Obviously you can get the regular icons by downloading icons.bni
But, I do not know where to get the clan icons, possibly there is a file name for it?? Or perhaps a special place on the server you need to go to download it. I am mostly looking for a way to get it using file server download.

Someone posted a link not too long ago to icons from Battle.net's website, which are probably the same icons in the War3 data files

Any idea the name or any more information about it??

Edit: Also, I heard there is something called icons-WAR3.bni which I can't seem to get on the file downloader, anyone have any idea where or how to get it??

You can not download that file using the old BNCS FTP protocol. The new one has basic authentication before initiating the file transfer. Additionally, it's an MPQ archive and can't be treated the same as a regular Battle.net icons file.

Well I find it easier to get the icons from the site even when you can open the .bni file....

War3 Icons:

I downloaded one of the files called icons_STAR.bni from with the file downloader, boy does it have weird icons in it. I recommend checking it out.

IIRC, the icons are for KBK......

Just a quick question:
I've never done anything with .bni files before..and I'm not quite sure what I should use to view them with. Will anybody tell me?

Edit: Nevermind, found it on Skwying's page.

I have yet to find an MPQ Viewer that will work efficiently for me, so if anyone can point me in the right direction of one...Perhaps a name would be nice...

I can tell you icons-WAR3.bni isn't what you're looking for

Going off the 2nd search result on Google, I used an MPQViewer and found that it only contains World Cyber Games, KBK, and the 5th and 6th tiers for humans and night elves

You can not download that file using the old BNCS FTP protocol. The new one has basic authentication before initiating the file transfer. Additionally, it's an MPQ archive and can't be treated the same as a regular Battle.net icons file.

Battle.Net Chat Server File Transfer Protocol protocol, eh? Sounds interesting.

Not many people have heard of the Battle.Net Chat Server File Transfer Protocol protocol.
[/quote]

You can download a sample program (and the source) on the BotDev website which utilizes the old protocol to download files off Battle.net. Yoni also wrote a documentation on it, which can be found here:
