0x82 (SID_CLANMEMBERINFO)

[vuther.de]

I've been trying to parse this packet and it has been a big hassle, i've asked like 2/3 people have none of them could figure this out. The status always returns 0, the rank works, clan works, and date joined doesn't really work.
Here's my code for my parsing:

Code Select Expand

       
Case &H82
Dim strClanName As String, intPosition As Integer, bytRank As Byte, strDateJoined As String
   
    intPosition = 9

'status
bytStatus = Asc(Mid(strData, intPosition, 1))
    intPosition = intPosition + Len(bytStatus)

'clan name
strClanName = KillNull(Mid(strData, intPosition, InStr(intPosition, strData, Chr(0)) - 1))
    intPosition = intPosition + Len(strClanName) + 1

'rank
bytRank = Asc(Mid(strData, intPosition, 1))
    intPosition = intPosition + Len(bytRank)

'date joined
strDateJoined = Asc(Mid(strData, intPosition, 8))
    intPosition = intPosition + Len(strDateJoined)

AddChat vbBlue, "Status: " & GetStatus(bytStatus)
AddChat vbBlue, "Clan name: " & strClanName
AddChat vbBlue, "Rank: " & GetRankName(bytRank)

FT = StringToFileTime(strDateJoined)
Call FileTimeToSystemTime(FT, ST)
AddChat vbBlue, "Date joined: " & ST.wMonth & "/" & ST.wDay & "/" & ST.wYear & " @ " & Format(ST.wHour & ":" & ST.w
Minute & ":" & ST.wSecond, "HH:MM:SS ampm")

What does it output?  Supply packet logs, too

I don't think Asc(Mid(strData, intPosition, 8)) is correct

[vuther.de]

Why? What's wrong with it?

[UserLoser.]

Why? What's wrong with it?

For one it's a filetime struct, not a string.  Secondly, Asc() cannot return anything larger than an 8-bit value, and a filetime struct consists of two 32-bit values

[vuther.de]

So what should I do?

[CrAz3D]

mid(data,position,8)
give that a whirley do

[Kp]

Cast it to a FILETIME struct?

[CrAz3D]

Why would he do that?

[MyndFyre]

Why would he do that?

Because that's what it is? 

[vuther.de]

Craz3d, that doesn't work.

[CrAz3D]

Why would he do that?

Because that's what it is? 

My eyes were misread I guess,

was meant as sarcasm as he already knew it was a FileTime

[vuther.de]

Ok well, I still cannot get this to work, pissing the hell out of me

Silly Inner, you must be requesting something wrong?

Is the 'DateJoinned' supposed to be the date the user joinned the channel?
