                    in d3dx9_36.dll

While testing Bug #10418, the demo refuses to run because of unimplemented
functions in d3dx9_36:

d3dx9_36.dll.D3DXCreateEffect
d3dx9_36.dll.D3DXCreateEffectCompiler
d3dx9_36.dll.D3DXCreateEffectCompilerFromFileA

This is perfectly normal, as we have just begun to implement the d3dx9 dlls.
If you want to use that game you'll have to download a native dll from
dll-files.com or something like that. Just place it in the folder of the game
executable and it should work.

Command & Conquer 3 is an application which apparently suffered from this bug
before. With current git (1.1.35), I am able to load the executable and start a
game without problems. Do these functions have been implemented?

No:

Probably either the game or you installed native d3dx9*.dll

Turns out indeed that the game installed the dlls during setup.

log C&C3 1.3.3

These functions are called in latest git.

However, Command & Conquer 3 1.09 remains unable to start without native
d3dx9_36.dll. I have uploaded my console output. From my understanding the game
depends on a bunch of functions which are still stubbed. Otherwise it could
also be http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16571

Those functions are now implemented. The next bug most of these applications
are hitting is bug 25857.

In ANNO 1404 I can see the menu! That had not been possible before. My Laptop
froze after starting the game, but that could be another problem.

Red Alert 3 is also working now completely, it uses the same engine as Command
& Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars.

Used Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit wine 1.6-rc3 and fglrx 13.4.
