All rights reserved. // //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description =========== A very simplistic Client application that can only connect to a server, and make funny faces to other players on that server. Path ==== Source: DXSDK\Samples\Multimedia\VBSamples\DirectPlay\SimpleClient Executable: DXSDK\Samples\Multimedia\VBSamples\DirectPlay\Bin User's Guide ============ Connect to a server, and make funny faces. Programming Notes ================= The SimpleClient sample allows players to make funny faces at anyone else on the server. * The "Make Faces" button is pressed. See cmdFace_Click. 1. Fills out a byte array using nothing, since all we can do is make faces. 2. Calls DirectPlay8Client.Send with the byte array. The server will receive this message and handle it. * Handle DirectPlay system messages. See implemented DirectPlay8Event interfaces - Upon Receive event: Checks message type, and if the following: Msg_NumPlayers - Change the number of current and max players in this session, update UI Msg_NoOtherPlayers - Notify the client there are no other players in the session Msg_SendWave - Notify that someone made a funny face at us.
