- 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.
