Possibility Putting A Bot On A Website

[UnderCover]

I was wondering if there was a way to maybe use PHP to put a  bot on a website and let it connect through a website and you can interact with it so you don't have to download anything?

Well im not sure abouit PHP, but it could definatly be done in Flash, or ActiveX.

if you would make one thorugh activex or something how would you ocnnect to bnet and get responses like i know if you use sockets php cna handle sockets and etc  But im not sure how to connect thorugh them and then get resposnes form the server

You can make a bot in flash!?

Possibly with CSB? Hehe.

I'd think that'd be a little hard to do, we are talking about the same flash here 13inary aren't we?

Macromedia Flash

Yes, I'd say it's possible to create a bot in PHP (in fact I tried once when I was a php newb).

You'll have to look into the php socket and file functions. The catch here is keeping the socket open between page requests. My best guess would try to store in in a session variable, although I doubt you can serialize a socket.

The way I would go about it (which probably isn't the way you'll do it) is I'd set up an RPC-sort of server which is connected to Battle.net. I'd have PHP talk to that every time a page is requested.

Good luck.

Eh? I thought you could use ActiveX controls in flash? If not, one could write an eww++ ISAPI interface...]

I'm pretty sure that you can use ActiveX in Flash, but still, wouldn't this take more effort than VS programming?

What about writing the bot in Flash? Or can Flash only connect "http sockets"?

Well if it doesnt, one could use the Winsock control. Even then, I seriously doubt that flash would be able to perform a checksum, decode a cd key, or hash anything.

so if i used php how would i ge tit to send infomation to bnet and wut socket would i connect too like i would have to deocde a cd key would i exe a check revision file or something

anyone have any suggestions?

Ugh, I already fucking told you everything you need to know.

1. READ THE DOCUMENTATION ON THE SOCKET API. IT ISN'T ALL THAT HARD TO TYPE www.php.net/socket

2. Decide on persistant connections or not, persistant being defined as whether you will initiate a new connection every time the page is loaded. For you, you probably will.

3. Port BNLS to PHP...or if you're lazy and hosting on windows, new Com('CSB'). Perhaps someone has ported it to Java, so you can use the Java->PHP connector stuff to use it. You really want to use BNLS, as hashing in PHP would be...how you say..."ewww."

4. Start with connecting as chat.

If you noticed, I was the only one in this thread who actually gave a workable solution. If you'd pay attention and READ MY POSTS, you might be able to make it.

That is all.
