[BUG] Changing from 0.3d to 0.3e deletes an important file! - Elysian` - 04.05.2012

Hello Guys,

Today, I was working on a server and I converted from 0.3d to 0.3e..
Now,
It came up that it couldn't find "d3dx9_42.dll" which is a system32 file.
If you press "Ok" it will close and Gta will load.

But if you convert from 0.3e to 0.3d and move your GTA file to another directory, the file returns, and the error disappears.

Please can anyone else confirm this?

I'm pretty sure that file is in the GTA directory...

Yeah it is. I've just checked.

Not "d3dx9".
It deletes "d3dx9_42.dll" from "C:\Windows\System32".

Something must of happened i dont think the developers made a function that deletes files from your system32.

SA-MP uses d3dx9_25.dll, not d3dx9_42.dll. It has been that way since SA-MP 0.2.

Quote:

SetOutPath $SYSDIR
File "c:\windows\system32\d3dx9_25.dll"

I can't explain why d3dx9_42 would be touched. It's not used by SA-MP. Perhaps you have some mod installed which uses it.
