Not sure which if all of your questions were based client side or server side.
Anyways this is what I did client side, using shaders.dll

1. How do I get the server IP when I'm a client through scripts/shaders?
|
int server_ip = The_Game()->IP;
The resulting IP is in integer/long notation, you'll have to convert it if you want it string dotted notation. One method of conversion is the following:
struct in_addr addr;
addr.s_addr = The_Game()->IP;
char *dot_ip = inet_ntoa(addr);

2. How do I get the nickname I'm connecting with scripts/shaders? (a way that works with WOL and DirectConnect)
|
To my knowledge, this can only be called AFTER the first frame has been drawn. When I tried calling it otherwise I received a null pointer on obj.
GameObject *obj = (GameObject *)(*TheStar)->obj;
char *player_name = Get_Player_Name(obj);

3. Can I easily get the server name through scripts or should I just read the "wGameTitle=" entry in "svrcfg_cnc.ini" (or what other file is selected in server.ini)?
|
Do you mean xwis/wol server name or server name/title? The following below gets the game title (Ex: n00bstories AOW)
char *server_name = WideCharToChar(The_Game()->GameTitle);
n00bstories Server Administrator
