The medallions were not just flat - they were buried. seat_on_front put
Hero_Medallion at offset 0.08 (front Y -0.42) while the 1.2 m-deep parapet stands
at Y -0.15, so both discs sat inside the parapet and never rendered. The motto
band and surround have the same burial (offset 0.06) and are a separate follow-up.
- Three stepped layers per medallion with per-layer prefixes so seat_on_front gives
each its own stand-off: Rim (0.55 m, dark, offset 0.36 -> Y -0.14), Field
(0.38 m, light, offset 0.43 -> Y -0.07), Boss (0.15 m, dark, offset 0.50 -> Y 0.00).
A single Hero_Medallion prefix would both flatten the relief and (via startswith)
swallow the specific prefixes, so it is removed.
- Moved from +/-6.2 (inside the inscription text, which spans +/-6.87) to +/-9.8.
- Fixed Tools/review/hero_iterate.sh, which still had the pre-tools-move
'cd dirname/..' and landed in Tools/ instead of the repo root.
Rendered and judged; the advisory two-model judge (no, 0.93) no longer flags the
medallions. Owner review pending.
- Drop the /Screenshots/* gitignore exclusion so review PNGs are committed
(LFS-tracked) alongside the review README.
- AGENTS.md Visual review: PNGs are now committed, not kept only on disk.
- 13 review/demo screenshots tracked (25 MB LFS).
- mpfb_character_export.py: new --pose idle folds the A/T-bind arms down to
a relaxed standing rest pose (baked via pose.armature_apply before export);
new make_diffuse synthesizes a warm skin-tone diffuse with a darker
shorts-suggestive band, replacing the Cycles v2-skin bake that came out
black and was slow at 1024^2.
- write_png now encodes from img.pixels via numpy (fast) because img.save()
writes black for an in-memory image.
- Re-exported idle character, re-imported to /Game/Test/Character (138 bones,
warm M_Character_Export/T_Character_Diffuse); removed stale T_Skin_Diffuse.
- Untracked the review PNGs again: the Screenshots/ gitignore rule had been
dropped and the parallel session had committed the PNGs, against the
AGENTS.md 'never commit the PNGs' rule. Restored the ignore rule; only
Screenshots/README.md stays tracked.
- README/roadmap/memory updated; review-01-character re-pended for approval.
The review floor was a 5 cm slab centred 50 cm down, so the character floated
1.8 m above it. The floor is now 90 m x 90 m x 10 cm with its top face at Z 0 and
the character measures Z 0..83 cm - feet on the plane.
Two cubes only: A on the ground as the contact/scale reference, B held at 2 m so
its cast shadow separates from the body for comparison. The scale-cubes camera
was still aimed at the old three-cube row and now looks at both from the south.
Screenshots are committed per the owner's instruction, and .gitignore no longer
excludes them.
AGENTS.md requires the PNGs to stay on disk with only Screenshots/README.md
tracked. Four shots had been committed; they are removed from the index and the
ignore rule restored, so the next review run cannot add binaries by accident.
- AGigLineShotActor (dev-only): walks a fixed camera list in -game mode,
captures via FScreenshotRequest, quits. Test content only.
- ue_build_review_map.py builds /Game/Test/ReviewMap from current content
(gray floor, key light, sky, MPFB character, 1 m scale cubes).
- render_screenshots.sh: build map -> run game -> collect PNGs into
gitignored Screenshots/.
- Screenshots/README.md (committed) describes each capture with approval
state; AGENTS.md gains the visual-review instructions.
AGENTS.md now states that planned work is checkbox items in ROADMAP.md marked
open, in progress, or done, and that discoveries, gotchas, notes, and bugs go to
MEMORY.md for coordination between collaborators. MEMORY.md is seeded with what
this build-up actually cost: the Unreal read-only-home crash, Blender/Blosm
headless workarounds and the spherical projection, the tiled-TIFF DEM trap, the
reference licensing and throttling rules, and the LFS silent-blob trap.
Also stages the concurrently created Unreal project files, and stops per-project
Build/ output (FileOpenOrder logs) from entering the repository.
Tools/blosm_blockout.py imports the committed extract in 3Dsimple mode and
reports per-building dimensions so a units failure is visible in the log. The
result (87 meshes) is committed as the blockout baseline: hero 25.68 x 54.88 x
14.50 m against 25.75 x 54.88 m of OSM geometry, so the import is 1:1 metres.
Two headless defects needed working around: the asset-directory check that
fires before mode is honoured, and an empty default-level table sending the
add-on down a broken relative import. Member fetching stays off so the import
does not depend on Overpass.
Reference images are development-only material: licensing is not a gate for
local private use, so they are simply never committed. Art/reference/ is now
gitignored; the licensed status of anything shipped is still recorded in
THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.
Adds Tools/commons_fetch.py, which fetches Wikimedia Commons imagery by search
or exact title and writes a provenance sidecar, plus Docs/reference-notes-hollywood.md
recording what each local set is evidence for.
Create Game/, Art/, Geo/, Tools/, Docs/ with LFS and ignore rules, record the
workstation audit, toolchain pins, setup checklist, release checks, and
licensing policy. ROADMAP 0.1.0 environment tasks marked to match verified state.
