0x101: Unknown Version

[Camel]

ah okay it seems i've made a big assumption i shouldnt have
for a chat bot, i entirely agree--the values should be determined based on system settings. however, my bot is a not-for-newbies ops bot. it's critical for many of the functions that it does to work that the strings be in english. for that reason, my bot will always connect to bnet in english. what the end-user sees, however, can be customized (command names, ranks, etc).

[Tazo]

can someone help me.. -.-

Once again, camel is being.. well.. a camel.

Skywing is right...hardcoding things can lead to problems.

Not to mention that it changes what languages friends notifications will be sent in.

Really? I can't seem to get mine in anything but english...Am I missing something?

The MPQ localeid specifier determines which languages friends notifications about you will be sent in.  I know this is kind of backwards (it'd be best if friends notifications were received in the language you specify, instead of sent, but that's how the Battle.net programmer felt like doing it).

Just don't befriend anyone who speaks a language other than your own and you'll never notice that it's backwards.  After all, no one on battle.net speaks a second(/third/fourth) language well enough to talk to people from other countries anyway... *cough*

I'm still seeing friends notifications about my bot in english.

Which field did you change? LCID/LangID or MPQ locale?

What is this "MPQ localeid" of which you speak? the DWORD after the product version ?

Wow, so people see me join channels in Swedish?

Not with Starcraft, which isn't localized like that.  IIRC, only Warcraft III sets the MPQ localeid to something other than language neutral.

The MPQ localeid is one of the fields which is always zero for non-Warcraft III games and is nonzero for Warcraft III
