Erik 83e8d06ea7 feat(app): GameWindow wires Chat/Combat/Spellbook/Items into session
Exposes Core state classes as public fields on GameWindow so plugins +
UI panels can bind directly, then calls GameEventWiring.WireAll inside
live-session setup to connect the parsed GameEvent stream to them.
HearSpeech (standalone GameMessage, not 0xF7B0-wrapped) is routed via
a separate lambda since it has its own dispatch branch.

After this commit, every server-sent event that the Phase F.1 / E.4 /
E.5 / H.1 parsers handle actually mutates client state live:

- Chat: ChannelBroadcast, Tell, TransientMessage, Popup, HearSpeech
- Combat: UpdateHealth, Victim/Defender/Attacker/Evasion notifications,
  AttackDone
- Spellbook: MagicUpdateSpell, MagicRemoveSpell, enchantment
  add/remove/dispel/purge
- Items: WieldObject, InventoryPutObjInContainer

WorldTime + Lighting added as public-field Core services so the
renderer and plugin API can read "current day fraction" / "active
lights" directly.

Build green, 602 tests still pass.

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.
