- Replace the alley with the 27 m Comedy Store-inspired hall, signature canopy, circular blade sign, red curtain bays, west entrance, low-rise neighbours, dry hillside and opposite frontage.
- Add day/night/across-street concept frames and real-site mapping notes.
- Expose the Joke Shop day stage in the realism captures and refresh the gallery shots.
- Render multiline HUD/wand strings correctly and list carried items in the wand panel.
- Add the Joke Shop layout/budget tests and update docs, roadmap and changelog.
Ignore docs/screens/realism/ entirely and remove its reports/captures from the
index while leaving the generated folders on disk. Update the asset-tooling and
concept notes to treat realism runs as local QA artifacts. Link scan clean.
- add the v2 runtime picks: per-phase skyline panoramas, brick, sidewalk
pavers, dry/wet asphalt, awning canvas, and their normal maps
- add the realism tooling and evidence: tools/scene_concepts.py, capture_realism.gd,
concept frames, reports/sheets, and tests
- retune phase lighting/fog/exposure, add sun yaw, brighten the night glow,
add the flashlight beam mesh, and rebuild the planter/tree assets
- regenerate all eleven staged screenshots from the current build; compare is
11 good / 0 bad
- finish the visual-alignment closeout in DONE/TODO, update architecture,
blender-assets, PLAN, and ignore rules (editable Blender sources untracked)
- keep the judge retry and document the verified default judge model
Verification: headless 227/227; Python tooling 86/86; check_screenshots 11/11.
- ignore assets/models/blender_src/*.blend (keep the .gdignore marker tracked) and
remove the 46 editable .blend files from the index; they remain on disk and are
regenerated by tools/blender_assets.py
- move the completed storage/docs/code-path/art-loader/verification, mouse-fix,
and pop-up sections to DONE.md; TODO now holds only the open lighting item,
realism follow-ups, and optional ideas
- docs changes only; runtime code unchanged
Phase 4 of the v0.6.0 graphics plan:
- tools/bake_ao.py bakes 256² AO maps for every Blender character/gear/prop
(Cycles, existing UVs) next to each GLB; Materials.apply_ao() wires the red
channel into character slots, gear, and props. Compatibility has no SSAO.
- Regenerated brick/concrete/asphalt at 1024² with OpenRouter, derived tangent
normal maps via tools/make_normal_maps.py, and wired them through
SurfaceMaterials.textured() without changing UV scales.
- Evaluated Forward+: boots on desktop Vulkan, but the renderer is project-wide
and Web must stay GL Compatibility; v0.6.0 keeps Compatibility (decision in
MEMORY/plan). A desktop-only override is deferred.
- Recaptured screenshots; compare 11 good / 0 bad. Fixed marquee text alignment.
- Tests: baked AO maps exist for all 46 assets; prop/character AO material
checks; headless 222/222, Python 69/69, all smokes pass.
- Version 0.6.0; ADR-0013 accepted; README/architecture/blender-assets/plan and
TODO/DONE updated.
Wire the skinned model from ADR-0013 into NpcAvatar:
- _build_skinned_body() instantiates the imported npc_base.glb, binds the 14
armature bones, and keeps the procedural _build_body() as the offline
fallback (use_skinned_model can force it in tests)
- outfit_for()/layer_for() tint the five material slots through the new
SurfaceMaterials.npc_slot(); accessories and hand items attach under Rig/Head
- the existing limb pivots (Hip/Knee/Shoulder/Elbow/Hand + Head marker) keep the
old animation math; _sync_skeleton() copies their rotations to bones. Bone
pose rotation is absolute local orientation, so it is composed with the rest
basis (otherwise the whole body snaps into a broken pose)
- skinned rigs scale uniformly (non-uniform parent scale shears the skin) and
keep Rig/Head for the focus cone, nametag, and reaction tag
- commit the editable npc_base.blend plus a .gdignore: Godot's editor otherwise
tries to import the blend and hangs during --import
- npc_pipeline audit tests (contract, textures, clean GLB, committed source)
Verification: headless 212/212, Python tooling 60/60, NPC budget 16 avatars =
144 meshes at ~6.9 ms, movement/focus/props smokes pass, compare 11 good / 0 bad.
TODO Phases 0-3 checked; environment lift and release remain.
asset_pipeline generate gains --variants N (saved as <stem>-1..N.png). .gitignore now excludes assets/models/concepts, assets/models/npc, assets/textures/npc/ai, and raw assets/textures/ai outputs; only game_ready and the game-facing NPC maps/models stay tracked.
- Mark cache-timeout fix verified (run 1090: zero CacheService lines,
54/54 tests, job succeeded)
- Ignore .gitea/logs/ (runner writes logs into the checkout)
- Leave collaborator's radio-easter-egg changes in the working tree
(strings.en.json, game_manager.gd) uncommitted for review
- Fix LATE shift phase (start 700s) so the violent-threat event is reachable
- Add PROTESTER archetype (rules, profile, colors, events in public venues)
- Add CALL_SOMEONE reaction (FSM -> ARGUING, influencer/trespasser/protester weights)
- Door lock: DoorState core class, L binding, red/green visual indicator,
locked doors thwart FORCE_ENTRY
- Flashlight: G binding, SpotLight3D, perception radius bonus at evening/late
- Persistence: save shift results via Save autoload, history + best score on
review screen, round-trip test
- Navigation: flat NavigationRegion3D navmesh, NavigationAgent3D path following
with direct-movement fallback; steps made visual-only so NPCs reach entrance
- Localization: strings moved to content/strings.en.json (loader keeps
lookup/fmt signatures; coverage test over all keys)
- Distribution: export_presets.cfg (Linux/Windows/macOS), tools/build_releases.sh,
docs/RELEASING.md, prominent README Downloads section
- Remove stale signal_bus.gd (invalid static-signal experiment)
- Tests: 53 passing across 9 suites
