Ok now it is fixed and applied on emacs, just a final note:
The changes i made to dired-create-files could go to dired-copy-file,
(not tested though) maybe they fit better there than in
dired-create-files.
It would be even simpler:

(when (and (file-directory-p from)
            (file-directory-p to)
            (eq file-creator 'dired-copy-file)) <<<< can be removed
   (setq to (file-name-directory to)))
