Credits go to: elishacloud Description This DLL file is a DLL module that is designed to improve compatibility in games using DirectInput 1-7 (dinput.dll) by converting all API calls to their equivalent DirectInput 8 (dinput8.dll) ones. This allows older games to use newer tools and wrappers written for DirectInput 8. An example of an engine that can make use of DirectInput is Unreal Engine. This also serves to disable mouse acceleration in older DirectInput engines. Installation To install just unzip the dinput.dll file into the folder of a DirectInput 1-7 program or game. Password is pcgw Note: Do not attempt to overwrite any DLL file in a Windows system directory, as it is currently not supported and will not work. Uninstallation Delete the dinput.dll file from the game's directory. You can also delete the associated log file, if there is one.
