ok what would a packet look like that sent the text "hello" into a channel. like the actual data sent.

[code]FF 0E 0A 00 48 65 6C 6F 00 ....Hello.[/code]

Edit: Forgot an 'L' when posting, fixed down below.

EXACTLY what i was looking for. thanks mate.

Looks like a counting mistake :)

Correct would be:
[code]FF 0E 09 00 48 65 6C 6F 00 ....Hello.[/code]

<edit> actually, the size isn't wrong, you missed an L in the hex :P

[code]FF 0E 0A 00 48 65 6C 6C 6F 00 ....Hello.[/code]

is there an easy way to convert text to hex. also to convert the size of the text into a hex value? i just put together some sloppy ass code that just does text. using c++ of course.

Just convert the strlen of the string (or character array) into hex, not too hard.

I forget the conversion call though.. -.-

nvm i got it. thanks people. cool forums. ill let everyone have my source to my bot when im done with it to learn.
