Hello,

I haven't been using POL for a while now because I like most everything to run native in Linux, however my daughters want to play a game of theirs but it requires Directx 9 I thought no problem, POL has it as an option so I installed this in Debian wheezy just to find DX9 does not exist as an install option and I cannot find the .pol package anywhere here on the site.

as a not, I also tried type get:424 and get:517 into the searchbar of POL as it states here: http://www.playonmac.com/repository/?script=424 and http://www.playonmac.com/repository/?script=517 which takes me to nothing

Can someone please give me a link to the .pol package so I can install it, or at least tell me what scripts I need and where to put them. Would be very nice if things like this were linked in this website and not just scripts that I have no idea where to put in order to make them work.

Thank you

Just go in PoL install menu then use PlayOnLinux Functions in Other to install POL_Install_dxfullsetup, which is the full DirectX package, for your prefix.
