I haven't "forgotten" this website.

I have been checking it every day.

Just google for starcraft cd key, any generated cd key will work, but I'm sure there are public keys on the internet that are banned on Battle.net.

BNX is a great bot. Kudos. I have issues connecting it with my binary gateway program for some reason, same with other console bots.. I have to add a somewhat lengthy delay to everything sent to BNX in order for it to work. Without the delay, it crashes as soon as it opens.

I have this same problem with chewbot 1.x ...  it took me hours of scouring on the internet just to find them, can you provide any insight as to why they want to crash without the lengthy delay in between all packets?

Could be due to the delay in communication between the gateway and the bot? Or the gateway is being overloaded and has a buffer overflow perhaps?

In honor of Black History Month (I am making a mental note to myself to add "ghetto-themed" parties to this list), UCSD students organized a party with the following invitation:

February marks a very important month in American society. No, i'm not referring to Valentines day or Presidents day. I'm talking about Black History month. As a time to celebrate and in hopes of showing respect, the Regents community cordially invites you to its very first Compton Cookout.

For guys: I expect all males to be rockin Jersey's, stuntin' up in ya White T (XXXL smallest size acceptable), anything FUBU, Ecko, Rockawear, High/low top Jordans or Dunks, Chains, Jorts, stunner shades, 59 50 hats, Tats, etc.

For girls: For those of you who are unfamiliar with ghetto chicks-Ghetto chicks usually have gold teeth, start fights and drama, and wear cheap clothes - they consider Baby Phat to be high class and expensive couture...Ghetto chicks have a very limited vocabulary, and attempt to make up for it, by forming new words, such as "constipulated", or simply cursing persistently, or using other types of vulgarities, and making noises, such as "hmmg!", or smacking their lips, and making other angry noises,grunts, and faces.

Read the entire article for more. I do find it wrong but there is definitely some humor in the for girls/guys thing, especially because I attend a college where that is legitimately how a lot of the black girls I see dress or act.

Definitely fun. I'm surprised you posted this link though, I seem to remember catching crap from you a few years ago for posting a file sharing URL

I played it for awhile but i lost interest and ended up wasting money

Same exact situation here. The game just isn't that great. I got tired of it in less than a week and a half

lol what nick did u have back then tazo? ur name doesn't ring a bell.. and I'm good now, ice is updating flux and i've got this lil war2 gate thing goin on myself. And I'm programming a new bot as well, STONERBOT!

Lol i dunno, laurion maybe? I've gone through a lot of nicks, who knows. Glad to hear your plans are going well  Stonerbot eh? Hash bash is coming up soon... (ann arbor, 4/20 every year, heard of it?)

WoW got old as usual.. epics got incredibly easy at 80. Therefore the value of geared accounts isn't much more than an 80 in greens. Ended up selling my 80 rogue to get a new fender acoustic/electric. Bye bye WoW, I'm sure I'll be back, as always. lol. 

First off... welcome back, wow. I remember working with you and atom a long time ago. Where have you been? lol.

You still have a copy of Chewbot?! That's nuts, post that up for download... As far as your bot goes, you're probably better off modifying it with the new packet structures and log on with D2. You don't need Warden for Diablo II/LoD. And if you have 0x50 implemented, I'm assuming you have 0x51 as well, so you just need new version files and the updated version byte.

Using blocking sockets in c#, I have a timer on 10ms delay that checks for new data like so:

static void timerTick()
       {
           if (stmBnet.DataAvailable)
           {

               int i = stmBnet.Read(RecvData, 0, size);

               if (i > 0)
               {
                   //data exists, separate it up and remove the null bytes

                   SplitPacket(RecvData);
                   if (DataQ.Count > 0)
                   {
                       //parse the separated packets
                       ParsePackets();
                   }
                   RecvData = new byte[size]; //reset the buffer
               }
           }
       }


I receive the data fine but the issue is that sometimes it clumps together and adds a plethora of trailing 0x00 (null) bytes. Therefore I wrote the packet splitting function, which splits up thepackets and places the data into a queue (DataQ):

static void SplitPacket(byte[] bData)
       {
           for (int i = 0; i < bData.Length; i++)
           {
               if (bData[i] == (byte)0xff)
               {
                   //found 0xFF, check if it's a header
                   if (bData.Length >= i + 2) //check that we can move up 2 more bytes to check for packet size
                   {
                       //i is still the location of 0xFF
                       byte packetid = bData[i + 1];
                       int packetsize = BitConverter.ToInt16(bData, i + 2);
                       if (bData.Length >= i + (packetsize - 1) && packetsize > 3 && packetsize < 512)
                       {
                           Console.WriteLine("Packet ID: 0x{0} :: Size: {1}", packetid.ToString("x2"), packetsize);
                           string splitPacket = Encoding.Unicode.GetString(bData, i, packetsize);
                           DataFormatter.WriteToConsole(Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(splitPacket));
                           DataQ.Add(splitPacket);
                       }
                   }
               }
           }
       }


I then go about parsing the items in the queue. However, for some reason, it will randomly occur that the end of my parsed packets have the bytes: 0xFD and 0xFF, and are 1 beyond the split size.. for example, if the real packet data is

FF 30 09 00 01 00 00 00 00

, the packet splitter function will somehow end up with

FF 30 09 00 01 00 00 00 FD FF

instead.

I think it has something to do with the data being extracted as a string:

string splitPacket = Encoding.Unicode.GetString(bData, i, packetsize);
But I'm not sure how to extract in the middle of a byte array (the equivalent of .substring for byte[]). I think the null terminator on the end of packets is getting lost when it's extracted.

I'm basically looking for the C# equivalent of the java method extractBytes.

Nevermind, ended up using Array.copy. Revised funct:

static void SplitPacket(byte[] bData)
        {
            for (int i = 0; i < bData.Length; i++)
            {
                if (bData[i] == (byte)0xff)
                {
                    //found FF, check if it's a header
                    if (bData.Length >= i + 2) //check that we can move up 2 more bytes to check for packet size
                    {
                        byte packetid = bData[i + 1];
                        int packetsize = BitConverter.ToInt16(bData, i + 2);
                        if (bData.Length >= i + (packetsize - 1) && packetsize > 3 && packetsize < 512)
                        {
                            //we have enough room to separate the packet, it is a valid BNCS packet\
                            Console.WriteLine("Packet ID: 0x{0} :: Size: {1}", packetid.ToString("x2"), packetsize);

                            byte[] tempData = new byte[packetsize];
                            Array.Copy(bData, i, tempData, 0, packetsize);
                            DataFormatter.WriteToConsole(tempData);

                            DataQ.Add(tempData);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }

I'll leave the thread here on the off chance that someone else has a similar issue.

Your name alone makes me nostalgic for old school battle.net   Your bot was the shit back in the day, at least I thought so.

Welcome back.

In order to dual-boot XP and Vista on my dell laptop that came with Vista, I had to change the SATA identification mode in the BIOS from AHCI to IDE. Otherwise, the XP setup would fail, because it wouldn't recognize a hard drive.

If I had installed XP properly to the new partition, I would have kept the HDD in AHCI and booted the drivers in from a floppy or thumb drive. However, because the XP setup would recognize the HDD and run properly if I configured the BIOS to set the SATA drive to IDE, I did that instead.

The problem is that Vista won't boot if the HDD is in IDE mode... if I want to boot into XP, I have to set the BIOS SATA mode to IDE, and if I want Vista, I have to set it to AHCI.

Is it possible to install the SATA drivers to XP without reinstalling the OS so that I can boot into both of my OS's without having to tinker with the BIOS beforehand?

Thanks.
