Erik 1b3387f991 refactor(terrain): chunk-based TerrainChunkRenderer matching ACME architecture 
Replace the single-giant-buffer TerrainRenderer with TerrainChunkRenderer
that groups landblocks into 16×16 chunks, each with its own VAO/VBO/EBO.
Matches ACME's ChunkMetrics/ChunkRenderData/TerrainGPUResourceManager
pattern:

- Pre-allocated max-size VBO (~3.75MB) + EBO per chunk with DynamicDraw
- Incremental glBufferSubData uploads per landblock slot (no full rebuild)
- Fixed slot layout: slot = (localX * 16 + localY), vertBase = slot * 384
- EBO contains only indices for occupied slots → tight draw calls
- One DrawElements per chunk with chunk-level AABB frustum culling
- Empty chunks auto-dispose GPU resources

Streaming-friendly: add/remove a single landblock touches only its slot
in the chunk buffer, not the entire terrain.

acdream

Experimental modern open-source Asheron's Call client in C# / .NET 10.

Status: pre-alpha, not playable. Phase 0 only — dat file asset inventory.

Stack: .NET 10, Chorizite.DatReaderWriter for dat parsing. Silk.NET + Avalonia planned for rendering/UI (not yet wired up).

Requires: A retail Asheron's Call install (Turbine/Microsoft property — supply your own). Set ACDREAM_DAT_DIR environment variable to the directory containing client_portal.dat, client_cell_1.dat, client_highres.dat, and client_local_English.dat, or pass it as the first CLI argument.

Layout

  • src/AcDream.Cli/ — console app that dumps asset counts from a dat directory
  • references/ — local read-only reference material (ACE, ACViewer, WorldBuilder, DatReaderWriter, holtburger, retail AC install). Gitignored.

Run

dotnet run --project src/AcDream.Cli -- "C:\path\to\Asheron's Call"

Or set ACDREAM_DAT_DIR and run without args.
