Correction List

[Barabajagal]

This is an incomplete list of problems I've found on BNetDocs. It'll probably be updated as time goes on.


Battle.net's file transfer protocol (Version 1)
http://bnetdocs.valhallalegends.com/content.php?Section=d&id=9

"After sending this message, Battle.net terminates the connection."
Battle.net does not terminate the connection, the client does. The server only terminates the connection if a malformed packet is sent.

User Statstrings
http://bnetdocs.valhallalegends.com/content.php?Section=d&id=16

Note added Feb 10, 2007: It would make more sense to number the fields starting at 0 rather than 1, since most people will probably split the statstrings up into arrays, and technically, Computer Science denotes that 0 is the first number.

DRTL/DSHR (Diablo) 9th field = Spawned (1 for DSHR, 0 for DRTL).

W2BN (Warcraft II) 7th field = Iron Man Rating.
         8th field = Iron Man Rank.

MCP_CHARLIST/MCP_CHARLIST2
http://bnetdocs.valhallalegends.com/content.php?Section=m&Code=102
http://bnetdocs.valhallalegends.com/content.php?Section=m&Code=408

There is no (Flags) field.


Added Feb 6, 2007:
Logon Sequences
http://bnetdocs.valhallalegends.com/sequence.php

A few of these are incorrect, such as SSHR's:

Code Select Expand


Send > SID_CLIENTID
Send > SID_LOCALEINFO
Send > SID_SYSTEMINFO
Send > SID_STARTVERSIONING
Recv < SID_CLIENTID
Recv < SID_LOGONCHALLENGE
Recv < SID_PING
Recv < SID_STARTVERSIONING
Send > SID_PING
Send > SID_REPORTVERSION
Recv < SID_REPORTVERSION
Send > SID_GETICONDATA
Recv < SID_GETICONDATA
Send > SID_UDPPINGRESPONSE
Send > SID_GETFILETIME
Send > SID_READUSERDATA
Recv < SID_GETFILETIME
Recv < SID_READUSERDATA
Send > SID_LOGONRESPONSE
Recv < SID_LOGONRESPONSE
Send > SID_ENTERCHAT

There's no flags field for the MCP_CHARLIST*?  Then how does the client know what type of character it is?  Last time I checked, there were flags and always has been.

[Barabajagal]

The character type is in the statstring. Look at an example statstring:

Code Select Expand

PX2DUSWest,RipplesBotty,,,€ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ
ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ
倀€ÿÿ
Now, when you use the "Flags" Word field in MCP_CHARLIST, you get two bytes missing off of the char statstring. Those two bytes are your "Flags" Word. See what the first two bytes of the same character's statstring are within a channel and what the Word is for your "Flags" (remember to reverse the values because it switches endian cause it's a Word).

Just noticed... Starcraft Shareware doesn't send Channel List or Friend List on connection...
