Hey guys.
I really really need your help cause I have a seemingly uncommon problem (inferred from some googling).
I have installed the game just fine , created my account and started playing , except that I cannot see the icon representing me in the game , and I cannot see any monsters.
I can see my name and the name of the monsters , except that it is flying over ... nothing.
Thanks in advance for your help (I have tried reinstalling the game , unsuccessfully)

    Not that uncommon. Read this post. Especially the last bit.

    If you search in our support system:

    I am getting a d3dx9_42.dll file missing or similar error message, and/or getting missing NPCs, objects, or characters in-game, what is going on?


    1) If you encounter a DirectX error, dll error, or invisible characters, you can try updating with this on Windows 7, Vista, and XP:

    Web Installer
    http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=352) Then restart your computer.

    You will need to install this if you get those kinds of errors, even if you have Windows Vista or Windows 7 so that DirectX 9 files can be copied over to the right spot.

    --OR--

    You can try this method:

    We found one source for the dll file, but don't know how genuine it is, so use AT YOUR OWN RISK.

    1) You can download d3dx9_42.dll here: http://dllcentral.com/d3dx9_42.dll/9.27.952.3001/download/

    2) Paste this file into your system32 and system folder. Also put it in your syswow

    3) Navigate to your System32(32Bit OS) or SyWOW64(64Bit OS) Folder.

    Note: The location of System32 or SyWOW64 is
    C:Windows\System32 (If you are using 32Bit Windows)
    C:\Windows\SysWOW64 (if you are using 64Bit Windows)

    4) Paste the d3dx9_42.dll into this folder.

    5) Run the game. It may or may not work now.
