Ping tool?

[Jaakko]

Where do I get a tool that checks pings in bnet?

btw, just gotta add my little bit. I don't think you should be kicking based on pings. A high ping does not necessarily mean the player will lag the game. I get kicked, a lot, in many games, for being from Alaska. My ping is generally 100-150 on East Coast servers, and so people assume I just have a crappy connection. Gets annoying, if you know what I mean.

I never would kick someone unless they lag for more than 30 seconds, being a dick or not playing properly eg. teamkilling, going wrong way on purpose.

WC3 banlist: no nics detected......??

 

[Parrothead]

Banlist cant ping yourself... only other people.

 

[Jacek]

yeah if you want your ping, come to channel #allstars and type .pingme

 

[Jaakko]

I want to ping other people not myself because I host.

download banlist
make sure wincpap (sth like this) is installed - it's a packet sniffer
host a game
type /pingall in chat (with banlist on ofc)
Ctrl-V enter

Make sure banlist is on before you start hosting, as it will not work if you run it up after hosting.

Also, you should probably kick people who have negative pings because they may be a bot(I've seen it happen- twice).

 

[Dr Super Good]

You can not have -ping techinacly, as -ping means that the ping signal was sent back before you sent it out, which probably is bot behaviour but there is no reason for bots to join wc3 games nor to have a ping hider.

No normal computer can have -ping.

 

[busterkomo]

It can happen(actually, I think stealthbot has an option for ping spoofing).
Also, some bots join games to advertise various things.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Never had this happen in WC3, never will. WC3 aint Diablo II.

Well, on my Gateway (which is not any Warcraft 3 default, it is South African) you can type /pingall or /ping <nickname> or /p to see yourself

Although if there are many people online, I would not recommend /pingall.
