wine: Call from 0x7b8402a9 to unimplemented function d3dx9_36.dll.D3DXCreateTextureFromResourceExW, aborting wine: Unimplemented function d3dx9_36.dll.D3DXCreateTextureFromResourceExW called at address 0x7b8402a9 (thread 0027), starting debugger...
Sounds to me like D3DXCreateTextureFromResourceExW need implementing..
'winetricks d3dx9' will workaround it.
