The Battle.net Wiki has opened up! It is relying on you to grow!

Also, BNLS has been down for a while and it could be a few days before it comes back. In the meantime, you could try using a BNLS clone. Use at your own risk! I am not responsible for any loss incurred while using BNLS clones.

The version check issue that appeared after the latest Battle.net changes has been resolved.

Thank you for your patience.

I created a Warcraft III style script for SphtBotv3. Download

For even more of a Warcraft III feel and have the user icons behave as they do on the actual Warcraft III client:

If you're on Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, delete (or rename) w3xp_icons.bni to see rank icons only for Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, and default icon for Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne

If you're on Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, delete (or rename) war3_icons.bni to see rank icons only for Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, and default icon for Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos

Additionally, to not use any special icons (may improve performance), delete (or rename) legacy_icons.bni, war3_icons.bni, and w3xp_icons.bni--now the bot will only use the basic icons provided by Battle.net.

FriendsManager.bcp has been added to the plugin downloads section.

Also, ClanManager.bcp has been updated:

- added command /clanstats
- improved quality of online/offline status icons

This is a small update, mostly to the channel list manager. There probably won't be many more updates for a while.

Changes listed here.

ClanManager.bcp has been added to the plugin downloads section.

Features:

- disband clan option available to clan chieftains
- edit clan message of the day option for clan chieftains and shamans, lower ranks may only read message of the day
- member list with rank and online status icons, and dynamic updating of members
- ability to send /whois query and also view a member's profile via member list
- member management options, which includes promoting and demoting members, or removing them from clan
- /claninvite command for chieftains and shamans to invite a user to join the clan

Screen shot

I uploaded screen shots of each style script for previewing.

Feel free to make your own style scripts and submit them to me. They don't have to be based on anything.

Yes, you are reading correctly.

This has been a long time coming, but SphtBotv3 should now run on systems without a NT kernel (ie, Windows 98).

Since it has been so long since an official update (over a year), I don't know everything that has been changed. What I do know has been listed here.

Note: ProfileLauncher has also been updated to be compatible with the new version of SphtBotv3.

The official ClanGnome web site has opened up!

www.spht.net/clangnome

www.valhallalegends.com/spht/clangnome

I plan to provide easily navigable data tables there in the future.

Thought I'd mention this nifty plugin again.

ChatFocus.bcp adds the /chatfocus command to open a conversation window with a Battle.net user. All chat from that person will be forwarded to this window, and when you send a message from the window it will prepend their name. Multiple conversation windows can be open at once. Useful if you host a tech support channel, or tend to talk to a lot of people at once.

Thank you for your support!

ClanGnome is a project I started back in May 2004. Back then I had it roaming Battle.net for a long period of time, and it had been tracking up to 3000 clan channels, but I never made any kind of announcement about it. After time, curiosity took over and people were beginning to question it on various forums and it was raising interest. At that point I came out and described what it was all about, and provided my data tables.

Recently, I came across my source for ClanGnome and decided to do some tweaking to improve its intelligence. Here is a post I made on my forum that explains what ClanGnome is all about.

Maybe you've seen it visit your clan channel. The official ClanGnome uses the accounts ClanGnome@Azeroth and ClanGnome@Lordaeron. Keep an eye out for it!

A new version of WebBot has been released lately.

My heart goes out to all who are in the path of Hurricane Katrina. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I've taken two hundred dollars of last month's donations and forwarded it to the American Red Cross Hurricane Relief.

I ask that any people wanting to donate to my site to, instead, donate directly to the Red Cross Hurricane Relief -- they need your support more than I do.

For more information, visit the Red Cross web site.

UserLoser used to "maintain" this list, but his server died or something so I just uploaded all the scripts I have to here. Enjoy!

With the recent adding of full support for the NBBot command system, Oper is now ready for public testing!

Oper is a powerful automoderation BinaryChat plugin designed to safeguard Battle.net clan channels.

Oper follows the back-end and front-end standards set forth by NBBot.

Download: http://www.valhallalegends.com/spht/oper/

Documentation (including installation instructions) can be found in OperDoc.txt. I recommend grabbing oper_cfg.zip as well, which contains a complete guide to using the new NBBot command system, as well as example user-defined aliases, and a sample user database file.

Report bugs or any unexpected behaviour here.

I'm looking for people to test the new Oper plugin. Oper adds moderation functionality to SphtBotv3. Detailed information about what is supported so far will be provided to testers.

If you're interested, reply here.

The Valhalla Legends web site has switched to a scary Halloween look, as well as the Valhalla Legends Forums!

What better time to check out the Halloween Theme style script for SphtBotv3. Preview.
