Erik d379a75984 feat(core): SurfaceDecoder — add PFID_P8, PFID_R8G8B8, and PFID_X8R8G8B8 
Entities using 8-bit palette-indexed textures (PFID_P8), uncompressed 24-bit
RGB surfaces (PFID_R8G8B8), and 32-bit packed-BGR surfaces (PFID_X8R8G8B8)
were all rendering as solid magenta. PFID_P8 uses the same palette-lookup and
isClipMap (indices 0..7 → fully transparent) convention as the existing
INDEX16 decoder, reading one byte per pixel instead of two. PFID_R8G8B8 and
PFID_X8R8G8B8 decode on-disk B,G,R[,X] byte order to R,G,B,255 RGBA8 output
for OpenGL PixelFormat.Rgba upload; the X padding byte in X8R8G8B8 is
discarded rather than forwarded as alpha.

168 tests green (85 AcDream.Core.Tests + 83 AcDream.Core.Net.Tests), including
9 new SurfaceDecoder tests covering correct channel mapping, clipmap
transparency, truncated-data fallback, and palette-missing fallback for P8.

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.
