Well fuckaduck. I am not new to pirating and I tried for hours everything suggested to get this working with no luck. Then I saw on page 104 Funog1's suggestion if you have an 5700XT (or possibly another AMD GPU) and it worked.
Heres what did.
1) downloaded the game and crack and followed the guide
2) downloaded and installed the latest AMD driver 23.9.1
3) used 7-zip to open the AMD driver package I just downloaded
4) copied atidxx64.dll from C:\Users\MSI\Downloads\whql-amd-software-adrenalin-edition-23.9.1-win10-win11-sep6.exe\Packages\Drivers\Display\WT6A_INF\B395348\ to where the crack goes in the game directory C:\Users\MSI\Desktop\FallenDollBeta131VRhotpatched\FallenDoll(Beta1.31)(VR)\WindowsNoEditor\FallenDoll\Binaries\Win64
finally it worked
hope this helps someone in September 2023
