I thought I share this in case others struggle with the same problem.


My system: W7 64 Pro – DirectX 11 - everything else is recent or up-to-date.


Problem: DCS World 1.2.5 (download version) installs flawlessly. However, when trying to launch, Error message appears claiming that d3dx9_43.dll is missing. A search reveals this to be true.

Many differing opinions on the interweb as to the solution. The one that worked for me without a hitch:

DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer

You can download it from here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/confirmation.aspx?id=35

I'm posting this link because another page with exactly the same content resulted in me downloading a corrupt file, a dud.

If anyone is as daft and therefore out of necessity as careful and hesitant as I am, this Forum thread might allay your fears: http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3818874

The post by EinsteinEP (scroll down a bit) is the one that sums it up nicely.


Problem solved. :cool:
