Let's do stuff.
As you may know ENB doesn't really work with modern AMD cards, particularly 5000 and 6000.
Sometimes AMD fixes d3d9 injection in their drivers but most of the times the best you can get is black screen with game cursor. That's it.

After trying messing around different solutions nothing really worked for me (I have 6600 XT) but I managed to get it working.
It's not perfect, there are some performance drops and stuttering but at least it works now.

TESTED ON ADRENALINE 23.5.2 DRIVERS

You need:
1. Clean installation of DDAA (you can use texture mods, just make sure your main game folder only has nativePC folder, steam_api.dll and DDDA.exe)

2. DXVK from github: https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/releases
[Update: you can also use async version for slightly better performance. Also from Github: https://github.com/Sporif/dxvk-async/releases]

3. Enb mod you want (wickfutENB in my case)
4. Enb wrapper version that your enb installation require.
[Update: Link added: http://enbdev.com/download_mod_dragonsdogma.htm]

Steps:

1. Install ENB wrapper so it looks like this:

2. Install ENB mod and override if prompted.

3. Extract d3d9.dll from x32 folder inside DXVK archive somewhere else like desktop for example and rename it to something else like d9vk.dll then paste it to the game folder.

4. Edit enblocal.ini so PROXY section looks like this and save:


[PROXY]
EnableProxyLibrary=true
InitProxyFunctions=true
ProxyLibrary=d9vk.dll


5. Boot the game (it may take a while for load up)

6. ENJOY :)
Legacy previous text version.

Does running the game through this DXVK change the long loading times when using ENB? Or is it still the same?

it works fine with my GTX 1650 and Resonant ENB. I prefer switch off ENB in game, cuz it consume my FPS.

If anyone else is getting weird lines following their character setting "ForceAnisotropicFiltering" in enblocal.ini to false fixed that for me.
