Erik 7007758293 docs(research): animation-pipeline decompile audit — no real gaps 
Ground-truth audit of acdream's animation pipeline against retail
decompile (chunk_*.c), cross-referenced line-by-line with our code.
Previous audit relied on ACE and got wiring claims wrong (said our
PlayAction path was orphaned when it's wired via OnLiveMotionUpdated).

Findings:
 - PerformMovement dispatcher (FUN_00529a90) matches our MotionInterpreter.
 - apply_current_movement cycle priority (FUN_00529210) matches our
   OnLiveMotionUpdated sequencer path.
 - Commands list → PlayAction wiring matches retail.
 - Falling / Jump / Dead substate routing matches.
 - Frame-timing epsilon + negative-speed playback matches.

The agent's "hit-react missing" claim turned out to be wrong: the
referenced FUN_0048d760 call passes 32-bit IDs shaped like MotionCommand
values but user-confirmed retail shows NO body animation on damage, so
vtable +0x9c is almost certainly emit-effect / play-sound / spawn-
particle — not a motion play. Not an animation gap.

Open follow-up: CreateObject initial Commands list is parsed but not
replayed when the entity hydrates (minor; rare case).

Not a follow-up: on-hit combat feedback (particles, damage numbers).
That's a separate feature, not an animation pipeline concern.

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.
