Has anyone actually done it so when a war3 user joins the channel it displays his current icon instead of just the war3 icon?
if so could ya point me in the right direction.

I think u'd have to get every character icon things into a ImageList, and when the statstring is recieves saying which icon the user has, make it display the approprite icon.

I haven't ever parsed a Warcraft 3 statstring, but I would assume that the user-icon would be in the user's statstring.

Also, are the user-icons static, or are they stored in a downloadable file? I'd check myself, but I don't have a machine which can run WarCraft 3 with packet logs...

IIRC, War3 downloads a special version of icons.bni, which it doesn't use at all

Yea, it only ever seems to contain the byte 'Z'.
