SimpleConnect illustrates how to network to other players on the
using DirectPlay. After joining or creating a session, a simple game

players when the "Wave To other players" button is pressed.

User's Guide
============
Enter the player's name, and choose a connection type. Choose "Wait for Lobby
Connection" for inside-out lobby launching or choose a network provider.
Use the Multiplayer Games dialog to either search for an active game to join,
or to start a new game. After game has been joined or created, the game begins
immediately. Other players may join the game at any time. The host player may
also leave at anytime since the DirectPlay automatically migrates the host player.
Programming Notes
=================
This sample was intended to be very simple, showing the basics of using
the DirectPlay API.
