I suppose if there are two cursor, it means you have two controllers. it shouldn't be a bug. you even have it on different homebrew. (though, they might have the same base)

Wii or WiiU?
which controller are you using (not necessarily connected, just wondering which others you have)? only wiimotes, or classic controllers, gamecube, or any other controllers or devices (wiifit board)?
are the cursor different colors/player number2? can you control both?

I suppose the gamecube controller is not connected? (that would be too easy!)
I don't understand why it would detect 2 players if it doesn't "power up" a second controller automatically. only a connected controller would be auto-powered, like a connected gamecube controller.

ah, something I didn't ask, which revision of the loader are you using? 1268? 1269mod (why would you use it on wii, but why not)?
I changed the controller sources recently, I removed classic controller support (libogc is doing it now), and added a beta of WiiU gamepad support in 1269mod.
I wonder if any of these changes might affect you.

what fixed it? disconnecting the gamecube controller, or updating the loader?
If the later, I wonder which revision you had.

if the problem was the gamecube controller, the cursor appear if the stick is not in "default position". Maybe your controller has a bad calibration with a direction always active, and the cursor was probably moving by itself.


glad we found how to fix it :)

you can check the revision number from the credit page inside settings.
That doesn't explain why Wiixplorer does it too and you are the only one that reports this "bug"

but there's no new update for a long time, and I didn't notice it myself even when I beta tested the loader for other devs and I use it since 1.0
he probably used a very old version of the loader, no idea which version of WiiXplorer he has.
