Erik 5b84b0785d fix(anim): 3 motion bugs — remote anim dropped, walk->run not resent, wrong class byte
Bug 1: remote chars never animate, just teleport.
Root cause: when OnLiveMotionUpdated transitions a remote entity from
Ready to a locomotion cycle (cmd=0x0007 RunForward), the
_remoteLastMove timestamp is still pegged to the last position update
from BEFORE the motion change (often >300ms old). On the very next
TickAnimations, stop-detection signal 1 immediately fires
(now - last.Time > 300ms), and the sequencer is flipped straight back
to Ready. Result: the run cycle flashes for one frame and is gone.
Fix: when we enter a locomotion cycle from a non-locomotion one, stamp
_remoteLastMove[guid].Time = now and drState.LastServerPosTime = now
so the stop-timer starts a fresh 300ms window from the transition.

Bug 2 + 3: Our own player's walk/run toggle not broadcast when only
Shift toggles mid-move.
Root cause: PlayerMovementController's motion-state-change detection
compared only (ForwardCommand, SidestepCommand, TurnCommand). When
the user walks (W) then adds Shift mid-stride, ForwardCommand stays
WalkForward but outForwardSpeed jumps 1.0 -> runRate and localAnimCmd
swaps Walk -> Run. 'changed' stayed false, no MoveToState broadcast,
server still thought we were walking. Retail observers saw walking.
Fix: extend the diff to include outForwardSpeed, input.Run (hold-key),
and localAnimCmd. Any of them flipping forces a new MoveToState.

Bug 4: Wrong MotionCommand class byte reconstruction.
Root cause: OnLiveMotionUpdated's heuristic OR'd the sequencer's
current-motion class byte with the wire-received low 16 bits, producing
values like 0x41000007 for RunForward (actual retail value is
0x44000007). Cycle key lookup uses only low 24 bits so the animation
mostly-worked, but the wrong class byte broke stance-aware code paths
and any downstream consumer that keys off the class.
Fix: route ForwardCommand through MotionCommandResolver.ReconstructFullCommand
(same path already used for Commands[] items) — retail-exact class
byte recovery via a reflection-built enum lookup table.

Build + 711 tests green.

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.
