Opus dual-lens review of 34e3a534+a975efd1 returned architectural
PASS-with-items / retail-fidelity FAIL. Every finding fixed:
- F1 (BLOCKER): deleted CharacterCreationSummaryPage's dead
_suppressNextFieldEvent latch. UiField.SetText never raises
OnFocusLost/OnSubmit, so the latch never had anything genuine to
suppress — it stayed armed until the player's own next real commit
and silently ate their typed name.
- F2: byte-re-derived gmCharGenMainUI::RecvNotice_
CharGenVerificationResponse @0x004e9030's jump table — Pending is an
explicit switch case landing on the SAME NameDBDown label as
Corrupt/DatabaseDown, and Undef/out-of-range falls through the
function's own unsigned-underflow default arm to that identical
label. Retail's dispatch has NO silent branch. ApplyCreationResponse
now produces a real rejection for Pending/Undef instead of a silent
reset; ReconcileDialogs maps them to NameDBDown. Corrects the wrong
"retail swallows Pending" claim everywhere it was repeated (plan doc,
Core.Net doc comment, Runtime doc comments).
- F3: skill rows now use the key/value template with
CharGenState::GetSkillScore @0x005C4B50 as the value (ported via the
new RetailSkillFormula.CalculateChargenScore /
ChargenSkillScoreResolver, wired through a new GetSkillScore
binding), not template 0/name-only; bucket headers are unconditional.
Writing this fix's own regression test surfaced a second, more severe
bug: CharacterCreationSummaryPage never wired _list.TemplateResolver
at all, so RebuildListbox has been a silent no-op since CC5 shipped —
fixed by threading templateResolver through the page's constructor,
matching every sibling UiTemplateListBox owner.
- F4: added the missing _errorMessageDialogContext one-outstanding
guard to the 0xF643 rejection dialog, matching
MakeErrorMessageDialog's own guard @0x004e8cc4 and the other four
sibling dialogs' shape (registered in CloseAllDialogs, suppress-
callback checked).
- F5: the Summary preview camera now seeds/re-derives retail's
zoomed-OUT eye (byte-decoded (0,-2.5,0.95) at gmCGSummaryPage::
InitializePage ~0x0047bd14-0x0047bd44) instead of Appearance's
zoomed-in default, via a new ChargenPreviewController
useZoomedOutEye flag.
- F6: retired AP-225 outright — re-derived the ListenToElementMessage
length gate is NUL-inclusive, so MaxNameLength=32 was always
byte-correct, not merely internally consistent.
- F7: amended AP-221 to cover the Summary preview's duplicate
one-shot-composition binding gap (CC5 duplicated the pattern instead
of closing it).
- F8: byte-decoded GetRandomReal @0x00563940's fmul operand at
0x007cd650 — an 8-byte double, not a 4-byte float — is EXACTLY
1.0/32767.0, not 1/32768. Added RollShadeLocked
(_random.Next(32768) * (1.0/32767.0)) and switched all six shade
rolls onto it.
- F9: evaluated porting retail's exact empty-name-commit no-op
(NUL-inclusive length==1 skips SetName entirely) and rejected it —
it would fight the F1 field-sync model by spontaneously reverting an
emptied field on the next unrelated revision bump. Kept the clear,
documented the tradeoff, filed AP-227.
- F11: filed AP-226 documenting retail's static pcProfessions/pcGender/
pcHeritage/pcTown label tables versus acdream's DAT-sourced labels,
including the non-human-heritage-renders-bare-"Heritage:" retail
quirk.
- F12: added exclude-current determinism (count-2 lists), Random-
clears-name, repeat-identical-rejection-reshows, and RebuildListbox
content tests (the last one found F3's TemplateResolver bug).
- F13: threaded an optional Random through GameRuntimeDependencies ->
LiveSessionController -> RuntimeCharacterCreationState, matching the
existing TimeProvider injection shape, closing the Slice-K
determinism hazard on a bot-reachable Randomize* command family.
- F14: RandomizeCharacterLocked now assigns _heritageId unconditionally
before the TryGetHeritage gate, matching retail's SetHeritageGroup
@0x005C67A0 (mHeritageGroup written before the DAT lookup).
Gates: Runtime 1726/0 (was 1722/0), App 5242/3 skips (was 5240/3),
Headless 166/0, Core.Net 993/994 (the one failure, NakEmissionTests
LossSoak, is a known pre-existing flake — passes standalone), full
solution Release build green.
