Installed the files from Hate's file dump page on a new laptop i got, however after following instructions post extraction via 7zip and renaming the eqgame.exe folder creating a short cut with patchme at the end, i keep getting a eqgame.exe - System Error message that reads:
The program cant start because d3dx9_30.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
I've done this and reinstalled 3 times now...same issue...what gives?!?
