Since there is a problem(black screen) to enable both "progressive mode"
and "padhook" for some games (DM v2.5 or v2.6),
here is a mod version of DM v2.6(not "Lite") to disable
"padhook" automatically as long as "progressive mode" is enabled.
Also this mod version should fix "Mario Kart Double Dash" freeze issue.
(in the original DM v2.6)
If anyone would like to try (no harm), the wad file is available

Thank you for all the help guys. Unfortunately, I'm still clueless.
I went and compared the MD5 checksums for the Billy Hatcher dumps, and they're an exact match. I tried installing DIOS MIOS 2.5 and using that instead, but I could only find it on a less reputable site (Winrar said the archive had invalid authenticity information). I tried it anyway (probably a bad idea), and the console powered down at the end of the opening FMV, so I just went back to 2.6. Now I've switched to the latest USB Loader GX (r1209), and it's giving me the exact same problem as Cfg USB Loader, freezing when I first start fighting with my first egg.
If it helps, here's some more information: No disc doesn't work at all--it just gives a black screen and freezes, never showing the DIOS MIOS logo, with either loader. I'm running off a PNY 8 GB flash drive, which I freshly formatted to FAT32 in 32 KB clusters just for this (used to use it for my Wii games). Maybe that's an issue, I dunno. My system menu version is 4.3 US.
And while I said Kirby Air Ride was working fine, it seems to have started freezing or powering down (I think it's done both) at random times too, so there's definitely something I've done wrong.
Edit: Just to clarify, those problems with Kirby Air Ride started before I started mucking with everything else, so it wasn't something I broke along the way.

@airline38 Good news DML is still being worked on, I may try this WAD file when I get some time (Maybe on Saturday) even though I'm not really having any issues with 2.6, I hope this fixes the issues for the others!
Godzilla hasn't really worked since as far back as 2.2. Mortal Kombat Deception also freezes with a horrid buzzing sound when knocking players into breakable objects in DIOS MIOS 2.6. It's better to use 2.5 for now and only use 2.6 for when you want to play Killer7 or something.
All right, finally got it working. Finally found DM 2.5 on another site. This time the game's working just fine. Hopefully someone can figure out what was causing the problems with my experience on 2.6 while others had it working fine.
Well, that certainly explains why nothing I've done to get it to play worked, thanks for the info.
holy crap dude, I can play godzilla finally! it STILL freezes/crashes though if I try putting it into prgressive mode, but still interlaced mode works fine no problem, thanks for the mod dude

Is there any chance you could fix Kao The Kangaroo to work? I don't think it ever worked in DML tbh though, also if possible Spider-Man The Movie to work without needing a disc!

I'm presuming these are your notes for Cubivore & Custom Robo (works best 2.2, gfx glitches in 2.6)... I have the same issues. How about Mario Kart DD? On 2.6, it loads just fine but freezes upon pressing start on the main menu.
I am afraid I can't have this game work if none of the DM(L) version worked.
I suppose these are something to do with the "loader".
For example, the "Padhook" is enabled (default) if you use CFG USB Loader
to load a retail disc through DM.
