Forest tower native style study — November 4, 2026
The catalogued WOG-A-008756 version remains byte exact and retains its existing source contract. Its native and four normal context views showed heavy outlines, saturated yellow-green ground and a distinct ground disk relative to the approved Gabled Court material benchmark. These are specific style/palette/contact findings; production or source-admission labels do not settle them.
One non-destructive alternative was made with the built-in image generation tool. The tower, broken crown, doorway, stairs, peripheral walls, rubble, teal banner and existing vegetation remain recognizable. Stone treatment is finer, outlines are reduced and moss is more restrained. The ground perimeter is more irregular, but its contact and blending are not yet accepted.
The selected study is fallen-tower-v6-native.png, SHA-256 1fec7c04bc0bb83b00c4031454c2dd67194dd5bf9130e75bd085173fed341810. It retains the generated 1254 × 1254 RGBA PNG bytes without resizing or lossy encoding. Two independent decoders agree. It has 758,407 fully transparent pixels and no alpha-128 subject pixels on the native border. Exact low-alpha red/yellow residues remain measured and unedited; alpha presence alone is not full transparency acceptance.
This is a generated style alternative, not a pixel-exact masked repair. It now has four private candidate context frames and four normal original control frames, no source admission and no game-ready approval. All four actual draw transforms match;the two native-dimension candidate Hex source replays are pixel exact. Context, role, physical scale, terrain contact, transparency edges, performance and lifecycle gates remain open. It is explicitly linked to the existing WOG-A-008756 family as one additional unregistered preferred study; it is not silently counted as part of the 9,206 published catalog files.
The original, prior finals, references, both Citadel hamlets and saves are preserved. The project holds the selected native output through an immutable hard link to the generated bytes; no duplicate physical native image copy was made. No raw pixel dump, rejected variant or copied input image is retained.

Matched world-context follow-up
The V6 native image and all eight control/candidate panes were directly reviewed. Finer masonry,more restrained ground colour and less disk-like contact are preferred in this sample. The original and every previous final remain exact. One browser-private source/permission replacement was used for the study;public files and permissions were unchanged. The old footprint was inherited for preview only and is not approved for V6. Full physical scale,alpha edges,crowded/all-profile contexts,lifecycle and performance remain open. See context-validation.json.
