DirectPlay Games
Games that use DirectPlay. A demo version is only listed if it supports multiplayer. DirectPlay got a major rewrite at version 8.
To get multiplayer working for such games (at least those that use a DirectPlay version prior to 8), follow these steps:
place the DLLs in this archive in Wine's windows/system32 directory (usually "~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32")
add DLL overrides (native,builtin) for: dplayx, dpnet, dpnhpast and dpwsockx in "winecfg".
Now you'll have to register these library by calling "wine regsvr32 dpnet.dll". This will add some needed registry entries.

Demo provides multiplayer mode. Full version (with Patch 12.07) works perfectly for joining games, but not hosting it seems... |
