I Know VB in general, like i make "Non" Internet based VB Applications.  But i haven't used winsock's.

Bnls sounds pretty cool in my mind, and instead of looking for a bot source code as kp put it:

You look at the source code to bot Z.  This bot was written by someone who looked at the source code for bot Y and ripped out certain parts of code from bot Y without fully comprehending them.  Incidentally, author of bot Y probably did the same from bot X.  Result: you have half-assed poorly written code which was copied and pasted several times to "learn from."  You don't understand it, but it seems to work so you copy it into your bot.  

The step that usually follows this one is to post questions like "This code doesnt work whats wrong" on this forum.  

So i was hoping to get a Connection to a battle.net server, ( Preferably bnls - cause i like it so much, and it's so flexibile. ), that someone on these forum's has made, and not a "half-assed poorly written code which was copied and pasted several times to 'learn from' bot" because most people on these forum's aren't complete moron's.

Thanks for your help Valhalla Legends Staff Members, and people who browse this forum.

**EDIT: Preferably with a few comments, also i use Visual Basic 6.0

*** EDIT #2:  You can Email me it if you want  it private.  Or you can send me it on aim @ Help me if i need it. ( Recomended )

So what your saying is you would like a well written source to copy and paste from , well i guess that makes sense

i have no intention on using any code i aquire in this forum for a bot, unless the person who supplied it says i can.  All i wanted was a source that i could Learn off of, that wasn't hacked together off of 20 different bots.

A login sequence is JUST a login sequence.
How you get the connection made doesn't determine if you are a code thief.
A connection is just another simulation of a game client login.
Every bot has to simulate this to login..
Unless you are TAHC.

i'm sure you understand what i'm getting at..

I'm not the one who said that.

woops, my mistake KP,  IT was the account "K".

That should be all you need, if not, CleanSlateBot is always there for you.

Excuse me lord, thank you for the help.  a friend of mine said i need a "Packet Buffer" Class module, and where can i get Documentation on all the BNET Packets?

Would more appreciate   a "Login Sequence, that is 'comented'"

A ready to use packet buffer class isn't required..
but it does make it a whole lot easier for many.

woah, am getting confused here...

That bnetdoc's website is a little overmy head!

token's and stuff .. woah!

This is why i was looking for a "login Sequence" That had comments!

Could someone explain to me some Basic Parts like what a token is, and any other things that "most" people ask questions about!

QuoteCould someone explain to me some Basic Parts like what a token is, and any other things that "most" people ask questions about!

BnetDocs explains pretty much what everything is.

If you're not willing to do the harder work, don't do any work at all.
Most people here are willing to put forth the effort to help others learn, but not to help others copy.

Btw, o.OV:

Unless you are TAHC.

There is no client called "TAHC". "TAHC" is actually just the DWORD form of "CHAT".

How you get the connection made doesn't determine if you are a code thief.

What if you copy the code without the original coders consent and/or without crediting the original coder?
What if somehow you illegally obtained the code?
In my opinion, that would be code theft.

So if I made a connection to http://www.battle.net, my bot would have to simulate the gaming client I used to get there?!

I say TAHC because if I say CHAT
he may misinterprete and think CHAT CLIENT instead..
(AIM/MSN/IRC/etc..)
I didn't want any mixups.

I agree.
And my point still stands.

No.

I would use a Web Browser to get there.

What point? You said "How you get the connection made doesn't determine if you are a code thief."

Weather or not he may not understand, you're trying to talk about something that doesn't exist.

Then learn to fix your wording, and a web browser is not required to look up a webpage.

Bleh, I'm done with you, you're just far too annoying to deal with.
