wine users - Nov 2010 - Problems with Wine importing DLLs

Hello,

I'm trying to set up an MMO called "Eudemons Online" in Wine since
it's been awhile since I've tried and Wine has made great strides.

Installs fine, updates fine, awesome! Better than before!

My problem comes when I try to launch the game, play.exe (the launcher) executes
soul.exe (the actual game client) and soul.exe throws this error:



Code:
err:module:import_dll Library MFC42.DLL (which is needed by
L"Z:\\home\\anthony\\.wine\\drive_c\\Program Files\\Eudemons
Online\\Chat.dll") not found
err:module:import_dll Library Chat.dll (which is needed by
L"Z:\\home\\anthony\\.wine\\drive_c\\Program Files\\Eudemons
Online\\soul.exe") not found
err:module:import_dll Library MFC42.DLL (which is needed by
L"Z:\\home\\anthony\\.wine\\drive_c\\Program Files\\Eudemons
Online\\soul.exe") not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for
L"Z:\\home\\anthony\\.wine\\drive_c\\Program Files\\Eudemons
Online\\soul.exe" failed, status c0000135




After some googling, I learned it might help if I get those DLL files in the
wine system32 dir and register them in winecfg. So I go ahead and copy MFC42.DLL
and chat.dll into the system32 dir (which were originally found in the game
folder) and told winecfg to override them.

Same error. Help!

Okay, I installed MFC42 using winetricks and that seems to have fixed it. Which
I find strange because copying and registering in winecfg didn't. Whatever.


My new problem is that the game asks for DirectX 8.1

Winetricks doesn't seem to have this. Should I just get it from MS website
and install?

Probably installing DirectX 9 would solve this.

Code:
sh winetricks d3dx9
