You can intercept the packet in GarenaTCP without having to modify GHost++.

I am not sure how can i understand that it is 'map download start' 'map download finish' or simply 'map download' packet.

As a very temporary and very unstable test i made this:

in

handleLocalPacket (GarenaTCP.java)

I am using

data.length == 1460 || data.length == 1207

to detect map download packets.

Is there any better way, you know?

Full code (just for you to understand):
[initial purpose is to make special "maximumBufferedPackets" value for map downloads]

    synchronized(packets) {
        while(maximumBufferedPackets != 0 && ((packets.size() > maximumBufferedPackets) || ( packets.size() > 20 && (data.length == 1460 || data.length == 1207 )) ) ) { //let's wait a while before sending more
            Main.println(12, "[GarenaTCP " + conn_id + "] debug@" + System.currentTimeMillis() + ": " + conn_id + " waiting because of " + packets.size() + " packets");

            if(terminated) {
                //oh, we terminated, don't loop here forever!
                return;
            }

            try {
                packets.wait(100);
            } catch(InterruptedException e) {}

            //continue to standard retransmit packets
            standardRetransmission();
        }

        packets.add(packet);

        //also update the packet retransmit queue here
        packetRetransmitQueue.add(packet);
    }

Refer to http://bnetdocs.org/ . To initiate a download, the client will send to the server (player -> host bot) a W3GS_STARTDOWNLOAD packet (http://bnetdocs.org/?op=packet&pid=443). You can capture http://bnetdocs.org/?op=packet&pid=467 to get the client's current download status, including when they finish downloading (the total map size can be extracted from http://bnetdocs.org/?op=packet&pid=441 (sent from server to client).
