Hello, I'm new to the DOOM community, tho I've gravitated around for quite a few years. I bought Ultimate DOOM on Steam yesterday and was really confused but had some fun. I wanted to have more fun and decided to install Brutal DOOM, but no matter the version of GZDoom, the tutorial I followed or even the use of ZDL, I wasn't able to launch the game and kept on having this error code : "DirectInputCreate failed: 80004005"
I added the bug repport as I read on another topic (but it didn't helped me)
Thanks in advance for your answers, have a nice day.

Contrary to popular belief, we are not all-knowing-all-seeing magical beings!
If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.
We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

Re: recurring problem
You certainly installed more then just BD.
What you could do is, delete one resource file at a time until you can play properly.
My guess is DOOM.WAD and BD.pk3.
With that many unrelated resource files you are bound to run into trouble.adding C:/Users/[My username]/Desktop/Brutal DOOM/Doom/gzdoom.pk3, 583 lumps

Re: recurring problem
Won't run even the iwad alone. First clean up the folder and install a recent GZDoom version, that's ancient.

Re: recurring problem
So, I did a total reinstall of Ultimate DOOM (deleted the previous folder existing) and reinstalled a newer version of GZDoom in a brand new folder, I tried to play and it worked like a charm, I managed to the first world without any problems.
But now I hesitate a lot before trying to install Brutal Doom as well, any hint of what should I do ? Tutorials didn't helped that much the first time so I'm quite reluctent.
Thanks again.
Edit: I turned on my PC again this morning, and I was unable to launch GZDoom (without Brutal Doom), it said the same error code (DirectInputCreate failed: 80004005), again I joined the report in this edit.
