I've implemented a few things on Alternate Advancement.
Unfortunately, the PlayerProfile_Struct does NOT contain information about alternate advancement and the server holds a separate table of 128 (?) bytes in size. (table defined below)
I've been fiddling around with the way the server communicates this data to the client... but all I can figure out is that the server sends an opcode of 0x1522 with the table as the payload once the client is connected and established in the zone.
AA experience value is an int32 at location 4529 (4530?) in the PlayerProfile_Struct. I can't figure out where the percentage and number of unspent AA points are stored.
I'm too lazy to fill out the archetype_skills field with correct names. If you're feeling spiffy and want to fill in the names, just go #gm, hit V, and click on the names of the skills in the arch. skill list, the descriptions will show the ID number (which coincides with the position in the buffer). Just be happy I went through ALL the Class skills of each class (yes, they're all listed. no, I didn't forget beastlords -- they just use the same skills as shamen / monks.)
There is, however, a message from the client with an opcode of 0x1422 when the user clicks the arrow buttons in the Alternate Advancement menu, but all I can glean from the 256-byte field is a string containing a word "on" or "off" and a text-encoded number which seems to equal the percentage requested. I can't figure out how to respond with the right value to enable the AAXP percentage, so it stays 0% at all times. Oh well.
I implemented a copy of the Database::GetPlayerProfile() function that returns the "alt_adv" column from the "character_" table. It works pretty well, but it requires that everyone "ALTER TABLE character_ ADD COLUMN alt_adv blob;" their databases, which is icky... and requires that the code that looks up the table will handle a NULL value when the emu tries to look up the alt_adv table when nothing has been saved there before.

Edit: had a 15 where a 14 should have been. now it's all correct data above.
