use nintendont from hbc only or loader only don't mix
usb loaders have global option to turn hid on for instance wiiflow mods in my sig use "usb_hid=yes" in wiiflow ini to make hid on by default for all games
you can also select different settings for different games as settings are saved on game basis too
thanks for your help. i have one more question. can i use a HID usb controller while in wiiflow/nintendont menu's? this would be bloody awesome if i could. would save me using 2 controllers to play a game lol
