CydandClaude Fable 5 ab7191dc38 BT410 Phase 5.3.9: ballistic fire path -- SRM launchers fire salvos + run dry
The SRM6 MissileLaunchers now run the authentic ballistic fire cycle against
their linked AmmoBins, wire-verified end to end.

- PROJWEAP ProjectileWeaponSimulation (PARTIAL, binary @004bbd04 -- fully
  recovered in the BT411 RE): one trigger-edge sample; the dry-bin gate pins
  NoAmmo(7) every frame; Loaded(2) -- the AMMO PULL LIVES IN THE CALLER (a
  denied shot does the 4->2 denial blip with NO ammo pulled -- early-returning
  gates from FireWeapon while the caller cycles the alarm is the 1995 "denied
  shot fakes a full firing cycle" defect class); granted -> Firing ->
  FireWeapon -> Loading (or NoAmmo on the emptying pull), recoil=rechargeRate;
  Loading bleeds recoil -> Loaded when a round is chambered, dial animates;
  Jammed(5) held; NoAmmo(7) = the roach-motel (re-asserts unconditionally).
  Deferred: electrical step, gate 1, eject, jam roll, HasActiveTarget.
- AMMOBIN: FeedAmmo() + GetAmmoState() (1 round-ready / 2 EMPTY).
- ammoBinLink wired from the resource's ammoBinIndex (the bin's roster slot).
- WIRE-VERIFIED RESOURCE ALIGNMENT: a raw-stream dump pinned the
  ProjectileWeapon field block +3 ints past our staged struct (the MechWeapon
  resource ancestry runs 3 ints short -- the pip-family fields). Fixed with
  resourceAlignPad[3]; phantom muzzleVelocity/missileCount tail dropped.
  Confirmed on-wire: ammoBinIndex=27/29 (the exact bin slots), tracerInterval=1,
  minTOF=0.5, minVolt%=0.3, minJam=0.05, missileCount=6 (an SRM6!).
- MECHWEAP: weapon-state enum extended to the full 1995 set (DryTrigger 1,
  Jammed 5, TriggerDuringJam 6, NoAmmo 7; count 8).
- MISLANCH FireWeapon PARTIAL (@004bcc60: heat + salvo spawn only -- spawn
  needs the entity/targeting waves).

VERIFIED headlessly (BT_FORCE_FIRE): bins resolve with the authored 24 rounds;
SRM6s fire 6-missile salvos at the authored 1s cadence, rounds 24->0; after
the 24th salvo the launcher goes DRY and stays silent across ~3,000 subsequent
fire events while the energy weapons keep cycling. Zero Fail.

Scene Restorations

Modern re-renderings of the Division dVS scenes recovered from the Glaze developer drive (see HISTORY.md) and this repo's CONTENT tree. The originals ran on Division Ltd.'s pixel-pipeline hardware in 19941997; these tools parse the original data files and re-render them in WebGL, in the browser.

Viewers (open in any browser, fully self-contained)

  • vwe-archive.html — the Scene Archive: 26 curated scenes across all projects — Star Trek (Enterprise-D, Klingon flyby), Hull Pressure (sea demos, fish schools, sunken temple), BattleTech (polar map with mech lineup, Ravine and desert maps, stadium), Red Planet (Blade arena, the Mars canal milestone demo), and the Canyon/Maya-temple Division demos. Fly camera: drag to look, WASD to fly, R resets.
  • trek-scn.html — the original standalone Star Trek restoration (TREK.SCN and KLNGVID.SCN).

Toolkit

  • divformats.py — parsers for every Division format found on the drive: text VGF/VMF (DIV-VIZ2 geometry/materials, both the 1995 VERSION 2:07 and 1996 02:05 dialects, with header SCALE support), binary BGF/BMF (DIV-BIZ2) — the binary block-stream layout was recovered from Division's own reader source (DPL3/BIZREAD.C, 1994), including all 14 vertex layouts, pmesh/tristrip/polygon connectivity, LOD blocks (newer writers nest patches inside LODs; the largest LOD is taken), and embedded materials/textures/ramps — plus TGA and raw SVT textures, SPL splines, and SCN scene scripts.
  • audit.py — scans every .SCN on the drive and reports what fraction of its geometry survives, and in which format.
  • extract_all.py — extracts every scene with ≥60 % of its geometry recoverable (108 of 241 on the drive; the rest reference lost models) into allscenes.json, resolving models/materials/textures across the drive and this repo's CONTENT dirs.
  • gallery_build.py — curates scenes from allscenes.json into the self-contained vwe-archive.html (via gallery_template.html).
  • convert.py / viewer_template.html — the original single-scene Star Trek pipeline.

Fidelity notes

Faithful: vertices, triangles, material colors and shading ramps, textures, fog and light parameters, spline motion, camera start positions. Approximated: Division's rasterizer behavior, point sizes, timing (originals ran at 30 Hz). Not simulated: event-driven SPECIALFX particles. A few dev scenes had camera start positions inside geometry; those get overridden or auto-framed cameras (see START_OVERRIDE in gallery_build.py). Scenes missing one or more models from the drive say so in their header.
