the name in the pack), size and an FNV-1a hash of the bytes read.

Worlds, the UGC server and the dashboard open the pair named in
resServer/cdclient-current (CDServer.sqlite without an fdb when there is
none). Worlds switch to a new pair on CDCLIENT_RELOAD between frames.

Appended at the end of MessageType::Master (46); the pin test is updated.
With names it tells a server which fdb copy and CDServer.sqlite to switch
to; without them it asks master to check the client's fdb now.

So a worker can make a new CDServer.sqlite without touching the shared
CDClient connection or the logger.

FdbSnapshot names copies cdclient-<hash>.fdb / CDServer-<hash>.sqlite, writes
them under temporary names and renames them in, keeps a pointer file naming
the current pair, removes old copies, and decides when a changed file has
settled enough to hash. Nothing in it logs, so it can run on a worker.

Each address's requests are counted per signed-in account (the dashboard's

upgrade counts under its account.

The dashboard's own loop is framed too, with a scope per module update. Frame time and stacked phase charts per server, the servers' loop summary, longest frames, packet handling times, the last 50 slow frames with a nested timeline, and profiling sessions (profiling_run, GM 8) drawn as a flame graph with folded stacks to download. PerfHistory keeps it in memory and is unit tested; the layouts are tested with node. Task 96.

An optional section after marker 3 carries the report's frame timing; older readers stop before it and reports without it still read. Phase times go with their count so readers with fewer or more phases read them. PROFILE_REQUEST and PROFILE_RESULT are appended to the master messages (44, 45). Task 96.

Profiler.h: frames, named scopes and phases, recorded on the main thread only (other threads' scopes do nothing). Per second: frames, total and longest frame time, a mergeable frame time histogram (TrafficStats::Histogram) and time per phase. Per report: the packet types that took longest, the worst frames and the frames over a threshold with their heaviest scopes. Profiling sessions merge every frame's scope tree for a while into one (folded stacks for flame graphs). Optional Tracy client (DLU_TRACY, off by default) gets the same frames and scopes. Task 96.

FdbMappedFile maps a file read-only (CreateFileMapping/MapViewOfFile on
Windows, mmap elsewhere) and falls back to reading it into memory when
mapping fails. FdbReader reads the table and column headers from it and
looks rows up by their first column through the fdb's own buckets,
decoding every integer as little-endian with bounds checks, so the rows
never get copied out of the file.
Tests write small fdb files (collisions, text, int64, nulls) and read
them both mapped and from memory.

The login request's memoryStats is a run of short parts with no separators

The traffic topic now carries each server's rates with its split by
peer (null for servers that report none), link statistics and gauges.
New routes: /api/diagnostics/network, /network/server (message types
and a 10 minute series) and /network/connections (remote ends grouped
by address). Addresses need the new network_ips permission; without it
each is a salted token. They stay in memory from the last report only.

Every server now splits its packet counts by peer: its own connections
(players on auth and worlds), its master link, or other servers (the
worlds on chat, every server on master, a world's chat link, which is
now counted too). HTTP requests carrying X-Darkflame-Server count as
another server's, the dashboard counts its own requests to the UGC
server, and each HTTP client address is counted. The report also gets
each RakNet connection's statistics (worlds name the player on it),
trimmed to the 32 busiest with the rest summed. Counting stays on the
main loop, except the dashboard's UGC fetches, which only touch the
locked recorder.

The client's render component sets the object's own position and
rotation on the root node it loads, over the stored ones, so a root's
turn never shows in game (its scale stays). NifFile now reads roots the
same way. LU Toolbox's .nif (root turned 90 degrees about X, the
NiLODNodes turned back) now stands up in icons and the dashboard's
views; every game .nif has an unturned root and reads as before.

What makes a model's files becomes a processing option like ray_backend

cmake/BuildInfo.cmake runs on every build and rewrites the generated

The third ray backend, so every machine has a library for it: Embree on x86
CPUs (embree), HIPRT on AMD and NVIDIA GPUs (hiprt), Embree through SYCL on
Intel Arc and Xe GPUs (embree-gpu).
- CMake option DLU_EMBREE_SYCL (off). dUgcServer/EmbreeSycl is a project of
its own built by a SYCL compiler (DLU_SYCL_CXX; icpx through ONEAPI_ROOT or
the path, or the open source DPC++'s clang++ through DPCPP_ROOT) as an
external project: Embree 4.4 with EMBREE_SYCL_SUPPORT, linked statically and
bound inside (-Bsymbolic, only its C functions exported, so it never meets
the servers' own Embree), and the GPU kernels (nearest hit skipping a ray's
triangle, any hit), into libdlu_embree_sycl next to the servers
- UgcRaysEmbreeGpu loads it the first time embree-gpu is asked for; one GPU for
the process (embree_gpu_device picks it), the workers take turns, the
occlusion rays in batches as for hiprt
- without the build, the library or a supported Intel GPU it falls back to
embree and says why (the UGC server's log at start, --make-model on stderr)
- the option names, the settings page, the dashboard's picker, /reprocessproperty
Verified here: the default build and ctest; the SYCL build with the open source
DPC++ 7.1.0 (compiles, links against oneAPI's libsycl.so.9, exports only its C
functions); on this machine (no Intel GPU) it loads, finds no GPU and falls
back to embree. Not verified: tracing on an Intel GPU (none here).
Check: on a machine with an Intel Arc or Xe GPU and oneAPI, configure with
-DDLU_EMBREE_SYCL=ON and run UgcServer --make-model x.lxfml out embree-gpu;
the UGC tests then compare it with Embree.

Embree 4 (always built) replaces the UGC server's own bounding volume
hierarchies (the nearest-hit one and the occlusion rays' any-hit one), with no
fallback to them. ray_backend is embree (default) or hiprt (optional build;
Embree when it can't be used).
Settings, stored options and stats that say builtin still read: it is embree
(UgcRays::Parse, UgcProcessOptions::Parse). The dashboard's picker,
/reprocessproperty and --make-model offer embree and hiprt.
Tests: the backends are compared with Embree (hiprt when built), Embree against
rays whose hits are known, and the clutter's occlusion against what the old
hierarchy worked out (296 vertices summing to 114.5, 26 open, 183 dark); the
pinned model hashes are unchanged with Embree.
Check: ray_backend=builtin in an ini still starts and uses embree; the
settings page offers Embree and HIPRT.

The path tracer that imitated LU Toolbox's Remove Hidden Faces took 17 to 100
times as long as the renders from 42 directions around the model, too heavy to
use. It goes with its settings (hsr_method, hsr_samples, hsr_bounces,
hsr_sample_spacing, hsr_min_points), its side by side tracing for GPUs and its
tests. The renders (UgcRender::VisibleFromAround) remove hidden faces as before
that method existed; their size is hsr_resolution (1024), and the memory
estimate counts their buffers again.
The hidden-face method is no longer a processing option: the dashboard's picker,
/reprocessproperty and --make-model take only the ray backend (the occlusion's)
and denoising. Options stored before (made_options, process_options,
ugc_process_runs, --make-model arguments) that name toolbox or fast still
parse; the word is skipped.
Check: the settings page has no hsr_method or path settings and has
hsr_resolution; /reprocessproperty embree toolbox still works (toolbox
ignored); models made with the defaults keep their hashes (UGC tests).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
New UGC settings (ugcconfig.ini and the dashboard's settings page):
- ray_backend: builtin (default), embree or hiprt (falls back to embree when
the build or machine can't); the hidden faces' paths and the occlusion rays
- hsr_method: toolbox (default, LU Toolbox's paths) or fast (the renders from
around the model), and hsr_fast_resolution (1024) for the fast one
- denoise: off (default) or oidn (icons; off until a build has it)
UgcProcessOptions (dCommon/UgcKeys.h) names the choices for everything that
passes them on ("embree fast oidn", any order, left out: the setting's).
UgcJobs::ApplyOptions puts a choice over the settings and MadeWith says what a
make used after fallbacks; a made model's stats.json records it (rays,
hsrMethod, denoise). UgcServer --make-model and --make-modular take the
choices after the folder and print the CPU time and what made it.
Check: the defaults make the same files as before; the settings page shows the
four settings under UGC; UgcServer --make-model model.lxfml out embree fast.

LDF_FROM_STRING (1.10.64, 0x010fa220) splits an object's config at
every comma and line break, leaves out empty entries and entries with
no '=', and sets each key=value it finds. The reader split at line
breaks only and parsed every piece, so an object with no config got an
empty entry of unknown type, and a value with a comma would have stayed
whole.
Live scene files are unchanged; objects in older client files with an
empty config no longer get the empty entry.

The heights of a terrain chunk (millions of floats in the big zones)
and the mesh index lists were read one value at a time; they are now
read in one read each, as the client does (ReadBytesTimes4 /
RAWReadU16 with a count). The values are the same.
Check in game: nothing (terrain reads the same, only faster).

The client reads a terrain chunk of a file older than version 32
(1.10.64):
- its color map as width x width BGRA pixels, keeping the
(width - 1) x (width - 1) before the last row and column, as RGBA
(RAWReadColorandLightMaps); the reader kept all the pixels as
written;
- its texture blend map's pixels as BGRA, kept as RGBA (0x0103aaf0);
- before version 31 no scene map, only a byte: the client's scene map is
all scene 0 (RAWReadSceneMap); the reader had none.
A chunk of width or height 0, which the client reads (no heights, no
color map), no longer fails the whole file.
Live terrain files are version 32, so they read as before.
Check in game: nothing to check (no live terrain changes).

ReadLvlObjectData (1.10.64, 0x0103ba20) changes an object's config as it
loads it:
- before version 47 a respawn time is in milliseconds: a float over 100
or any u32 becomes that many seconds, as a float;
- a model spawner (LOT 176 with spawntemplate 14) gets its subkey as its
blueprintid unless it has one, DisableModelBehaviors true unless set,
and preventRenderWrapping true;
- before version 44 an object with sceneIDOverrideEnabled gets
sceneLayerIDOverride 0.
LevelFile now makes the same changes. On live worlds 1906 spawners in
114 scene files of versions 45-46 have a u32 respawn time; the world
already divided those by 1000 but as an integer, so they now keep their
fraction (a 2500 ms respawn is 2.5 s, not 2 s). No live scene has a
model spawner; 62 objects of version 43 scenes get sceneLayerIDOverride.
Check in game: enemies and smashables respawn after the same time as
before on Forbidden Valley, Avant Gardens and Gnarled Forest.

SceneLoader::ReadLvlFile (1.10.64):
- chunked files: the file info chunk starts the file and gives where
the environment, object and particle chunks start, 0 for none
(DoLvlChunk, ReadLvlChunk1000); the reader walked the chunks one after
another by their sizes instead;
- older files: the editor settings are a u32 size and that many bytes
(SceneLoader::ReadEditorSettings, skipped by size); the reader took
them for a u32 and then a count of 12 byte points;
- older files before version 3 have no objects for the client ("Level
file is unsupported").
LevelFile now does the same. Every scene file on disk reads the same
objects as before.
Check in game: every world spawns its objects as before.

ReadLvlObjectData (1.10.64, 0x0103ba20) reads a scene object's last
field, from version 7 on, as a render technique count, and when it is
not 0 a 64 byte block and 133 bytes per technique (a 64 byte name, a
u32, a u8 and 16 floats) follow. The reader took the count for an
unknown u32 and read the next object from inside the techniques, and
read the u32 for every version. It also left the node type and glom ID
uninitialized when a file has none (or, for the node type, one outside
0-10); the client uses 1 for both.
The count is now SceneObject::renderTechniqueCount, the techniques are
skipped, and the defaults are the client's. Every scene file on disk
has no render techniques, so what they read is unchanged.

LevelPath::FromBuffer (1.10.64) changes two values as it reads a path:
- a property path's reputation multiplier outside 0-1000 becomes 0;
- a camera waypoint's FOV in a path older than version 11 is divided
by 1.25.
The reader kept both as written. Only camera paths of older client
files (versions 8-10) change; no live zone has either case.
Check in game: nothing to check (no live zone changes).

The client reads a spawner path's fields (LOT, respawn time, counts,
object ID) and a camera path's next path and rotate-player flag only
when the path is newer than version 3 (LevelPath::FromBuffer, 1.10.64:
pathVersion > 3). The reader read them for every version, which would
misread an older spawner or camera path from there on.
No zone file on disk has a spawner or camera path older than version 4,
so what they read is unchanged.
Check in game: nothing to check (no live zone changes).

The client reads a zone file's paths as a chunk of its own
(LuzFile::ReadLUZFile copies the u32-sized chunk, ReadLUZPaths reads
it, 1.10.64) and drops every path when it refuses any of it:
- a chunk version of 2 or more, or 10000 paths or more (ReadLUZPaths);
- a path of version 19 or more, 10000 waypoints or more, or a
waypoint with more than 99 name/value pairs (LevelPath::FromBuffer).
The reader read the paths straight from the file, trusting the chunk to
be well formed. It now reads the chunk by its size, reads the paths
from it with the client's limits, and when one is refused the zone has
no paths (logged), while the rest of the zone file still reads.
Every zone file on disk reads the same paths as before.
The unit tests' sample zones now give the path chunk its real length.
Check in game: moving platforms, NPC patrols and spawners work as
before on every world.

Scene transitions of versions 34-38 have five points. The client links
the scenes of the first and the last one (ZoneLoader::ReadZoneFile,
1.10.64: points[0] and points[count - 1], for every version); the scene
graph used the first two, so in those zones it linked a scene with the
one of the transition's second point instead.
Of the 130 five-point transitions on disk, six (all in one older client
zone) have a different scene at the second and last points; the rest
link the same scenes as before.
Live zones are unchanged.
Check in game: nothing to check (no live zone changes).

LuzReader::ReadScenes (1.10.64) keeps a zone's scenes by scene ID and
layer, so a later scene with the same ID and layer replaces an earlier
one. ZoneLoader::ReadZoneFile then goes through them in scene ID order
and
- leaves out every layer of a scene ID that has no layer 0 (General)
scene;
- before version 41 loads only the layer 0 scene of each ID; from 41 on
the other layers (Audio, FX) are loaded with it.
ZoneFile now keeps the scenes the same way, so the world loads the same
scenes as the client. No zone file on disk has a duplicate, a scene
without a General layer, or a non-General layer before version 41, and
their scenes are already in ID order: what every file reads is
unchanged.
Check in game: nothing to check (no live zone changes).

Zone files before version 33 have no scene IDs. The client gives each
scene its index in the file as its ID, -1 past 255, with layer 0
(LuzReader::ReadScenes, 1.10.64, via the LWOSceneID from the loop
index); the reader left every such scene at ID 0, so a zone with several
scenes had them all collide on one ID.
The version 30 zones on disk have one scene each, so what they read is
unchanged.
Check in game: nothing to check on live worlds (all are version 36+).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Zone files older than version 30 were refused. The client reads them
(1.10.64):
- LuzFile::ReadLUZFile reads a version below 20 as 20;
- LuzReader::ReadScenes reads a scene of a version 20-29 file as a bare
u32 SceneTable ID, with no file name;
- ZoneLoader::ReadZoneFile takes those scenes in SceneTable ID order,
looks each one up in the CDClient SceneTable and, when there is a
row, makes it a scene with the next index (0, 1, ...; -1 past 255) as
its ID and the row's sceneName as its file; a scene with no row is
left out.
ZoneFile now reads these files (FileFormatVersion::Oldest = 20 for
anything older), keeps the SceneTable ID on ZoneScene::sceneTableID,
and ZoneFile::ResolveSceneTable does the lookup the client does; the
world looks the names up in the CDClient SceneTable.
The only such file on disk (version 20) now reads.
Check in game: nothing to check on live worlds (all are version 36+).

A Guilds page (Moderation, permission guilds_manage, GM 5 by default): every guild with its name status, member count,
leader and age, a pending-only switch, and per guild its members (with ranks) and history (guild_events). Staff can
approve a guild name that waits for review, reject it (the guild becomes "Guild <id>"), rename a guild (same name rules
as the game, unique without regard to case), remove a member (a leader's guild goes to the next member, the last
member's guild is deleted) and disband a guild. Every change is audited and added to the guild's history, and the chat
server is asked (GUILD_CHANGED through master) to tell the online members. Pending guild names also show in the Review
Queue. Guild chat ("guild" in the chat log) counts as private chat like whispers and team chat (chat_private), with its
own channel filter and Prometheus counter.
Check on the dashboard: /guilds lists a guild made in game; approve/reject/rename/remove/disband update the in-game guild
window and name billboard of online members; the Review Queue shows a guild whose name waits for review.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The chat server is the guild authority (docs/Guilds.md). GuildManager keeps guilds in the database (IGuilds) and tells
clients through their worlds, with every outside dependency behind hooks so the rules are tested without a server:
- Create: name rules (3-30 of letters, digits, space ' - ., no space at either end or twice), the chat filter's deny
list refuses a name (BAD_NAME), names not on the allow list make the guild but wait for moderation (other players see
no guild name until then), a taken name (case ignored) is EXISTS, someone in a guild can't make one.
- Invite / answer: leaders and officers invite; the client's answers for not online, already in a guild, invite pending
and could not invite; one invite per player, answerable for 10 minutes and gone when the player logs off; a full guild
(guild_max_members) takes nobody. The new member is a recruit; the inviter hears the answer and gets the list again,
the other members get GUILD_ADD_PLAYER.
- Leave, and DLU's kick, rank and disband (the client has no controls for them): the leader kicks anyone, officers kick
veterans and recruits; a leader who leaves hands the guild to the highest-ranked, longest-serving member, and the last
one out ends it. Rank changes send everyone the list again (the client's GuildSetPlayerRank does nothing).
- GUILD_DATA for GUILD_GET_ALL, login/logout/world-change updates to guildmates, a guild that lost its leader (character
deleted) gets one again, and GuildChanged catches online players up with what the dashboard did.
- Every change is a guild_events row. Each character's world gets GUILD_GET_STATUS with the guild and the name others
may see.

The guild packets of the 1.10.64 client (docs/Guilds.md) as Serialize/Deserialize structs, laid out the way the client's

_CONFIRM, GUILD_ADD_PLAYER, GUILD_REMOVE_PLAYER, GUILD_LOGIN_LOGOUT and GUILD_DATA (ClientPackets), the world packet
TMP_GUILD_CREATE the create box sends, the chat packets the client sends through its world (GUILD_INVITE,
GUILD_INVITE_RESPONSE, GUILD_LEAVE, GUILD_GET_ALL), DLU's world <-> chat packets (GUILD_CREATE, GUILD_KICK,
GUILD_GET_STATUS as the chat server's guild update to a world, and GUILD_SET_RANK and GUILD_DISBAND appended to
MessageType::Chat after CREATE_TEAM) and the game message DisplayGuildCreateBox (626). Fixed-size names always keep a
NUL, since the client reads them as C strings. Enums eGuildCreateResponse, eGuildInviteResponse,
eGuildInviteFinalResponse, eGuildRank and eGuildLeaveReason. Nothing sends them yet.
Check: GuildPacketsTests compares every packet with the bytes at the client's offsets. Nothing to check in game.

LWOSCENEID and LWOSCENEID_INVALID move from dCommonVars.h to
dZoneManager/LWOSCENEID.h; only the zone code uses them. The layer half
is the scene's layer, now the new eSceneType (dCommon/dEnums) instead of
a uint32_t: General (0), Audio (1, the *_audio.lvl scenes named
"Audio") and FX (2, Nexus Tower's *_fxs.lvl scenes named "FXs"), the
three layers the zone files of every client on disk use. ZoneScene's
sceneType is an eSceneType too, so a scene's LWOSCENEID is built from it
directly, and the dashboard compares against eSceneType::General instead
of 0. The zone checksum still hashes the layer's number.
Check in game: every world loads (the zone checksum the client checks is
unchanged), Nexus Tower included.

Two fields of the scene files from before chunks were read for versions
the client does not read them for (SceneLoader::ReadLvlFile, 1.10.64):
- the "important" byte after the version and type is there only from
version 32 (SceneLoader::ReadLvlHeader, 0x010117d0: headerVersion < 32 sets it to 0);
- the five strings after the skydome's file are there only from version
34 (SceneLoader::ReadSkydomeInfo, 0x0102f550: headerVersion > 33); the reader took
them from version 33.
Seven scenes of the alpha leak (versions 31 and 33: Gnarled_assetsMIKET,
dennis_gnarled_forest_02/_03-ninja/_03-pirate_0, scale_TEST_2,
scale_test_2_0, scale_test_general) now read with all their objects.

The client reads a spawner path's activateOnLoad byte only when the
path is newer than version 8 (LevelPath::FromBuffer, 1.10.64:
pathVersion > 8) and otherwise keeps its default of 1
(Path::InitializeSpawnerInfo). The reader read the byte for every
version, which would misread an older spawner path from there on, and
its default was 0. The byte is now read from version 9, and an older
path's spawner is active on load as in the client.
No zone file on disk has a spawner path older than version 9, so what
the world spawns is unchanged.
Check in game: nothing to check (spawners on live worlds are unchanged).

Paths before version 3 are laid out differently (LevelPath::FromBuffer,
1.10.64: pathVersion < 3):
- the type is a u8-length wide string, "platform" for a moving platform
and anything else ("npc") for a movement path, instead of a u32;
- the flags and behavior u32s follow as in later versions;
- every waypoint, whatever the path's type, has a rotation, lock player
byte, speed and wait time and then its name/value pairs.
The reader treated the type name's first bytes as the type and misread
everything after it. The LUP group zones of the 0.179.12
client (lup_group_1b, _2a, _6a) now read with all their paths; one of
them read before with a garbage type on a waypoint-less path. Every
other zone reads the same as before (no live zone has a path older than
version 3).
Check in game: nothing to check on live worlds.

The pairs a waypoint carries (waypoint commands on movement and rail
paths, LDF config on spawner paths) are read by one helper,
ZoneFile::ReadLdfConfig, so the legacy path format can read them too.
Nothing read changes: every zone file on disk reads the same.
Check in game: nothing new; spawners and moving NPCs behave as before.
