Hi, === w8 (32 bit client) === Timeout
Anybody know if DirectPlay is supported on Windows 8?
I doubt it is installed by default as it is deprecated but you should be able to get it for 32bit Windows. It was never supported on 64bit and it misses on all 64bit Windows versions.
The testbot is 32bit, so maybe something else is going wrong. Can someone check if the dpnet.dll is installed by default? I currently don't have a access to a windows 8 machine.
It tests are timeout doing hr = CoCreateInstance(&CLSID_DirectPlay8Client, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, &IID_IDirectPlay8Client, (void **)&client);
Are you doing the interactive tests? Those do time out on Windows for whatever reason.
No, the tests aren't interactive, so this shouldn't be the issue. All other windows version pass, so this windows 8 issue is confusing.
