Can't use DX9 plugin?

lancelott · September 18th, 2008

The last SVN revisions for who knows how long have not been allowing me to use DX9.

I'm using Daco's SVN build, 563. When I start Dolphin, it says "Failed to load plugin Plugins\Plugin_VideoDX9.dll - unknown error." I've tried deleting my settings and that doesn't make a difference.

Does anyone know if this plugin just isn't supposed to work currently, or if there is a way to fix it? Maybe there's a revision that had a working DX9 plugin that I can grab? I had it before in a revision that was in the single digits...

Update your DirectX: Download details: DirectX End-User Runtime

Oh.... That's one of the things I forgot to do when I recently reinstalled Windows. Hopefully that does the trick.

It should, it is one of the most common error poeple post here and that usually fixes it.
