Modern open-source C# .NET 10 Asheron's Call client. Faithful port of retail client behaviour to Silk.NET with a plugin API.

Add ParticleRenderer that draws every live particle from the shared ParticleSystem as a billboarded quad. Unit quad VBO + per-instance (pos, size, color) VBO with glVertexAttribDivisor for one draw call per emitter. Billboards using the camera's basis vectors so quads always face the viewer. Fragment shader does a procedural radial falloff (no texture pipeline needed — raindrops / snowflakes read as soft dots). AttachLocal emitters get re-centred on the camera each frame so the rain volume follows the player per r12 §7. Two-pass render splits additive from alpha-blend emitters so blend state flips once per kind rather than per-emitter. Wired into GameWindow.OnRender after static-mesh draw with depth write off (particles occluded by walls but don't self-occlude). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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 directoryreferences/— 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.
