MakeEntityRenderables no longer stops after the skeleton. It builds ours AND
chains DPLRenderer, which is what creates the RootRenderable and the
DPLEyeRenderable the camera follows. Verified over three runs:
[mer] 208 class=3001 view=1 res=1
[vid] type=1 file='mad.skl'
[skl] video\mad.skl -> 26 nodes, 19 objects
[chain] into DPLRenderer, skeleton=yes, stack at 0x12dde7
No fault, mission launches, sim runs. Worth noting separately: the engine's
eyepoint construction -- prime suspect for the page fault through most of a
session -- runs perfectly here, with the stack at 0x12dde7, right beside the
main loop's frame. Both are consistent with the corrected finding that the
fault is a live-RIO artifact at a fixed DPMI host address.
The camera still does not move: two frames six seconds apart differ by zero
pixels while [sim] shows the mech travelling from (487,20,288) to (493,20,301),
and the bridge reads cam (0.0, 10.0, 0.0) -- world origin plus eye height. So
the eye renderable was necessary but not sufficient.
Eliminated by reading our own code rather than guessing: the viewpoint entity
IS the mech (BTL4APP.CPP:354), the video renderer IS linked to it
(APP.CPP:1337), and SetupCull would Fail() loudly if the mech lacked
"siteeyepoint" or EyepointRotation -- neither Fail appears. That leaves the
path from SetupCull's worldToEyeMatrix to what the bridge reads off the wire,
which is bridge territory rather than reconstruction territory.

# The mech case sets handled=True once ReadSKLFile finds a skeleton and

# builds the RootRenderable and the DPLEyeRenderable the camera follows.
|
|
# So the board gets a skeleton with no root and no eye, and the view stays
|
|
# frozen at the origin while the mech walks away. BT_MECH_CHAIN clears
|
|

# by removing the port entirely. Everything else is identical to the rec
