Except for some work in order to ensure compatibility with the server, this client is pretty much
unchanged.
## Requirements
### Installing DirectX 9.0c
The client has been updated to DirectX 9. This means that if DirectX 9 is not installed on your computer, you might be met with one of these error messages:

![picture](/doc/img/directx-error-2.png)
In this case, simply [download the DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010) from Microsoft's website](http://download.microsoft.com/download/8/4/A/84A35BF1-DAFE-4AE8-82AF-AD2AE20B6B14/directx_Jun2010_redist.exe) (SHA-1 checksum: `7E5D2E5E1A13FBC47F990CC55CBDB428CD12F759`). This is a self-extracting archive, so simply create a new folder, run the executable and extract its contents to that folder.
In this working folder, find and run `DXSETUP.exe` in order to start the install.
After the installation is complete, your client should run without issue.
