I am very sure that I installed the d3dx9 DLLs before running this game when I was trying to get other games to work
I installed the full version which works as expected. Part of the installation of this game involves a Direct X install
If the D3DXCreateEffectCompiler stub is not the issue, then please attach the log that the application produces. While Wine should prefer the native d3dx9 DLLs over builtin, make sure your prefix contains the native DLLs, and it may not hurt to add explicit overrides for all of them either.
