The DirectPlay IPX/Modem/Serial multiplayer mode doesn't work in the
Software2000 game `Swing' and `Swing Plus'.
In the German release of the game, the game just throws two error boxes:

...

DirectPlay. (Error 1)",00434168 "Attention",00000000) ret=00411c89

The complete trace can be found in the attachment.

This error can be reproduced, either by starting the game without cdrom (in
which case it starts in network-mode), or by starti
nt the game normally, and then trying to launch a new network game.
Unfortunately there are no demo or free versions of this game to include here
(Software 2000 doesn't exist anymore, but distributing abandonware is probably
not legal in all countries).

This error might be related to Bug 4066, but the dplay error is different in
this case.
Installing the native DirectPlay stack with winetricks (sh winetricks
directplay) does not help.
