📄 Description

What: the rest of our World of Warcraft 3.3.5a notes, as discussed on #7: two client DLL notes, server-side AzerothCore modules, playerbots raid tactics, server operations, texture crashes and MPQ load order, HD character customization, addon development, and a new one on Blackwing Lair trash pulled through the floor (a Searing Totem plus a hit-sphere line-of-sight leak in the core).

Notes (all in knowledge/games/world-of-warcraft/):

  • per-item-skinned-addons-dll.md: proxy version.dll that attaches per-item skinned models (build 12340 addresses)
  • item-physics-and-capes.md: retail PHYS data stepped by a Box2D-style solver inside the same DLL
  • client-texture-crashes-and-mpq.md: BLP size/format limits that crash the client, MPQ priority, safe patch building
  • hd-character-customization.md: retail faces, hairstyles and hair colours on the HD human (CharSections, skin sections)
  • addon-development-335a.md: Lua 5.1 gaps, protected calls, guild bank, macros, a test harness
  • azerothcore-custom-modules.md: offline gathering, auction payout and restock, mail fix, manual progression and the module's AQ war
  • azerothcore-playerbots-server-ops.md: running the server with 1,500 bots: performance, builds, crashes, DB traps
  • playerbots-raid-tactics.md: kill order from raid marks, positioning, lockouts, a recursion crash
  • bwl-pulled-through-the-floor-hit-sphere-los.md: status: in-progress (the proposed fix passes an exact offline replica of the server's line-of-sight test but isn't deployed yet)

Checklist

  • um kb check passes (field notes)
  • um kb index regenerated (field notes), um kb check --index passes
  • no game files, extracted assets, decompiled code dumps or secrets
  • nothing that cheats other players or bypasses anti-cheat / DRM / ownership checks (self-hosted server; the DLLs only change how worn items are drawn)
  • versions, verification and what was NOT verified are written down
  • authored by: Claude Code (Opus 5.5) with RedSuper
