Title: Connecting public channel bot to private channels?
Post by: James on February 28, 2003, 01:37 PM
Hello. I got my bot to connect to public chat channels but I'm not sure what I need to do to get it to connect it to private channels. If you could help me out here or point me to a tutorial, thanks.   ;)

Chat bots (which I assume you are using) can't go into private channels.  If you look in cuphead's forum he has written some tutorials that you can take a look at.

Well... I know you can make bots go into private channels if you make them binary, which is what I need to figure out how to do.

Oh and I'm not really looking for a mod to add to it like bg3, I think I might of given the impression that I downloaded the bot from somewhere. I made the bot in visual basic and I just need to figure out what to add//modify to it to make it binary where it can enter private channels.

I have a question.. so my bot goes into pub channels.. so if i just add the slatebot.ocx to it thats what makes it go into private channels? Or, (binary) as it's called.

you can try BG3 to let your bot enter private channels.

BG3 was ok but I don't prefer to work with it. Some people told me that it disconnected them alot. But I have no clue.

A better answer would be this:

A binary bot is a bot that emulates a game protocol.  It imitates Starcraft, war2, diablo, etc. to log onto battle.net.  To make your bot into a binary bot, you have to figure out the protocol, which is no easy task, and use it.

I would NOT suggest using BNLS or CleanSlatebot.ocx or anything like that if you want to do it yourself, because then you're just using other peoples' code.  You'll find it's much more satisfying to figure it out yourself :D

Well...I don't mean to jump right to this but all the info you need can be found @ http://www.valhallalegends.com/arta/bnetdocs. That site holds ALL the information you need for a bot. Also, I reccomend completing a chat bot on your own, with your own code and everything, before starting out binary.

Hope this helps.
