acdream had no application icon on either executable. Two marks now ship, built from the game's own material rather than drawn freehand: * Client - the retail mosswart head. Not an illustration of one: the actual creature mesh (Setup 0x02000B4F part 14, skin atlas 0x05001E11, ClothingBase 0x10000344) read out of client_portal.dat through acdream's own GfxObjMesh/SetupMesh port, then smoothed, lit and graded. Palette values are sampled from that texture, including the mustard belly the Mosswart lore calls a "foul yellow". * Launcher - a forged ring enclosing a barbed crescent, rebuilt from measurements of the retail wordmark and the acclient.exe icon resource. An original construction in the same visual language, not a copy of the trademarked logo. Its warm field matches the retail client icon. Three techniques carry the render quality, all in tools/IconForge: * PN-triangle tessellation (smooth.py). The retail head is 104 triangles and renders faceted. Each triangle becomes a cubic Bezier patch built from its own corner positions and normals, so the silhouette genuinely rounds rather than merely shading smoothly - and it needs no mesh connectivity, which matters because UV seams would otherwise pull apart. Normals are welded across coincident positions first, but only within a crease angle, so ear fins and tusk edges stay sharp. * Matcaps (ring.py). A Lambert rasterizer cannot produce chrome, because chrome is almost entirely reflection and there is nothing here to reflect. Sampling a lit-sphere image by the camera-space normal is the standard stand-in for an environment map. * Distance-transform bevelling (chisel.py). Flat shapes become chiselled metal by treating distance-to-edge as height. The height field is blurred before differentiating; without that the medial axis of each stroke shows through as a hatched ridge. Two facts worth recording, both discovered the hard way. Creature Setups define no upright pose in PlacementFrames, so the exporter must be handed the weenie's MotionTable id or all 17 parts stack on the origin. And a mosswart's eyes sit on the sides of the skull like a frog's, so a dead-on frontal turns them edge-on and the face stops reading as a mosswart at all; the hero angle is az 266 / el 32. Wiring: <ApplicationIcon> gives each executable its PE icon. The client's runtime window icon is embedded rather than copied beside the binary - a window icon has no sensible fallback if the file goes missing, and embedding survives single-file publish. WindowIconLoaderTests guards the resource names, which are coupled to LogicalName in the csproj by string alone and would otherwise fail only as a silently icon-less window. Both halves of the pipeline are deterministic and reproduce the committed PNGs byte-for-byte, so an accidental edit shows up as a diff. Solution builds clean; 14,378 tests pass on the standard hermetic lane filter, 0 failures. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Maintained .NET tools
Every .csproj under tools/ is part of AcDream.slnx. The complete Release
gate restores and builds these tools, so a missing personal checkout or an API
change cannot leave a tracked tool silently broken. They are diagnostic/manual
programs: the gate builds them but does not run data-dependent investigations.
| Tool | Purpose | Runtime prerequisite |
|---|---|---|
A8CellAudit |
Inspect landblock, EnvCell, portal, and collision topology. | Installed AC DAT files / the arguments documented by the program. |
dump-keymap |
Extract the retail master input maps and decoded actions. | Installed client_portal.dat. |
PesChainAudit |
Walk weather PES call chains and particle emitters. | Installed AC DAT files. |
ProjectileVfxAudit |
Audit projectile physics-script and particle-emitter VFX mappings. | Installed AC DAT files. |
RainMeshProbe |
Inspect rain surfaces, polygon sidedness, and generated mesh counts. | Installed AC DAT files. |
RetailTimeProbe |
Read retail time-of-day and sky state for comparison. | Windows, a running retail client, and process-read access. |
SetupInspect |
Dump Setup parts, placement poses, and animation frames. | Installed AC DAT files and a Setup ID. |
ShaderCompiler |
Compile the Vulkan GLSL shader set to committed SPIR-V. | Source and output directory arguments. |
SkyObjectInspect |
Inspect Dereth sky/day-group objects and texture data. | Installed AC DAT files. |
StarsProbe |
Audit sky-object geometry, UV ranges, and surfaces. | Installed AC DAT files. |
TextureDump |

Enumerate weather sky objects and their bounds. | Installed AC DAT files. |
WeatherSetupProbe |
Inspect the parts and surfaces of weather Setups. | Installed AC DAT files. |
Build the complete maintained graph with:
dotnet restore AcDream.slnx --locked-mode --force-evaluate
dotnet build AcDream.slnx -c Release --no-restore
Use pwsh ./tools/run-release-gate.ps1 for the authoritative bounded gate.
