I recently installed 1.3 (that's what I had on an HD) on a fresh install Vista32 (300 updates installed but maybe not all), when first trying to run the game I get d3dx9_25.dll missing.
I look around the install file and find some kind of directX installer in dependancies but no go it's only when downloading and running this:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downloa ... px?id=8109

that the game started.

Its OK for me as I know in the event of a non start to re run directx, C++ and .NET installers but for many others it may pose more of a problem, can't these three be put into the installer to run automatically.

Or even in a help file together with a quick explanation down on the other frequent install no go resolution and refresh mismatch.

You didn't read it did you? I am fine others may have more of a problem.

Some but I have the opinion that most computers used for gaming will already have DirectX from other games. So anyone who is running into DirectX problems may not be a regular gamer and thus not know about this.

I think ancientman? has put some dx in the install files but seems it needs more .... 1.4 is coming ....

1.3.5 has the full dx redist install iirc.

Nice to hear should make it easier for many.
