todo: reference photography complete — door-recess and night gaps closed
Fetched from Commons: el-capitan-entrance/ (Andreas Praefcke, CC BY 3.0) for the hero door recess (the missing isolated entrance angle), and el-capitan-night/ for a night/marquee pair (next-door theatre; proximity evidence only). Deliverables are gitignored (Art/reference/ + reference notes); this commits only the TODO closure and the notes doc is gitignored too.

- [x] Keep the character as a reusable NPC prefab: a visible body, a collision capsule, and a head-height check that the camera does not clip at 1.60 m — for when NPCs/pedestrians are wired in (`0.2.0+`), not the `0.1.0` player. Done 2026-11-07: `AGigLineNPCPerson` (C++), ACharacter with capsule half-height 83 cm / total 1.66 m (head at ~1.66 m, so a 1.60 m camera does not clip), the MPFB human on the built-in mesh as the visible body, `AutoPossessAI` for pedestrians; confirmed spawned feet-on-Z-0 and rendered in `Screenshots/review-npc-prefab` (☑ approved 2026-11-07).

- [x] Establish a consistent scale test, named export presets, and repeatable import settings. Scale test = the three-cube calibration scene (`Art/blender/scaletest/`, regenerable via `Tools/scale_test_export.py`); named export preset `ue_metric_v1` (FBX settings in that script); named import preset `ue_metric_v1` (`FbxImportUI` settings in `Tools/ue_scale_test_import.py`). Both scripts are the templates for production asset export/import.

- [A] Collect reference photography for manual façade work. Local only, never committed: `Art/reference/` is gitignored. **72 images in eleven folders**: hero façades to 4k, the El Capitan Theatre exterior series, premiere-night staging, Ovation Hollywood, the north side, and the Lee Drug neighbour. Gaps largely closed. Still missing: a clean isolated frame of the door recess and a night frame of 6840 itself.

Local only, never committed: `Art/reference/` is gitignored. **74 images across 13 folders**: hero façades to 4k, the El Capitan Theatre exterior series, premiere-night staging, Ovation Hollywood, the north side, the Lee Drug neighbour. **2026-11-08:** both open gaps closed from Commons — `el-capitan-entrance/` (Andreas Praefcke, CC BY 3.0: isolated hero entrance + entrance detail) fills the door-recess gap, and `el-capitan-night/` adds a night/marquee pair (CC BY / CC BY-SA, next-door theatre — proximity evidence only for the hero).

- [x] Download reference photography for the two north-side buildings inside the 50 m buffer — TCL Chinese Theatre (OSM way 424105908, 6925 Hollywood Blvd) and Madame Tussaud's (way 424105889, 6933 Hollywood Blvd). Done 2026-11-06 with `Tools/commons_fetch.py` against the Wikimedia Commons API: eleven frames in the local `Art/reference/north-chinese/` and `Art/reference/north-tussauds/`, provenance in each `sidecar.json`, nothing committed.

- [x] Model hero façade for the El Capitan Entertainment Centre site. **Second pass built 2026-11-07** (proportions recalibrated from the 2009 photograph: entablature 3.4 m, parapet 2.2 m, architrave and cornice bands, square pedestals — the first pass had 5.7 m of blank wall above the capitals and read as a warehouse). **First pass built 2026-11-07** (`Tools/hero_facade_build.py` → `Art/blender/hero/hero-facade-2026-11-07.blend` + JSON part report with evidence per part → `Tools/ue_hero_facade_import.py` → `/Game/Hollywood/ElCapitan/SM_HeroFacade`, 1892 tris, 4 materials, placed on the measured building line). Six columns at 4.96 m over the 25.75 m frontage, plinth, three portal flights (5 risers, not the old 8), entablature 2.2 m, parapet 1.6 m with motto band and medallions. **Screenshot approved** (`Screenshots/review-hero-portals`, `review-hero-facade-front/oblique`). Next pass: banner and window placement, then materials.

- [x] Model surrounding block frontage. **Done 2026-11-07, screenshots approved.** The five remaining south-side buildings verified for the block (`Geo/verification/2026-11-06-el-capitan-block.md`) are exported in place from the OSM blockout by `Tools/export_block_frontage.py` -> `Tools/ue_import_block_frontage.py` -> `/Game/Hollywood/Frontage/`, and staged by the demo builder: 6922, 6902, 6838 El Capitan Theatre, 6822 Budget, 6806-6820, 6800 Lee Drug. **Adding them exposed a pre-existing placement bug**: UE south is +Y (the south sidewalk is Y +718..+1447) but the hero facade sat at Y -1450 (north side) and X -12024..-9420, i.e. 26 m east of its own footprint and on the wrong side of the street; the two north-side buildings were likewise on the south side. The hero is now at X -13336 / Y +1307 (inside the frontage gap between 6902 and 6838) and the north buildings are back on the north side (Y -1802..-9431). The sun was raised to pitch -62 so both frontages read instead of one being silhouetted.
