Microsoft DirectX 8.1 (Visual Basic)

StagedPeer

The StagedPeer sample connects players together with two dialog boxes that prompt users on the connection settings needed to join or create a session. After the user connects to a session, the sample displays a multiplayer stage that allows all players connected to the same session to chat. Players can start a new game when everyone is ready and the host decides to begin. The host may reject players or close player slots.
