    After updating patcher.com, download dxwebsetup from Microsoft.

    Takes about 5-10 minutes to download. Then do a complete reboot.

    Open game and enjoy.

    Do not reinstall the game if you are having DirectX issues and cannot see the characters. That's a waste of time.

    Installing DirectX 9 won't downgrade you if you already have DirectX 11 installed, it will just install the missing files that PWI needs.

    If you don't want to use the DirectX 9c web installer link (here), you can get the DirectX 9c offline installer from here (95.7 MB).

    If you are having other problems besides being unable to see your characters or getting DirectX 9 installed, try running a full verify on your client.

    Beyond that, please check the Technical Support Zone forum for technical support problems.

    its exactly as everyone else is saying, you need to reinstall directx 9. BUT, the game can not be running when you reinstall. Meaning, client, updater, patcher, any of the above cannot be running. Once the directx is done installing reboot the pc without opening the game. Your problem should be fixed. I wanna stress one more time. Install DirectX without the game running At All, then reboot, (once again without opening the game)

    Once you have rebooted completely the game should load correctly.

    Cheers!

    Can I have the link for the DirectX 9 download? Also, will I need to uninstall DirectX before reinstalling the updated version?
