# PROCITY v6 — THE LIVING STREET (epoch charter — DRAFT for John)
|
||
|
||
*Fable (m3), 2026-07-17. John's idea, from a browser walk down the strip: the crowd is
|
||
believable but narrow — one walk, one idle, one sit, everyone jaywalks, nobody owns the street.
|
||
Status: DRAFT — v5.0 (THE LIVE CRATE) is still closing; this charters the v6 conversation the
|
||
retro was already going to open. Applies to PROCITY first and 90sDJsim by depot (the Lane-G
|
||
two-studio pattern, proven).*
|
||
|
||
## The vision
|
||
|
||
The street stops being 24 clones who walk anywhere and becomes a town of *people*: personas
|
||
with their own gaits, errands and manners; footpaths used like footpaths; the odd car easing
|
||
down the main street; a busker outside the record shop doing a move John actually performed in
|
||
his actual shop. **Every asset generated, rigged, animated and shipped on our own machines —
|
||
zero cloud, zero subscriptions, everything owned.**
|
||
|
||
## The stack (measured today, not aspirational)
|
||
|
||
| piece | state | what it gives us |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| **mixamo-fetch** (tailnet source box) | **34 clips cached, only 3 wired** (walk/idle/sit) | the free stash, already in hand — lean, look-around, phone, talk, carry… |
|
||
| **MOCAPGOD** (ultra) | Lanes 0/A/B **DONE**: phone video → HSMR/SKEL → BVH, MPS-verified, ~1.6× realtime, mixamorig name-map shipped | film John → skeleton motion. Lanes C (retarget) + D (clip factory) remain |
|
||
| **MIRPAMO** (both Macs) | repo live: **a local offline Mixamo** — autorig (landmark → mixamorig fit → bone-heat weights) + retarget → `character@clip.glb` | new rigged BODIES from any mesh + clip retargeting, no Adobe |
|
||
| **MODELBEAST** (m3ultra :8777) | flux_local (Apache, free) · **hunyuan3d_mlx local** · trellis_mac · sf3d · mflux_image_edit · seedvr2 | concept art → 3D meshes → texture/outfit variants, $0 |
|
||
| **3GOD depot** | live, no-Draco law, two-studio consumption proven (Lane G) | one publish, every game (PROCITY · 90sDJsim · festifun) consumes |
|
||
| **PROCITY runtime** | ped fleet (19 rigged, `_canon` mixamorig), sit.glb clip pattern proven (R16), persona hooks half-exist (loiter/dance/bench/patronage) | the body the assets walk into |
|
||
| **A's street exports** | `roadWidth/vergeBand/poleOffset` per edge — **shipped R15, barely consumed** | the footpath law is one D constraint away, not a new system |
|
||
|
||
**MOCAPGOD Lane C and MIRPAMO's retarget are the same machinery** — an integration decision
|
||
for Fable-ultra before either builds it twice.
|
||
|
||
## THE SPIKES (do these FIRST — cheap, each kills the biggest unknown in one thread)
|
||
|
||
The pipeline test John asked for, as three end-to-end spikes. No epoch work until these run.
|
||
|
||
1. **SPIKE 1 — the free stash (motion, zero generation).** ~~Wire 2 of the 34 cached clips
|
||
(`lean`, `look-around`)~~ **AMENDED R28: `lean` does not exist in the stash** — E measured
|
||
the 34 instead of trusting the wishlist (the brief's premise was half wrong). `look.glb` is
|
||
shipped + depot-verified (R28); D's wiring closes in R29 wave 0. The lean moves to Spike
|
||
2's shot list — John films a wall-lean. *Proves:* the clip bank expands cheaply, and
|
||
wishlists are not inventories. Risk: ~zero (confirmed).
|
||
2. **SPIKE 2 — the full mocap loop (the one that matters).** John films ONE move on a phone —
|
||
**the crate-riffle, at Monster Robot** (the exact clip D's notes flagged "bespoke, won't be
|
||
on Mixamo" two epochs ago) → MOCAPGOD ingest → BVH → retarget (MOCAPGOD-C or MIRPAMO —
|
||
the integration call) → clip GLB → depot → **a ped riffles a crate on Musgrave Road,
|
||
in-game**. *Proves:* film-yourself-to-NPC works end to end. Needs: MOCAPGOD Lane C/D
|
||
sessions on ultra + John's test vids in the queue (it's empty — that's the ask).
|
||
3. **SPIKE 3 — a generated body (the stretch).** flux_local concept ("older shopper with
|
||
trolley, 90s AU high street") → hunyuan3d_mlx mesh → **MIRPAMO autorig** → walk retarget →
|
||
in-game past the no-giants gate. *Proves (or honestly fails):* autorig quality on generated
|
||
meshes — the least-proven link, which is exactly why it's a spike and not a plan line.
|
||
|
||
## The epoch tracks (after v5.0 tags + the retro + the spikes report)
|
||
|
||
1. **CLIPS** — wire the 34; fetch more free categories; the MOCAPGOD bespoke set (riffle,
|
||
till-operation, busker strum, lean-on-wall, trolley-push, phone-check). Licence rail: the
|
||
HSMR/SKEL NC-risk (MOCAPGOD Decision 1) means mocap-derived clips stay **in-house** until
|
||
reviewed — same discipline as the item photos, same flag line.
|
||
2. **PERSONAS (D)** — a seeded archetype layer per citizen: {body variant, clip set, speed
|
||
band, loiter/dance/bench biases, errand routes (pick a shop, walk there, dwell, move on —
|
||
patronage formalized into visible purpose)}. The persona is DATA riding the existing sim;
|
||
determinism per citizen id; identity signatures unchanged.
|
||
3. **STREET DISCIPLINE (D + B + A)** — the footpath law: peds walk the `vergeBand`, cross at
|
||
nodes (zebra-preferred on real roads — B's crossings already render); **occasional cars**:
|
||
seeded parked cars (instanced, furniture pattern) + 1–3 movers on the mains (the tram
|
||
pattern: deterministic path-followers, ~2 draws each, stated budgets). v0 non-interacting:
|
||
cars don't yield, peds don't jaywalk — both true by construction because each stays in its
|
||
band.
|
||
4. **BODIES (E + MIRPAMO)** — outfit/texture variety on the existing fleet first (
|
||
mflux_image_edit reskins — free variety, zero rig risk), MIRPAMO-autorigged newcomers
|
||
second, per Spike 3's verdict.
|
||
|
||
## Laws (inherited + this epoch's)
|
||
|
||
Everything behind **`?streetlife=1`** (cars possibly split as `?traffic=1` — F's call at
|
||
wiring), default-OFF until soaked, `?classic=1` byte-identical as ever · budgets stated per
|
||
system (cars and new rigs are draw/tri line items) · determinism from citySeed + citizen id ·
|
||
asset law (every new clip/body rides the manifest + depot + `?noassets` fail-soft) · licence
|
||
law (LICENSES.md per clip source: Mixamo royalty-free / MOCAPGOD in-house-NC-flagged /
|
||
generated CC0-equiv) · vacuous-gate law (a persona gate proves a persona DID something, not
|
||
that one exists) · measurement over brief.
|
||
|
||
## Sequencing (the honest order)
|
||
|
||
1. **Now:** v5.0 closes per ROUND27 — nothing here touches it.
|
||
2. **In parallel, zero collision (different repos):** MOCAPGOD Lanes C/D run on ultra ·
|
||
John drops 2–3 test vids in the MOCAPGOD queue · a MIRPAMO autorig smoke on one
|
||
hunyuan3d_mlx mesh.
|
||
3. **After the v5 retro:** the spikes run as v6 wave 1; this charter ratifies (or amends)
|
||
on their results; the tracks become rounds.
|
||
|
||
## John — the asks that unblock the spikes
|
||
|
||
1. **Film the test vids** (Spike 2 blocks on an empty MOCAPGOD queue): the capture protocol
|
||
is `docs/CAPTURE.md` in MOCAPGOD — the crate-riffle plus any two more moves you fancy.
|
||
2. **The MOCAPGOD C-vs-MIRPAMO integration call** is Fable-ultra's to make — nudge that
|
||
session when you're next on the M1.
|
||
3. Nothing else — the free stash (Spike 1) needs no new material at all.
