--- Comment #2 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2010-07-29 13:13:57 --- This bug also affects Faces of War (retail), from the same developer as Men of War. The error message is almost the same: 'No pixel shader 'PS' in effect 'shadow/sm' (erendershader.cpp, 264)'
Installing native d3dx9 libs makes the game happy and it'll start properly.
