I can''t find ONE good example or tutotial about DirectPlay. Do you know of any?

Did you check the directX9 sdk?? Theres some pretty neat example there. The only problem I see with their example is that they tend to make the code over-complicated (imho).

It''s still understandable though with a little bit of effort.

Yeah really, they have to stuff it full of complications that make beginner (and even intermediate) programmers heads swirl.

I agree with DirectXFreak.

The examples in DXSDK 8 and 9 are very hard. I just want a small simple console application that uses the client/server model.

I''m actually creating a few as I''ve found there to be a real lack of DirectPlay8 material on the web as well..(ie. which go beyond the sdk material a bit more)..

So far one is posted, and just wrapping up one for the game server right now..
