Patch Notes: DFO Grimoire

A new look: DFO Grimoire

Main menu > Overhauls > UI has a fourth look, DFO Grimoire: everything Enhanced Plus does (the hotbar, camps and tents, the rest, the maps, trading and every online panel) dressed in GrimoireUI's parchment, wood, red-and-gold presses, glass vials and lettering.
The vitals are GrimoireUI's three vials, upright in the corner in Daggerfall's order or lying in a row under the hotbar.
The card has its own choices, each applied at once: Pages (cream page or tan scroll), Backdrop (the desk or the map), Vitals (upright or in a row) and Spellbook (the DFO book or GrimoireUI's own).
The front door stands on a detailed desk, as large as the screen allows, and every wooden board uses a soft desk wood.
Rarity, set and sigil names are inked deeper on the page so they stay readable.

The compass can be turned over in the HUD editor (Alt+U): a new turn-over press sits beside the X.
Main menu clicks now play the in-game click sound once your game data is loaded.
Letters of credit say what they're worth in the player-trade info box and hover.
The Daggerfall Online logo is repaired: the torn rows through "DAGGERFALL" and "The Elder Scrolls" are mended, and the clipped tops of its letters are closed.

Towns and forests draw with far fewer graphics state switches. The shared buffers that hold trees, plants and lamps now grow to fit a large town, and each kind of flat stays together, so drawing a street jumps between buffers far less often. Measured in the real game at night, a town's frame takes about 14% less main-thread time than before this change, and about a quarter less than before the previous one. Nothing looks different.

The account service was being slowed down by the Notice Board's trader directory, which every player standing in a town reads. That read now looks only at the traders of its own region, so sign-ins, saves and everything else on the account service should stop failing under load.

PATRON-LOAD II: the trader directory read was most of D1's load - index it by region and piece by @Lattymoy in #767
PERF-ARENA2: the flats' arenas grown, and a record's batches together by @Lattymoy in #769
GRIM1-GRIM7: DFO Grimoire, the enhanced skin in GrimoireUI's dress (the drop-in, merged onto main) by @Lattymoy in #760
