I have fixed the bug in dinputto8 that stopped it from working with this game.

No need to patch exe anymore, you can now use dinputto8 + devreorder to get around device enumeration bug.

Install both of these into game dir then go to [visible] section in devreorder.ini and add your gamepad's GUID or name (or just some dummy entry if you don't have a gamepad). This will filter out USB keyboards and mice from DirectInput device list and prevent the game from crashing.
