Simple, buy another copy. Cracks are a no no here. We support the buying of legit copys of the game so that MS will be willing to make FL2. No one can help you get the file without supporting no CD cracks. Sorry.

Try searching google for the "DLL Archive", and download the missing DLL(s) from there. Then, simply place the file(s) in your FL directory, and in your Windows\System32 directory.

DINPUT8.DLL is a M$ file. It's part of DirectX and is called DirectInput to allow for input from the mouse, joystick, etc. for use in DirectX games. If downloading the dll from the net won't work, just reinstall DirectX.
