Dear developers,
I have tried to run Civ4BeyondtheSword.exe with the internal d3dx9_33.dll
I can run the programme but when I start a game, it hangs. I saw that a lot of FIXME's with the message:
fixme:d3dx:d3dx9_base_effect_get_pass_desc Pixel shader and vertex shader are not supported, yet.
Therefore, I tried to finishing implementing the function. Find attached a patch that works. With this patch, the programme does not hang. Fell free to study, redo it or rewrite it but please I look forward to somebody who corrects it and manages to integrate that function in the wine tree so that I do not need to compile the wine.
On the other hand, find attached an image, where you can see that the settler image seems to something in the middle. Furthermore, the leaders also seem to have something in the middle. Actually, it seems that the image that should be behind the leader in the bottom is in the middle of them and bend vertically when they bend. I assume this is not because of the patch but I guess that this information could serve to locate and correct another bug.
