Config.ini overrides

A Config.ini Override is a special setting that can be activated by manually editing your config.ini file.

.ini File Format

.ini files are formatted as follows:

[SectionName]
KeyName=value
Key2Name=value2

... and so on. StealthBot has 6 primary sections, each containing several keys.

Available Overrides

Main

The [Main] section of the StealthBot config defines the bot's basic settings such as username, password, etc.

There is one config override that can be placed in the [Main] section:

Key	Description
AutoFilterMS	sets the automatic filtering delay

Position

The [Position] section of the config stores the data that controls where the bot window goes when it is loaded. These settings are based off of the window's last known position. There are no config hacks that belong in this section.

Other

The [Other] section of the config controls various settings including logging and auto-moderation features.

Key	Description
AutoCompletePostfix	sets a post-fix to automatically be appended to the end of auto-completed usernames
CaseSensitiveFlags	forces flags to be case sensitive. (i.e. flag b is not the same as flag B)
ChatDelay	sets the default chat delay
DefaultSafelistGroup	sets safelisted users to the specified group
DefaultShitlistGroup	sets shitlisted users to the specified group
DefaultTagbansGroup	sets tagbanned users to the specified group
HideClanDisplay	hides clan tags from the channel list display
HidePingDisplay	hides ping icons from the channel list display
MathAllowUI	allows UI related commands to be used in the math/eval command.
MediaPlayer	sets the default media player
RetainOldBans	keeps bans on the banlist even after the operator that made that ban leaves the channel
ShowStatsIcons	if set to N no stats icons (e.g. peons) will be shown in the channel list
StoreAllBans	stores bans from all operators in the channel
WinampPath	overrides the location to look for WinAmp.
FlashOnCatchPhrases	flashes the window when a catch phrase is seen

Override

The [Override] section of the config allows users to customize certain values that are used in the bot. These values include the location to find alternative BNLS servers, the version bytes to use, and the name used as the owner for the bot's CD key.

Key	Description
W3VerByte	Overrides the WAR3/W3XP version byte with the given value.
D2VerByte	Overrides the D2DV/D2XP version byte with the given value.
SCVerByte	Overrides the STAR/SEXP version byte with the given value.
W2VerByte	Overrides the W2BN version byte with the given value.
OwnerName	Changes the name given to Battle.net as the owner of the CD key.
DisableSBNews	Disables the loading of news when the bot starts up.
AutoModerationSafelistValue	Sets the amount of access required to be automatically safelisted (default: 20).
NoRTBAutomaticCopy	disables automatic copying of highlighted text from the RTB
WardenDebug	Enables debugging for Warden.dll.
ScriptViewer	Overrides the default program used to view script files.
SetKeyIgnoreLength	Ignores the length checks on CD keys.
LowerCasePassword	Converts the bot's password to lower case before hashing it (default: enabled).
AddQLinePostfix	Changes the default string added to split up long messages ("[more]").
DisableScripts	Disables the scripting system, scripts menu, and does not load any script components. This also disables access to the SSC and BotVars from /exec.
AddQMaxLength	Overrides the maximum length allowed for chat messages sent to Battle.net. Must be greater than 0, but less than 223.
BNLSSource	Use a different list of BNLS servers than the default one, for the Automatic BNLS Server Finder (http://stealthbot.net/sb/bnls.php).
SecondsToIdle	Override the default value of BotVars.SecondsToIdle. After this many seconds, a user is marked as "idle" in the channel list (default: 600 seconds, which equals 10 minutes).
D2NamingFormat	Override the default Diablo II naming convention format (default value: char (*name)). It accepts the values char = character name, name = Battle.net name, and title = character title. To avoid strange bot behavior, always include name in the value.
SetBotStatstring	Override the statstring sent in SID_ENTERCHAT. This is for Diablo 1 connections to provide custom, or valid stats. All other products ignore this value and use their own.
PredefinedGateway	Tells StealthBot what its namespace is ("Azeroth", "USEast", etc). If set, the bot will not join an invalid channel and attempt to /whois itself during log in. For all servers this override will increase log in speed. For private servers, this override will cause StealthBot to not join the "home:number" channel. On official servers it is recommended to use the namespace that the bot is actually on, or risk running into strange behavior.
RegisterEmailDefault	StealthBot will register this E-mail to new accounts it creates. If not provided, it will prompt you with a popup instead (default behavior) (build 288+).
RegisterEmailAction	Changes the behavior of E-mail registration (build 288+). The value Prompt (default) specifies the default behavior where it'll either automatically register the value in RegisterEmailDefault, or prompt the user if nothing is there. The value NeverAsk will cause the bot to register an empty value if Battle.net asks, thus causing Battle.net to not ask again. The value AskLater will cause the bot to ignore Battle.net's registration request completely. Battle.net will ask the bot (or another client) again on next logon.

StoredKeys

The [StoredKeys] section of the config keeps record of any CD keys you put into the CD key manager so that they can be easily accessed. There are no overrides that can go in this section.

FilePaths

The location of most of the bot's major files and folders can be specified through a config hack in the [FilePaths] section. All overrides in this section have the following format:

[FilePaths]
folder=path
filename.ext=path

where "filename.ext" is the name of the file being relocated (users.txt, commands.xml, etc...) and "path" is the full path to the location of the file.

A common use for this setting is to allow multiple bots to share the same user database, in which each bot would need an override in its config file specifying the shared database file.
Example:

[FilePaths]
users.txt=C:\StealthBot\globalusers.txt

Setting an Override

All toggle overrides (true/false) can be set by using Y and N. For all other overrides that require their own values, simply put the value after the '=' sign.

Advanced Overrides

There are a few overrides that can be added to the config to control how StealthBot handles its connection to the server. Using these overrides incorrectly can result in an IP ban from the server, so only use them if you know what you are doing or have been instructed to by a StealthBot Technician.

Section	Key	Description
Override	ForceDefaultLocaleID	changes the value of the computer's locale ID sent to Battle.net in SID_LOCALEINFO (0x12) and SID_AUTH_INFO (0x50).
Override	UDPString	changes the value of the UDP code sent in SID_UDPPINGRESPONSE (0x14).
Override	SpawnKey	tells Battle.net that the CD key being used is for SPAWN.
Override	XXProtID	changes the value of the Protocol ID sent in SID_AUTH_INFO (0x50)). (default: 0)1
Override	XXPlatID	changes the value of the Platform ID sent in SID_AUTH_INFO (0x50), SID_STARTVERSIONING (0x06), and SID_REPORTVERSION (0x07). (default: 'IX86')1
Override	XXProdLang	changes the value of the Product Language sent in SID_AUTH_INFO (0x50). (default: 0)1
Override	Ignore0x51Reply	ignores the reply to SID_AUTH_CHECK (0x51) aka the "version check."
Override	XXLogonSystem	changes the logon system used for the specified product.1

There are also several overrides for tuning the message queue.

Notes

¹: In these overrides, XX is replaced with the 2 digit product key of a product. (W3, W2, SC, D2)
