With only built-in d3dx9* dlls used I can get past the intro videos but the game crashes when I try to start a new game or the tutorial from the menu:
... wine: Call from 0x7b838163 to unimplemented function d3dx9_36.dll.D3DXOptimizeFaces, aborting ...
Native d3dx9_36.dll is a workaround.
The demo installs a bunch of native d3dx9* dlls; make sure you're using the built-in ones. To prevent the game from crashing early, you might need to modify the following line in ~/My Games/Sid Meier's Railroads Demo/Settings.ini: VBlankSynch = 1 ; set it to 0 to avoid the crash/hang.
