
then one DrawIndirectRangeRhi call per maximal merge run. Runs are
built by pure-CPU BuildOrderedMergeRuns and may never span a stage,
pipeline-bucket, or cull boundary; ValidateMergeRun re-checks every
emitted run and throws (the campaign fail-loud rule). Nothing is
sorted, reordered, or dropped: N commands in, N indirect commands
out, covered exactly once.
- WorldDepthContract: retail world depth verified verbatim from the
decomp - Render::zfuncVal @0x00820e1c = 0x2, SetDepthBufferMode
@0x005a2d10 writes the enum directly as D3DRS_ZFUNC so the value IS
D3DCMP_LESS, applied by the surface-state applier @0x0059c80a with
Z-write toggled by blend; the LESSEQUAL sites are GameSky::Draw-local.
Seven world pipeline sites now cite the named constant (no value
changes).
- Plan updated: FW1 status block + gate amendment (the ten pose-stamped
retail traces supersede re-expressing the old-builder replay
fixtures; those retire with the old builder at FW4 and their
scenario classes re-verify at the FW3/FW4 connected gates).
Known FW2 scope notes recorded in the code: the building-detail
overlay replay is production wiring (FW3); the _drawCullModes scratch
may not interleave with a mid-flight RetailAlphaQueue scope (FW3
sequencing constraint). The pixel A/B equivalence proof rides FW3's
cutover toggle where a walk-driven scene first exists.
Suites: full Release build 0 warnings; Walk lane 154/1 skip;
hermetic 6,714/0 (+27 new).
