This is what comes back on a packet log, but i dont understand how to parse out the incomming data. Any tips or advice anyone can add to point me in the right direction?

Edit - Added [ pre ] tags so your paste looks prettier.

This may or may not help you, I hope it does.

bnet docs did not help much in this case.. I am having problems triing to parse it. The incomming data is a little mixed up. If it was for a single user it would not be hard. But for a list up to 25 I dont understand how to seperate each user

I believe it looks hectic to you because of the illegal username in there ;)

And some character's you paste doesn't show up when you paste it..
that may be another cause.

Add-On:
[code]
2E 2E 2E 40 5E 5E 40 2E 2E 2E
...@^^@...

Example Parse:

FF 65 B7 00 ÿe·.
packet / length data

0A .
I would use this to signify where to start the parsing

42 6C 65 5B 73 5D 73 Ble[s]s
this is the username

00 .
this is the uesername's null terminator

00 .
this is the status byte (he is offline)

00 .
this is the location byte (he is offline)

00 00 00 00 ....
this is the client/product he is using (he is offline)

00 .
this is another null terminator that follows the channel name.. if any
(he is offline)

43 65 72 62 65 72 75 73 Cerberus
username

00 .
username's null terminator

01 .
he is a "mutual" friend

02 .
he is in_chat

50 58 45 53 PXES
he is using Starcraft Broodwar

43 6C 61 6E 20 63 4C Clan cL
he is in Clan cL

00 .
this is the channel_name's null terminator
[/code]

0A looks like how many you should parse?

[/quote]What is 0x0A? How many people do you have on your friends list? Is it likely that they're the same?

If so, is it possible that it's a coincidence?

If so, how likely is it a coincidence?

Read the packet one variable at a time while referencing BnetDocs, instead of trying to figure it all out at once. It will make a whole lot more sense.

Take it one step at a time and it'll be a lot easier.

There are no sure things in the real world, they only exist in math.

Thanks for the help all... Imma see if i can get this shit parsed out

I don't have war3 or diablo client/bot..

So Gangz. You have 10 usernames in your f list?

You don't actually need to be logged on to Warcraft III to use 0x65 as well as various other packets meant only for Warcraft III use.

There is none. Starcraft doesn't (and probably will never) support this functionality natively in the UI, so there isn't fully-working support for the "programmatic" friends management that Warcraft III has.

As I said, you can use it on all clients.

Note, however, that you won't properly receive notifications of users changing state if you aren't using Warcraft III/The Frozen Throne.

K THANKS FOR THE HELP! :D

[quote author=Gangz link=board=17;threadid=5707;start=0#msg48884 date=1078979867]hrmm do you know the packet ment for starcraft?[/quote]Are you asking if there's a friends packet specifically for StarCraft? Look up SID_CHATCOMMAND and SID_CHATEVENT, event ID EID_INFO. You use CHATCOMMAND to send "/f l", and receive CHATEVENT (INFO event) to parse the friends list using StarCraft's "native" packets.
