# Realistic animals, round 2: wolf v3 and bull v2 Written 17 October 2026, 22:43 CET. Hard stop: 22:50 CET. ## Result **Two new source releases. My verdict: OK at game distance, not GOOD close-up.** I inspected rear, belly, side, clay and moving-tail captures. I see no remaining sheet joining the wolf tail to a hind leg and no floating white belly shards on the new bull. This is my review, not operator approval or a live-game claim. On gex44, under `/opt/creature-lib-20261017/pipeline/releases/`: | New file | Bytes | Triangles | Clips | Verdict | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | --- | | `enemy-wolf-realistic-v3.glb` | 798,032 | 6,646 | 6 | OK | | `enemy-bull-realistic-v2.glb` | 1,142,064 | 13,965 | 6 | OK | Also there: `catalog_entries_round2.json`, `manifest_round2.json`, `release-wolf-*` and `release-bull-*` rear, belly, side, clay and motion captures, and independent geometry audits. Full checked runs: `wolf-v3-delivery/` and `bull-v2-delivery/`, alongside `releases/`. Earlier release files were not replaced. ## See the outputs ### Wolf v3 ![Wolf v3 rear](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/wolf-rear.png) ![Wolf v3 belly without texture](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/wolf-belly-clay.png) [Side](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/wolf-side.png) · [Textured belly](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/wolf-belly.png) · [Rear clay](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/wolf-rear-clay.png) · [Close rear motion](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/wolf-tail-close.png) · [Full side/rear motion](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/wolf-tail-clips.png) ### Bull v2 ![Bull v2 rear](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/bull-rear.png) ![Bull v2 belly without texture](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/bull-belly-clay.png) [Side](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/bull-side.png) · [Textured belly](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/bull-belly.png) · [Close rear motion](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/bull-tail-close.png) · [Full side/rear motion](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/bull-tail-clips.png) ## What changed at the source - The image request changes the pose: tail behind/up, background between tail and both hind legs, four separate lower legs. No pose-lock language. - A white-background silhouette check runs before 3D submission. It measures tail/leg and leg/leg gaps, rejects touching or cropped poses, and caps generated references at three. Masks, annotated measurements and failures remain. - Accepted 512-pixel measurements: wolf tail gap **50 px**, leg gaps **29 / 59.0 / 17.5 px**; bull tail gap **94.0 px**, leg gaps **21 / 113 / 43 px**. - Fragment cleanup removes small disconnected pieces, small thin disconnected shards and enclosed duplicate shells. Large detached non-head pieces fail. Eyes/horns/antlers are exempt only near Head and near the body surface. - The wolf contained an almost enclosed duplicate inner shell: **3,204 vertices, 6,404 faces removed** before fitting. Enclosure tolerance is 0.05% of height; one almost coincident point was 0.15 mm outside the outer surface. - Each lower-foot region now fits as a whole. Splitting at the centre plane had stretched paws and belly faces when the references staggered the legs. - Fused-tail cutting/capping is disabled. The bull's raised tail is fitted onto the downward donor rest curve using a narrow-shaft selection, bounded cross-sections and local smoothing, not a tail/leg web cut. UVs are retained. - Catalog entries say `CC0-1.0`, credit the Quaternius rig and animations, describe appearance/size/movement/attack/death in one sentence, list places in `good_for`, and use `tint: []`. Source catalog and source GLB hashes must match. - Release requires the model hash and seven unchanged render hashes. The copier adds new files to an existing directory without overwrites. ## What was checked - **19 policy tests plus 2 silhouette tests pass locally and on gex44.** Subcases cover corrupt inputs, no 3D spend after reference rejection, three-image retry limit, changed/missing renders, unknown rig rights and immutable releases. - **Five Blender fragment fixtures pass:** loose speck, thin shard, near-head eye, rejected detached limb, and removed enclosed shell. - Both actual files were loaded again directly from `releases/` in disposable Three.js previews: **12 clips**, **zero browser errors**, **zero tail/leg cross-weights**. Both independent geometry audits pass. - Worst sampled floor crossing: wolf **5.0 mm**, bull **9.1 mm**, below the existing 20 mm limit. Source skeletons and all clip names/durations are preserved. - All **29 original library GLBs** and **3 prior pipeline release GLBs** still match their recorded hashes. No earlier GLB was overwritten. - Committed detailed evidence: `W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-RESULTS.json` and `W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-TESTS.txt`. ## Failures and limits 1. The operator's round-1 wolf v2 and bull rejection stands. This report does not upgrade them. [Old wolf rear](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/wolf-v2-rejected.png), [old bull shards](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/bull-v1-rejected.png). 2. The old bull's white pieces were attached to the body. Island removal alone did not fix them. The release uses a **new reference and mesh**, not a claimed successful cleanup of that old mesh. 3. Early fits stretched the underside. An early bull tail selection grabbed rump faces and produced a sheet. That candidate is BAD and was not released. [Rejected tail fit](W-REALISTIC-ROUND2-EVIDENCE/bull-rejected-tail-fit.png). 4. The initial silhouette band was too high and counted touching upper thighs as merged feet. It was corrected to measure lower legs; existing images were rechecked. Exactly three images per animal were generated. Three paid 3D jobs ran: one wolf and two bull jobs. 5. Coarse game assets remain coarse: angular limb bends, soft faces, underbody creases and a thin bull tail tuft. Connected malformed surfaces can still pass numeric checks and require visual rejection. Clay images show these limits. 6. Horse was not attempted. No independent second-model critic, live-game, slope, combat, collision or performance tests. No Factory/Engine changes, catalog import, deployment, or change to the live fox. 7. One combined lease/write command was blocked by the coordination guard and did not run. The prescribed separate claim succeeded before writing resumed. ## Undo and operational state Use the untouched earlier assets to avoid either new file. The converter is a standalone command, not a service; code is under `tools/realistic/`. Disposable preview processes have exited. Paid-job inputs and useful rejected proof are retained; temporary local image copies are cleaned. Local free disk space is about 6 GB, below the operator's 15 GB warning level.
