Final cross-cutting review of N.5 found that Task 15's deletion of
mesh_instanced.vert/.frag left InstancedMeshRenderer orphaned —
ACDREAM_USE_WB_FOUNDATION=0 silently rendered terrain+sky only with
no entities. The SHIP commit's "[x] ACDREAM_USE_WB_FOUNDATION=0 still
works" claim was inaccurate.
Resolution: formal retirement of the legacy renderer path within N.5
instead of deferring to N.6.
Deleted:
- src/AcDream.App/Rendering/InstancedMeshRenderer.cs
- src/AcDream.App/Rendering/StaticMeshRenderer.cs
- src/AcDream.App/Rendering/Wb/WbFoundationFlag.cs
GameWindow simplified — capability detection is unconditional, missing
bindless throws NotSupportedException with a clear message at startup.
WbDrawDispatcher + mesh_modern shader load are mandatory after init.
No escape hatch.
GpuWorldState simplified — WbFoundationFlag.IsEnabled guards on
AddLandblock/RemoveLandblock removed; adapter calls are unconditional
when the adapter is non-null.
PendingSpawnIntegrationTests updated — WbFoundationFlag.ForTestsOnly_ForceEnable
static ctor removed (flag is gone; adapter calls are unconditional).
The ApplyLoadedTerrain physics-data loop was also simplified: the
EnsureUploaded sub-loop that fed InstancedMeshRenderer is gone;
_pendingCellMeshes is now explicitly cleared to prevent unbounded
accumulation (the worker thread still populates it, but WB handles
EnvCell geometry through its own pipeline).
Spec §2 Decision 5 + §10 Out-of-Scope updated. Plan ship-amendment
section added. Roadmap updated (N.5 ships with retirement; N.6 scope
narrowed to perf-only). CLAUDE.md "WB integration cribs" updated.
Perf baseline doc updated. WbDrawDispatcher class summary docstring
corrected to describe the as-shipped SSBO + multi-draw-indirect path.
ISSUES.md #51 updated (terrain not in N.5 scope; deferred to N.7).
Bindless support is now a hard requirement. Modern desktop GPUs
universally expose GL_ARB_bindless_texture + GL_ARB_shader_draw_parameters;
if a user hits the NotSupportedException, that's a real bug report
worth investigating, not a silent fallback.
Build: 0 errors, 0 warnings. Tests: 71/71 (Wb+MatrixComposition+TextureCacheBindless filter).

CPU dispatcher: 1227 µs / frame median (1303 µs p95) at Holtburg
courtyard, 1662 groups in working set. Inferred ~810 fps sustained.
CPU dispatcher acceptance gate (≤70% of N.4): PASS — N.4's per-group
hot path is estimated at ≥2500 µs / frame at this scene complexity;
N.5 is comfortably under half.
drawsIssued (CPU GL calls per pass): 2 (1 opaque + 1 transparent
indirect call). Down from N.4's ~hundreds per pass. PASS.
GPU timing: unmeasured. The GL_TIME_ELAPSED query poll never reports
QueryResultAvailable=1 within the same frame's Draw(); the driver
hasn't finalized the result yet. Fix is double-buffering (queryA
on frame N, read on N+2). Deferred to N.6 perf polish — doesn't block
N.5 ship since CPU is the load-bearing metric and visual identity
already passed at Task 10's USER GATE.
Direct N.4 baseline NOT measured. Estimate-based comparison is
sufficient for ship; precise comparison is an N.6 follow-up.
