"
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

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 .

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

For condor soaring it still does not work even with native windows dlls.

Even with 'winetricks directplay', Homeworld2 still does not work. "Network
Unavailable" is the error message in Homeworld2, and the console has no
discernible error message for directplay failing.
