For all other games, Game Type can be set to 0x00.
Sub Game Type:
- For Greed, this is resources in multiples of 2500 (0x01 = 2500, 0x02 = 5000, etc).
- For Slaughter, this is minutes in multiples of 15 (0x01 = 15, 0x02 = 30, etc).
- For Ladder, this indicates if disconnects count as a loss (0x01 = Yes, 0x00 = No).
- For Team Melee, this is the number of teams (0x01 = 2, 0x02 = 3, etc).
- For Team Free For All, this is the number of teams (0x01 = 2, 0x02 = 3, etc).
- For Team Capture The Flag, this is the number of teams (0x01 = 2, 0x02 = 3, etc).
- For Top vs. Bottom, this is the players to team ratio (1-7).
- For any other game type, it is 0x01 which indicates no sub game type.
Viewing Filter:
- 0xFFFF is used to use the combination of values in this packet.
- 0xFF80 is used to show all games.
- For STAR/SEXP/SSHR/JSTR, viewing filter is set to 0x30.
- For DRTL/DSHR, viewing filter is set to 0xFFFF by the game, but setting it to 0x00 will disable any viewing limitations, letting you view all games.
Reserved (0):
- This value is hardcoded to 0x00 by all games.
Number of Games:
- This is the number of games to list. For a full listing, it's safe to use 0xFF. By default, DRTL/DSHR sets this to 0x19.

Any chance you could revise this, and include the values for WAR3 and W3XP in?

I don't know if the second DWORD value is zero in ALL games and ALL versions. I do know that it is hard-coded in the current version of Starcraft: Broodwar, though.
