Erik b04d393329 feat(anim): Phase E.1 hook router + GameWindow wiring
Adds IAnimationHookSink + AnimationHookRouter for fan-out of animation
hooks to downstream subsystems (audio, particles, combat, renderer
mutators). GameWindow.TickAnimations now drains ConsumePendingHooks
every tick and broadcasts each hook via the router with the entity's
world position pre-computed.

The router is a composite sink: register N sinks once at startup, each
sees every hook. Registration is idempotent, unregister works, and a
throwing sink no longer poisons dispatch (each OnHook call is wrapped in
try/catch so one bad subsystem can't halt the whole animation tick).

A NullAnimationHookSink is provided for headless tests / offline mode.

6 router tests verify: single/multi sink fan-out, idempotent register,
unregister, throwing-sink isolation, null-sink no-op.

Total: 376 Core tests + 109 Core.Net = 485 (up from 479).

This closes Phase E.1 plumbing; E.2 (audio) and E.3 (particles) will
each register a concrete sink that translates their hook types into
real-world effects.

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.
