Title: missing d3dx9_40.dll file
Post by: crutch on January 09, 2010, 01:09:31 PM

missing that file when I try to run the mission editor.

do I need to uninstall and re-DL the mission editor or is there a link to that specific file?

Thanks.

Here is a link to mine.  It goes in your main AH folder.

I'm not sure if just dropping it in will do anything though.  You may have to reinstall either the M.E. or the game to fix it.  Are your sure you have the most current version?

ME tries to start but then the win7 'help' message pops up to tell me the ME has stopped working.

the game is up to date, the ME was downloaded from the AH main page and would not work till the dll file was inserted into the sysem32 folder.

any ideas?

Post this problem in the Tech Support forum.  Sorry, but I don't know anything about Windows 7.  Good luck.  I'm sure it's fixable.
