| Deception | I received this packet on my client. My account is WCG player account. What I want to know is, what is this packet for? I don't have the official client installed so I can't see what it's for. BNCS Packet ID: 0x4E [code] 0000: FF 4E 3E 00 01 03 57 6F 72 6C 64 20 43 79 62 65 ÿN>.World Cybe 0010: 72 20 47 61 6D 65 73 20 28 4D 65 72 63 75 72 79 r Games (Mercury 0020: 29 00 00 10 01 01 00 00 00 00 00 01 01 00 02 02 )........ 0030: 00 00 00 00 01 05 00 00 00 00 32 00 00 00 ........2..... [/code] Any ideas? | May 11, 2005, 6:21 AM |
| Ringo | Are you sure that came fom the BNCS protocol? What gives u the idea this is a 0x4E BNCS packet? | May 11, 2005, 6:48 AM |
| UserLoser. | This is on W3XP? If not, I don't recall any handling for that message in Starcraft's Battle.snp | May 11, 2005, 6:52 AM |
| Deception | I was unclear with the message. It was: [00:04:31] BNCS Received Unknown 0000: FF 4E 3E 00 01 03 57 6F 72 6C 64 20 43 79 62 65 ÿN>.World Cybe 0010: 72 20 47 61 6D 65 73 20 28 4D 65 72 63 75 72 79 r Games (Mercury 0020: 29 00 00 10 01 01 00 00 00 00 00 01 01 00 02 02 )........ 0030: 00 00 00 00 01 05 00 00 00 00 32 00 00 00 ........2..... This is definitively a BNCS packet, as I previously stated. It was on StarCraft Brood War. The account is receiving it because it is a WCG player. | May 11, 2005, 7:06 AM |
| HdxBmx27 | Just to take a stabb at it, That looks like an informative packet, telling you the details of the channel you are saposto join, The 1st string being the name, the then the rest I have no clue, Couldnt fine it in SC's Battle.snp ~-~(HDX)~-~ | May 11, 2005, 7:29 AM |
| Ringo | Just out of interest, how offten does BNCS send you this packet? (Also thx for adding the BNCS header, it helps) ;) Iv seen a packet very much like this one before.. but it was not a BNCS packet.. interesting.. | May 11, 2005, 7:48 AM |

[/code] Think the proceeding values have somthing in common? (The UDP Packets values very on game type) [edit] Hmm, seems as the packet has a channel name in it and is followed by pritty standerd game values, would suggest that is what it is, an infomation packet based on the type of games the client can play. Would that be Mercury games? The differnace is, that BNCS is telling you these values and not the game host. | May 11, 2005, 7:52 AM |

[/quote] After further research, I can conclude that the string from the packet, "World Cyber Games (Murcury)" is a new Game Type for Brood War users to pick when they create or join a game. It isn't a channel name. The channel that WCG players join automatically when they logon is WCG Mercury 1. As far as I know, WCG is only on the USWest gateway. | May 11, 2005, 10:38 AM |

[/quote] ... wth lead you to that conclusion? Shrooms? Changes to the game listings would be made in SID_GETADVLISTEX, the packet which is sent when you request the game listings. Rather than trying to find a packet, not even of the same protocol, which has minor similarities to the one in question, you could try logging the events that occur immediately before & after receiving this packet before coming to another "conclusion." | May 11, 2005, 11:02 AM |

It seemed he was saying i just found a random none BNCS protocol packet that looked like it, and said "they must be related" witch wasnt the case. If it was aimed souly to Deception, then my mistake, sry. | May 11, 2005, 1:51 PM |
