awesome compilation list of aroma plugins

HID-to-Vpad might work. It lets controllers act as the GamePad (in fact the plugin for Aroma you can get from the Discord server only supports spoofing the GamePad IIRC). You might need to make a config file based on the VID/PID and button values found using HID-Test (PC jar file or Wii U homebrew).

It's not what I need... That's just useful for playing Gamecube games with WiiU Pro Controller or Gamecube controllers by using the GC adapter. I don't need that for WiiU games that support WiiU Pro Controllers/Wii motes, since I got them all

I NEED TO USE THE WIIU PRO CONTROLLER AS A WIIU GAMEPAD IN "WIIU GAMEPAD ONLY" GAMES INSTEAD! Especially for those games that don't need touchscreen, motion controls and microphone exclusively.

I want to play Splatoon in single player mode WITHOUT being forced to use the WiiU gamepad, for example.

I share these sentiments and want the same. I've tested the HIDtoVPad plugin that @ArgoRV attached in the original post. Gladly it does work in Aroma but even with USB controllers that should work on the original Tiramisu version they don't work on my WiiU. Instead I need to use the HID to VPad Network Client jar file to connect the controllers over the network, but that works relatively well. Few downsides is sometimes after a while of use, between 20-30 minutes it'll just freeze and no longer accept a connection. Also if the controller is idle for more than 10-15 seconds, the stick data sent to the WiiU will zero out, which is bad for most joypad configs go from 00-ff with the middle hex 80 being the rest zone. So for example in splatoon if the contorller goes idle you'll run diagonally backwards while the camera shoots to the top left. Though if you're actively playing, it seems to behave normally. Outside of again that occasional HID to Pad plugin itself locking up, requiring going back to the home screen, or a soft reset for it to reload.

This is very useful, I'm very interested in re_nfpii but when I tried to install it a few months ago it did not work on my Wii U, I already have the .bin files I do not need them.

I have a question regarding the app that turns off gamepad screen, can it work on vWii when playing with the gamepad?

Yes, but you need to quickly press the button combo while its loading or while still in WiiU mode. Once the console goes into vWii practically all WiiU plugins are disabled. So the button combo won't work anymore.

Thank you, btw I fixed the first issue with the re_nfpii plugin, will try this advice later because I am having another issue with Aroma now where when I exit a Wii VC game back to Wii U it gets stuck on black screen.
Turns out the issue might be related to a specific game (or maybe several) but anyway the issue should be fixed...

Anyway, I'd like to be able use a Switch Pro controller on vWii and turn off the gamepad, how do I do that step by step?

So far I've not been able to pull this off. Using a pro controller in WiiU and even spoofing it on top of the gamepad with HID to VPad is doable, but even when using a VC Inject forwarder I can't get any other controllers working within vWii. Even trying to use the fakemote.app in cIOS didn't help me. Even my gamecube adapter isn't working within vWii, only in smash bros for WiiU which is really annoying personally. Only success I've had is getting the gamepad to spoof to a classic controller for a VC Inject Nintendont forwarder. Outside of that I've had no success. So best of luck to you, and if you figure something out let me know. Would very much like to use my 8bitdo controller for more games.

Bloopair and Aroma plugins are not available on vWii enviroment. An easy way to turn off the gamepad in vWii mode, just take it and walk away from the console until it disconnects, then press the power button on gamepad.

in vWii mode you just press and hold the power button on the gamepad, no need to walk away.

no need to walk away.

You go to the loo ? don't forget your gamepad

There's also a new theme manager plugin by @Juanen100, as pointed out by @KirbyBot in another thread:
