Now you'll have to register these library by calling "wine regsvr32 dpnet.dll". This will add some needed registry entries."
How can I do that?? THX
--- Comment #19 from Hugh Perkins hughperkins@gmail.com 2009-08-06 22:31:03 --- Is there some way we could change the title of this bug to something like:
"DirectPlay not implemented in Wine, and needs native Windows dlls to be installed."
... otherwise, for example in the Total Annihilation page, http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=7306 , someone just glancing at the page might assume that, as the bug says at the moment, online play actually doesn't work, which is not exactly what the bug is saying, and not really true, since there are workarounds available, by following the instructions at http://wiki.winehq.org/DirectPlayGames .
--- Comment #20 from Hugh Perkins hughperkins@gmail.com 2009-08-11 05:47:07 --- winetricks updated to install directplay, from DirectX 9 redistributable, which surprisingly works ok, eg against Total Annihilation, which is a game from 1997.
Get it from svn:
http://winezeug.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/winetricks
Just type:
"sh winetricks directplay"
Tested against Total Annihilation http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=7306
