 The renderer validates camera and sprite bounds, uploads textures only when their revision changes, and exits if its parent process ends. The editor has process-exit/timeout checks and a retry button, converts DIB padding to opaque alpha, uploads BGRA to DX11 and displays with point sampling at 4:3. Map/inspector changes appear without saving. Timeline playback/scrubbing drives the viewport camera, subtitles and fade. Free-camera inspection affects no authored data. The viewport shows the scene and cinematic overlays; normal game HUD, door interactions and room switching are tested in F5.

+### K. Authored Lighting Format (EBLN v5)
+After the v4 cutscene strings, v5 appends `LightingSettings` (32 bytes), `lightCount * 40` bytes of `LightSource`, and 1024 DWORD baked RGB cells (`00RRGGBB`, 4096 bytes). Settings are eight DWORDs: mode (0..2), ambient (0..255), flashlight (0/1), flashlight radius (32..2048), intensity (0..255), half cone angle (1..96 angle units), baked-valid (1), reserved (0). Source layouts match `EditorLightSource` and MASM `LightSource`. Counts/settings/coordinates/radii/intensities/flags/colors and exact file size are validated before committing a room. v1..v4 load no authored lights and mode NONE; the old reserved header bytes are ignored.
+
+Sources and baked data are map-local and travel with save/load, undo/redo, F5 and standalone exports. Static lighting is baked in the editor with BakeLightingRGB and in ASM with BakeMapLighting; all 1024 RGB cells are regression-compared. Realtime point/pulse/flicker lights use only the live source array on top of the persisted static map. Shadow flags are respected. Slot 0 belongs to the player flashlight, 1..13 to authored sources, 14 to muzzle flare, 15 to explosions; combat never overwrites authored lights. Both wall stripes and sprites receive RGB coefficients. Flat ceiling/floor colors use a camera-cell light sample, not per-pixel floor projection.
+
+Editor light settings are in the property inspector and toolbar. A stale-bake indicator tracks static sources, geometry and ambient, excluding realtime movement. Saving or F5 automatically rebuilds a stale static bake; runtime and preview consume persisted RGB without baking each frame. The IPC v2 header includes flashlight parameters and a deterministic light tick; sources begin at offset 1,357,792 and baked RGB at 1,358,312. Update the C++, ASM and Python layouts together.
+
+Lighting verification (24.10.2026): 117 editor checks and 131 ASM checks passed; all 1024 RGB bake cells match, and both lit and classic viewport framebuffers match direct ASM rendering. Project assets were verified unchanged.

+- **Динамический**: выберите точечный или пульсирующий источник и режим «Запечённый + динамический». Перемещение, цвет, яркость и мерцание сразу влияют на игровой вид. Перезапекать постоянный свет при этом не нужно.
+- **Режимы**: «Без освещения», «Только запечённый», «Запечённый + динамический». Фоновый свет и параметры фонарика настраиваются в разделе «Освещение карты» инспектора. В игре F переключает фонарик, L — режим света.

+## 9. Запекание и динамический RGB-свет (24.10.2026)
+
+Запечённый свет отделён от динамических источников. `lighting_format.h` выполняет запекание в редакторе; `engine_lighting_core.inc` содержит эквивалентный ASM-вариант и расчёт света при рендеринге. Постоянные источники (STATIC=0) входят в 1024 RGB-ячейки `lightGridRGB`. Точечные (POINT=1), пульсирующие (PULSE=4), мерцание, фонарик и временные вспышки прибавляются только при динамическом режиме. Это исключает повторное прибавление света. Источник цвета 0 излучает чёрный свет; белый задаётся явно как 00FFFFFFh.
+
+Оба запекателя используют расстояние `max(abs(dx),abs(dy)) + 3*min(abs(dx),abs(dy))/8`, затухание `(radius-distance)*intensity/radius`, RGB-цвет и насыщение каналов. `CastLightRay` проверяет точные пересечения границ клеток; при пересечении угла проверяются обе соседние клетки. Порталы и открытые двери пропускают свет. Флаг SHADOWS отключает проверку препятствий для выбранного источника. Сглаживание выполняется в отдельном буфере с весом 2 для центра и 1 для доступных соседей, без усреднения сквозь стену.
+
+В v5 после строк кат-сцены добавлены 32 байта настроек, lightCount записей по 40 байт и 4096 байт RGB-карты. Поля lightCount/reserved занимают смещения 34/36 прежнего 38-байтового заголовка. Настройки: режим, фон, включение фонаря, его радиус, интенсивность, полуугол, baked-valid=1, reserved=0 (все DWORD). Загрузка транзакционная, включая освещение: повреждённая комната не заменяет действующую. Старые v1..v4 сбрасывают источники и сохраняют классическое освещение. После перехода загружается свет новой комнаты; старые источники и вспышки очищаются.
+
+Игровой вид использует протокол EBPV v2 размером 1 362 408 байт: прежние смещения пикселей и текстур сохранены, после кадра добавлены 13 источников и RGB-карта. Источники и фонарик синхронизируются при каждом запросе; время мерцания/пульсации задаётся 60-Гц счётчиком. Перезапекания на каждом кадре нет. В игре обновление использует время симуляции, а запечённая карта читается непосредственно из файла. У стен освещение берётся у видимой грани, у спрайтов — в их позиции; фонарик проверяет и конус, и заслонение. Плоские потолок/пол используют один образец в точке камеры, без проекции света по каждому пикселю пола.
+
+Слоты 1..13 принадлежат источникам карты; 0 зарезервирован фонарю, 14 вспышке выстрела, 15 взрыву. Вспышки не могут перезаписать авторские источники. Режимы света, источники, RGB-данные и состояние запекания входят в Undo/Redo. Изменение постоянного света/геометрии/фона помечает результат устаревшим; динамическое движение не требует запекания. Сохранение и F5 автоматически обновляют устаревший результат.
+
+Регрессии проверяют цвет, заслонение стенами/дверями/углами, флаги теней, отсутствие двойного освещения, пульсацию и затухание вспышек, сохранение v5, отказ от повреждённых данных, старые карты, Undo/Redo и реальное обновление игрового вида. Все 1024 RGB-ячейки сравниваются между C++ и ASM. Кадры сцены с авторским светом из встроенного вида сравниваются с прямым рендерингом той же карты в ASM.
