laurion | Everytime someone tries to join one of my games created by my Bot, [ON BW] it says "Unable to join selected game." Any ideas why this might happen? | May 13, 2003, 8:35 PM |
Camel | because you're not hosting the game with your bot battle.net only manages the existance of the games, it doesnt actually host them; game clients host them. | May 13, 2003, 8:53 PM |
laurion | Okay..!? Is there a special way to 'host' these games? ^^; | May 13, 2003, 9:04 PM |
drivehappy | Make a bot that creates a game and joins it. EDIT: Excuse me, I was thinking Diablo II. | May 13, 2003, 9:20 PM |
laurion | I did that! | May 13, 2003, 9:22 PM |
tA-Kane | 1) Your bot needs to have UDP support 2) Your bot must respond to StarCraft's UDP pings 3) Your bot must support the basic UDP packets required for others to join your game. | May 13, 2003, 9:46 PM |
MesiaH | try to create your game with a map that comes with starcraft/brood war, this will ensure the user will not have to download it from you, causing huge amounts of udp packets ull spend days trying to figure out. other than that, just make sure everything is sent correctly, make sure you parse udp packets and send them back all the way up till the game stats packet, then go ahead and keep sending ur udp ping packets, then you should be able to kick in with ur 0x3C, and u should be good to go. | May 14, 2003, 2:32 AM |
Smurfling | Create a game within BW, log all the packets sent to/from you (UDP). BW Clients will send you a UDP packet requesting to join your game. If you don't respond properly to that they'll never be able to join. Sorry i can't really help you much but i'm currently working on this too ;) | May 14, 2003, 9:09 AM |
UserLoser | What about Warcraft II game support? How similar is it to Starcraft? I would really like to see a Warcraft II winbot, if possible. I never played Warcraft II Battle.net Edition so I have no clue about it, I've only played Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness. | May 14, 2003, 3:47 PM |

Playing the game won't necessarily win, nor will winning require playing the game. | May 14, 2003, 4:29 PM |
UserLoser | I am seeking a War2 winbot. Documents on the game support would help. Also later tonight maybe I'll get War2 and start trying it out for myself. | May 14, 2003, 10:44 PM |

[/quote] as kp so articulately said, no game actually needs to exist in order to make a winbot. all one needs to do is send the packets to bnet that would be sent in a real game, which basicly just tell it who's in the game and who won. i can only assume that war2 is exactly the same as sc/bw | May 15, 2003, 3:36 AM |

MesiaH | The bot worked fine, the packets didnt get me ip banned, everything was correct, but the private servers lacked certain things, yes, but as far as getting wins without udp on battle.net, no way, i even tried it last night! | May 17, 2003, 4:00 AM |
