game-shaders.js ports the client's techniques to one ShaderMaterial
program per family and variant: LEGOPPLighting (hemisphere lit sun,
ambient, fresnel rim, N.H^320 specular, the default reflection cube;
decal and non-decal textures, emissive, super emissive, glow, grayscale,
no ambient, AnimUV), BasicShaders and AlphaAsAlpha (lit or unlit, both
sides, alpha blend, alpha test, additive, animated alpha, two layers),
Metallic.fx polished metal and brushed steel with the client's metal
cubes, clear plastic, the Distortion (Ocean) layers, Flat Surf,
BrickWater, darklings, terrain meshes, flairs and the sky. The maths runs
on sRGB values as Direct3D 9 did; lights, specular, hemisphere and fog
blend between scenes; textures move by the .nif's texture transforms.
Programs are shared by every material with the same defines.
A Fog switch (off by default) adds the zone's fog to scenery and
terrain. Shaders the game doesn't draw in the world (footprints, drop
shadows, post-processing) are left out. Docs list the families, their
gameValues and what's approximated.

A "Scenes" choice in the world and property 3D views: every scene (as
before), the scenes the game keeps loaded around the camera or the followed
player (the scene under it from the terrain's scene map, the scenes its
transitions connect to, and the global scene, following as it moves), or
scenes picked from a list (world view). The lighting blends to the lighting
of the scene under the focus, as the client blends between scenes.
The scenery manifest now carries each object's scene, the zone's scenes with
their neighbours and lighting, and the scene map as runs (37 KB for Avant
Gardens); scenery-core.js finds the scene at a point exactly as ZoneScenes
does (checked against it on 2000 points of Avant Gardens).

The NexusDashboard-parity dashboard (dDashboardServer) and everything built on it on the experimental branch:
accounts, characters, properties and moderation tools, permissions shared with in-game slash commands, economy
reports, World 3D and property 3D views with client scenery, scheduled events (features, vanity changes, live
events, announcements, restarts), vanity files and events, the CDClient browser, the message inspector with saved
captures, chat filter tools, community challenges, live ops, the AI moderator helper, and the server-side changes
they need.
