           Summary: Men of War Demo crashes on startup, needs
                    D3DXFilterTexture
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.2-rc3
          Platform: x86
               URL: http://www.bigdownload.com/games/men-of-war/pc/men-of-
                    war-demo/
        OS/Version: Linux

Happened to try this game:
1f5071f09be6ca64ff7de0d7773710be4c398e1d  Men-of-War-Demo.zip
With a clean .wine, it aborts quickly on startup with dialog
"No pixel shader 'PS' in effect 'shadow/sm' (erendershader.cpp, 339)"
and log
fixme:d3dx:D3DXCreateEffectEx (0x196ed0, 0x3f2be48, 4532, 0x1fbf330, 0xda8c30,
(nil), 0, (nil), 0x1fbf21c, 0x1fbf218): semi-stub
fixme:d3dx:ID3DXEffectImpl_GetParameterByName (0x1d2c70)->((nil), PS): stub

winetricks d3dx9_36 seems to work around this and let me play the game.

Interestingly, this game seems to compile shaders on first startup
and cache them in ~/my games/men\ of\ war\ demo/shader_cache
so if you remove all DLL overrides and rerun, it fails later with

wine: Call from 0x7edd7053 to unimplemented function
d3dx9_36.dll.D3DXFilterTexture, aborting

It looks like Owen is working on that function,

Not sure what the status is.

Let's make this bug about the latter problem, since that's probably solvable
first.
