[Bug 9839] New: Game cannot connect using DirectPlay8.1
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9839 Summary: Game cannot connect using DirectPlay8.1 Product: Wine Version: CVS/GIT Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-directx-dplay AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: xsacha(a)gmail.com CC: blin(a)gmx.net This game: Trash [free download from http://www.inhumangames.com ] is unable to connect to the server in latest git. I have used the directplay DLLs and associated overrides described on the wiki [ http://wiki.winehq.org/DirectPlayGames ]. Using the native DLLs, wine produces no errors or fixme's related to the issue. The only error appears in the game, "Could not connect to lobby." It is my understanding that this game's lobby should work as it is DirectPlay8.1. I was curious on the status of the opensource DirectPlay8.1 libraries. They seem to be a long time coming. Any updates from the two people working on them?

Assuming your IP address is 192.168.0.1, change your /etc/hosts to look like: 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.0.1 coco That should make your game work. This is a configuration issue, not a bug in Wine, resolving as invalid. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I wonder why my /etc/hosts is setup incorrectly on every single distro I've ever installed. Ubuntu, Suse, mandrake, gentoo, CRUX, yeah even source based ones.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9839 --- Comment #5 from Kai Blin <blin(a)gmx.net> 2007-10-11 02:25:21 --- There are some good reasons why distros set up your hostname to point at a loopback address. Assuming your computer gets it's IP address via DHCP, the IP address usually keeps changing. Also, more and more people use laptop computers these days, and don't have network connectivity while traveling. In those cases you want to make sure the hostname actually resolves to an address programs can use. Lots of Unix programs were written with static IP addresses in mind. This turns out to be a problem for Windows programs that were written by people who did not know about BSD socket "best practices". Those programs try to handle binding to an IP address themselves instead of binding to the "ANY" IP address and letting the computer take care of the routing. Many of those programs will fail on Windows if there are two active network cards and you want to play over the one that was initialized first. I have yet to come up with a good solution to this that doesn't require people changing their /etc/hosts file. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Make sure you follow them exactly because I found when you don't you will have problems. 1. Have a valid internet addressible IP address for internet play or proper NAT forwarding. 2. Have a hostname other than localhost. 3. In /etc/hosts, have a valid hostname of your computer listed with your current IP address you want to use and do not have your hostname listed with 127.0.0.1. Do not have "localhost 127.0.0.1" listed first either. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Trash works fine in 1.1.10. This would be because Trash no longer uses DirectPlay 8.1 due to incompatibilies with Windows Vista. Trash now uses RakNET and works fine on Linux.
