I can't say that I aprove of this. It does give you information about your opponent that your opponent does not have about you. See the comment just above mine. It's basically a hack that instead of reading your opponent's mineral count, reads his ID and gets some more info based on this.


So if you run this program and tell your opponent your bnet id before the start of every game and tell him you know what league he's in and what rank he is that will somehow even the playing field? None of the info displayed by this program isn't publicly available on sc2ranks, just parses the information to make it easier.

You don't think that pro players are able to ask other pros for replays vs upcoming opponents so they can study their playstyle? Would it be acceptable for me to say if I was playing a professional in an MLG I would have an advantage because that player's W/L and rank info is easily accessible to me at Liquipedia or sc2ranks while the pro I play has no info on me?

These negative comments regarding an unfair advantage are plain silly, and for streamers who actually make a living doing it, it's quite beneficial for those watching to gauge the streamers opponent. Great tool, glad to see someone jumped on the idea for those not featured.

I also find it pretty silly you wouldn't release the source, but your code, your choice. GL with further development. In regards to translating Korean, obviously depending on how you coded, if your using the API for sc2ranks, you might be able to integrate the API from google translate (edit: paid api) a translation website in order to parse the characters. Would probably be easier then breaking down bytes and while it won't be the cleanest, would be a good start imo.


Thanks Battleaxe. I am still looking for a nice way to read the Korean from the byte array - something easier said then done in C#. I also agree that it's not anymore of an advantage to anyone - as the information is all free and open.
The only reason I do not have the source up is for my own dignity - aka. It's fairly poorly written. If you have any questions about it however, I don't mind answering.

This is an IRC error. Might I ask if it says 'Can't disconnect' or 'Can't connect'?

Aren't you a featured streamer? Why don't you use Starbot (or how is it called?)?

Hello desRow,
In the majority of cases Winsock is already pre-installed on the computer. This error is occurring because of some PATH issues, but it should still be fine to skip this.
You can further check for Winsock by looking in C:/Windows/system32 to find winsockh.dll. If that's there then there should be no problem with the program.
Thanks,
Redback93

EDIT: I noted that it was being loaded from a seperate drive to the system. If you try moving the files onto the C (or system) drive, then it should work correctly. If it is still not working correctly, then it is your path error.

I never said it gives a huge advantage, just some advantage. But since everyone seems to think it's fine, then I'll embrace it :-) What if I wrote an SC2Gears plugin with similar functionality, with history of previous games if any, would it be useful?

Oh wow, if I had a (insert small amount) valued coin for everytime I have seen this problem.
There are many different things that can be going wrong here.
The most common of which is that an account that is not separate to the broadcasting channel is being used.
It may also be an issue with the parsing to chat (very unlikely, however still a possibilty)
And it may also possibly be another change with the Twitch servers which I believe are still under upgrade.

If this problem persists, then I would like to come and see live, on stream, so we can fix this.
Thanks,
Redback93

Okay then, it will probably be a PATH error. If you want to make certain then I would move it to C:/Windows/system32 and run it, but it's probably already installed. Have you been able to try it out anyway?

Hello users,
There have been some odd things occurring to do with the Twitch chat which may be the source of our problems.
I have started a discussion with the Tech. Supports on the forum and hope to resolve this soon.
More information can be found on the discussion here: http://support.twitch.tv/discussion/3343/irc-chat-not-posting-to-twitch-tv

It seems that my discussion has been taken down - not sure why.
Hmm...
I did just spend some time with darkomicron, and we might have found the resolve.
For the time being, if you want to try putting your Twitch channel name into all lowercase letters,
that could be it.
