Looking at your scripts\ folder if you are going to use the LoadWine files you need to have WineD3D's files in the scripts\ folder as well.

As per its installation instructions:

Copy the WineD3D dll's into the ASI 'scripts' folder. Usually this will be the wine3d.dll, libwine.dll and one or more of the following: d3d8.dll, d3d9.dll, d3d10.dll, d3d11.dll, d3d11core.dll, dxgi.dll or ddraw.dll

However, if you are not using any other d3d9.dll file in the main directory (such as injectSMAA) you currently do not need to use LoadWine. So if you are still having issues then try removing LoadWine from yourscripts\ folder and placing the WineD3D files back into the game's main directory.

If you are still having issues you may have a buggy/bad .exe. Where did you get the sh2pc.exe from?

I am pretty sure this is not an issue with d3d8to9. This is either an issue with WineD3D or with LoadWineD3D ASI. You can see in issue #42 where the issue with d3d8to9 is red tint in the videos and WindeD3D was added to fix that which caused this issue.

Closing this for now until OP reports back.
