Hide the tourist photo-pose bag outside camera poses, flatten the backpack straps onto the chest, rebuild the gear GLB/AO and publish the before/after NPC sheet.
Add a neutral 48-frame character contact sheet, acceptance criteria and ranked baseline gaps, plus repeatable sheet/comparison tooling. No character GLB or runtime mesh changes.
- Add a review harness that stages all eight library characters at portrait, conversation and crowd distance on both maps in day and night.
- Fix the final-context lanyard badge and firefighter helmet fit with runtime attach offsets; the asset-space gear contract is unchanged.
- Record the gate sign-off, refresh the gallery, and move the completed review to DONE.
Delete docs/plan-graphics-v0.6.md and update README, architecture, asset
tooling, Blender docs and MEMORY references. Completed work stays summarized
in ADR-0013, the asset-pipeline architecture and the changelog; the v1.0.0
roadmap owns future graphics work.
Make architecture the canonical system/data-flow source, add explicit
documentation ownership and consolidation rules, and mark the old graphics plan
historical. Fix stale README/status/Blender/release claims. Add a full gap
register and milestone roadmap from v0.8 through v1.0.0, including onboarding,
content depth, accessibility/localization, performance, release/legal blockers
and non-blocking future ideas.
The Python fit test now caps the glasses at 0.70x head width and requires a
positive bag clearance on both the coat and dress. The Godot character suite
loads head/back gear on six roles and checks attach parents, head width and
brow bounds, and that back gear reaches beyond the 0.26 m body silhouette.
Rebuilt and re-baked all 18 gear assets; no-op GLB export churn was reverted.
Headless 229/229, Python 87/87.
`blender_assets.py fit` measures each character head width (skin vertices
weighted to Head in y 1.55-1.81) and clothing radius (cloth skirt in y 0.30-0.52,
pants hip fallback), then prints every attached head/back/chest gear bounding box
with head-band status and x/radial skirt clearance. The report confirms the
glasses width and shoulder-bag coat clip, giving the next fit fixes numbers.
Python tooling 87/87; asset audit clean.
Blender library
- Rebuild the face: sclera, iris and upper lid per eye, brow ridge, cheekbones,
nose bridge and tip, ears with lobes, split upper/lower lips.
- Give each hand four fingers plus a thumb and end every sleeve in a cuff ring.
- Raise CHAR_MAX_VERTS 4000 -> 5000 (16 avatars still cost ~6.9 ms of a 50 ms
frame), decimate the body to 26 %; characters are now 3,974-5,026 tris and
3,744-4,807 verts. Rebuild all 8 variants and re-bake their AO maps.
Capture tooling
- Add a `portrait` stage to capture_realism.gd: freeze one NPC, park the crowd
out of frame, stand the subject on open sidewalk, turn it into the camera and
put the guard on the sunlit side. New --portrait-type=N picks the role.
- Add the npc_portrait_day concept and map the shot to it, so avatar detail is
scored against a portrait instead of a wide street frame.
Flashlight
- Drop the fake additive beam (Materials.light_beam + the cone mesh): on GL
Compatibility a first-person camera inside the cone renders it as a filled
disc with a bright far ring. Keep the tight spot (14 deg, 20 m, energy 4.2)
and its headless test; the visible shaft is now planned behind a Forward+
preset.
Docs and task tracking
- Move the finished realism follow-ups (ground exposure, flashlight, NPC detail,
judge re-check) to DONE.md and expand TODO.md with step-by-step plans for NPC
gear fit, venue geometry plus the committed gallery, and the Forward+ preset.
- Record the decisions, gotchas and portrait recipe in MEMORY.md; update the
Blender contract, the concept README and the capture section of README.md.
- Refresh the gallery captures affected by the avatar rebuild.
Checks: headless 228/228, Python 86/86, blender_assets audit exit 0,
scene_concepts audit all GOOD, screen_designs compare 11 good / 0 bad,
smoke_npc_budget OK, boot clean (only the known headless mesh warning).
- 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.
NpcAvatar
- select one of 8 library character variants by role/seed (with npc_base and the
procedural rig as fallbacks), keep Rig/Head and the existing bone animation
- tint only skin/cloth/pants/accessory/hair; fixed detail materials keep their
colour, npc_vest keeps its hi-vis vest, firefighter/guard use dark uniform tints
- attach caps, hoods, helmets, backpacks, SCBA tanks, lanyards and hand items at
the documented head/back/chest/hand points (primitive fallbacks retained)
WorldBuilder
- prefer assets/models/blender/props/ for the six replacements and the new
street dressing (street lamp/tree, palms, planters, A-frame, cone, barrier,
stanchion, podium, handrail, wall lantern, double door, marquee, sedan)
- fit the same colliders/navigation obstacles and keep the placement validator;
collect library emissives (bulbs, marquee face, wall lanterns, door LED, sedan
lights) for set_night_mode()
- add a library triangle counter + 60k budget check (current ~27,986); toggle
prop gallery to the library models; fix the marquee label placement
Tests/smoke
- character selection/gear attach/fixed-material tint tests; library prop load,
emissive and triangle-budget tests; smoke_props routes a guest around a
stanchion in open sidewalk (the old bench route is now crowded by trees)
- headless 222/222, Python 68/68, all smokes pass, compare 11 good / 0 bad
Docs: TODO Phase 3.5 moved to DONE, README/architecture/blender-assets/plan
describe the integrated runtime, MEMORY records the integration rules.
