ReaperOfVeriod	16c04db559	Fix level extents read as bytes, and extract the level geometry ... A defect in the Phase 1 extractor, found by reading the data extent's contents: level extents are declared in sector counts, the generic G/ pair table uses byte counts, and level containers were being routed through the generic path. So LEVEL0.WAD's data extent -- 6,484 sectors -- was taken as 6,484 bytes. Every test still passed, because a truncated file is still a file. The extent's own header gave it away: it declares an uncompressed total of 13,277,920 bytes, and 13,277,920 / 6,484 is 2047.7. A ratio landing on 2048 is a unit error, not a compression ratio. Across 27 levels this had been discarding roughly 300 MB of level content. Level containers now go through the typed LevelHeader instead. Level 0 yields: data.bin 13,279,232 the data extent core_data.wad 9,738,678 the geometry, compressed core_data.bin 16,969,296 the geometry, decompressed core_index.bin 31,600 the geometry directory gameplay.bin 659,456 sound_bank.bin 1,503,232 core_data is a WAD LZ77 stream -- the format already implemented for the game -- and it decompresses cleanly. The first real level content this project has recovered. New: LevelDataHeader parses the data extent's own header, a table of byte ranges naming the level overlay executable, the geometry directory, the GS RAM image, the HUD banks and the geometry. Note this is a third meaning for a "size" field on the same disc, after sector counts in the level header and byte counts in the generic table; all three are documented together in level-data.md so the next parser does not rediscover this the hard way. The geometry directory's offsets were checked against the geometry rather than taken on trust: all twelve land inside the 16.9 MB of decompressed core_data, which is what confirms the header is being read correctly. The class tables themselves do not yet decode under the documented layout, and that is recorded as open work in plan/level-assets.md rather than papered over. 75 unit tests, 9 integration tests against the real disc. Hash table regenerated at 5,159 files and 5,671,915,799 bytes -- hashes only, no content. Extraction now writes to ~/Documents/gc-extracted rather than /tmp, which is 16 GB and did not have room for a 5.3 GB output.	2026-10-09 16:28:26 +02:00
ReaperOfVeriod	a9e43e39c1	Parse the level container header, naming each level's four extents ... The first typed structure read from real data. Every one of the 27 level containers begins with the same 0x60-byte header, which turns the generic pair table into named assets: data, sound_bank, gameplay and occlusion, plus three chunk descriptors. Two things about this header are worth stating because both are silent failures rather than errors. Sizes here are sector counts, not byte counts. The generic G/ pair table on the same disc uses byte counts, so both readings type-check and the wrong one is off by a factor of 2048. The tiling check settles it: read as sectors, the four extents tile every one of the 27 containers exactly; read as bytes they overlap each other. Level id is not container order. LEVEL21.WAD reports id 30, so a level was cut from the disc and its number left a gap. Anything keying off file order -- a save slot, the planet select screen -- would mislabel that planet. There is also a second trap in the same area: the ISO filesystem sorts names alphabetically, so LEVEL10 precedes LEVEL2, and any tool needing order has to sort numerically. The header's field at 0x04 is zero on all 27 levels. It is not the container size despite looking like one, so the code reads it as a runtime field and takes the container length from the ISO entry instead. Measured across all 27 levels, three invariants now hold in tests: extents tile in file order; extent coverage plus chunks reaches at least the end of the container (21 levels land exactly on its length, 6 leave 134 to 689 sectors of trailing data); and exactly one level's id differs from its container index. The coverage assertion is >= rather than == on purpose -- 21 levels end one sector past the file end because the header occupies sector 0, and asserting equality would truncate a level's tail. gameplay is left unparsed and that is recorded rather than hidden. It begins "WAD" plus a per-level byte and does not decode with the WAD LZ77 decoder: all 27 levels produce plausible output for the first packet and then fail on a rule the format's own encoder never breaks, which means the input is wrong rather than the decoder. docs/plan/level-assets.md records what is ruled out and what to try next. 66 unit tests, plus 7 integration tests against the real disc. The unpack hash table is unchanged, so this adds parsing without altering the pipeline.	2026-10-09 16:20:25 +02:00
