Does any1 have any information on the UDP Protocol Header?

http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gorry/course/inet-pages/udp.html

This is based on RFC 768:
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0768.txt?number=768

So, Iago, now tell me why most well known ports are odd. :)

Because programmers are odd, and they wanted to feel comfortable.

Ok thx for the sites but I was talking about Starcraft udp

Perhaps you should've said so then? You can't expect a good answer if you don't ask a clear and well-formulated question.

The Starcraft UDP headers are very much like the D1 UDP headers. They're numbered and have seq and ack fields. There's a mechanism to request retransmission of lost packets. There's a packet class field, with separate numbering for each packet class. There's a packet type field, for packets like game ticks, join game, ping game, etc. There's a checksum of the packet contents, perhaps so it would be harder to fake packets, or to safeguard against corrupted packets on modem/IPX or similar.

Very true, he said UDP and realizing this is not a Bot Dev forum. This is specfically a Visual Basic Programming forum, so what format of UDP he is referring to is a mystery without his directon.

Perhaps you can elaborate some more on the format, along with checksum? :P

What more is there to say? I think I've covered most there is in it.. The checksum is a simple 16-bit one, nothing special, and it's calculated over the whole packet with the checksum spot zeroed out.

It's CRC32. No it isn't.

Storm.dll address? :P

Edit: Changed location to address due to smart response :P

That depends on where you installed the game. For Starcraft, mine's in D:\Games\Starcraft\.
