Offline DAoC fork v0.275.0

Install or update

1. Need the base game first? Download and extract the original Offline DAoC v0.3 release.
2. Close the game, server and launcher. Download UPDATE-OFFLINE-DAOC.cmd and Update-OfflineDAoC.ps1 into your game folder (next to START OFFLINE DAOC.cmd) and run the .cmd.
3. It downloads the update pack, checks its SHA-256, backs up every file it replaces under update-backups, and installs it. Saves, account.txt and configs are never touched. After the first update, run UPDATE OFFLINE DAOC.cmd from the game folder to get later releases.

Coming from a v0.3 game with characters? The first launch asks for a one-time Camlann world reset (full backup first, local account kept). Old characters do not carry over.

Changes in 0.275.0

Added

• Companion gear window with drag and drop (TASKS 129): the companion's
  19 worn slots, labelled in three columns, and its 40-slot backpack as a
  grid, with the items' real icons. Click one of your items, then a slot to
  give or equip it; click a filled slot to pick its item up, then click
  where it goes (another slot or your own bag). Open it with
  /companions gearprobe [name] [plain] (plain: without the House Vault
  list). Works in the real client. The window's client files are a
  separate install (tools/dev/Install-CompanionPaperdollProbe.ps1, stage
  built by source/server/tools/probe_companion_paperdoll.py) and are not
  in the release pack yet. What is still open is listed in section 8 of
  docs/COMPANION_PAPERDOLL_RE.md.

Changed

• The companion inventory view (the paperdoll window, the House Vault list
  of [Open inventory]) shows every backpack item, starter gear included.
  Starter gear still stays with the companion: taking it out is refused
  with a message.
• An item given to a companion, unequipped into its backpack or returned to
  you lands in the slot it was dropped on when that slot is empty, instead
  of the first free one.
• Bug 161 (0.274.0) is verified in the real client and moved to Finished.
