Wrong again: DirectX apps only fall back to GDI if they were programmed with such fallback feature (until now, the only app I saw with this feature was the Windows version of Bejeweled 3 game from PopCap). And I'm pretty sure this isn't the case for Dolphin. Just launch Dolphin without the needed DX DLLs and all you'll get when trying to boot a game will be a nice black screen followed by a "Failed to load a compatible DirectX library" error and a "Dolphin was stopped working properly" crash...

From now, the online installer I pointed to Shibe should handle his needs until I get free time to push an updated version of the launcher. BTW, I forgot to say that you can use the latest development versions with this launcher by unpacking the downloaded file from Dolphin site inside DolphinEmulatorPortable\App\Dolphin (or DolphinEmulatorPortable\App\Dolphin64 for x64 version)...
