All that installs is the d3dx9_*.dll extension library redistributables, not all of DirectX/D3D. Those are the only parts we need to make the game work.

Can you maybe give me a step by step if is not too much trouble?
Yes, that's in a terminal. There's really not much more step-by-step that I can get. Just have the installer in the Downloads directory under your home directory, run those commands, and do what I said when you run winecfg. Also, make sure to choose *not* to run the DirectX updater when you run the game installer. That's really it.
