On a somewhat related note, in the case that I can't ever get the cursor to show up, is there a way to make it so that my mouse controls the IR cursor, while the Wiimote does everything else? At least that way I'll be able to get past the stupid 'point cursor at the center' screen of SS, without losing connectivity of the Wiimote itself. If you mean a games pause menu, then usually the button to press is the + button. If you mean the Wii menu, hit the Home button like before, click 'Wii Menu' from the menu, and click 'Yes'. Is there something I'm missing? The Wiimote itself functions perfectly in Dolphin, minus the IR cursor, so I don't think it's a compatibility/sync problem between my PC and the Wiimote. If you mean the Home menu, just push the Home button on the Wii remote. I've tried the candle method, I've tried using some flashlights, heck I even used the original sensor bar itself from my Wii U (powered it on and just set the sensor bar beneath my PC monitor), and nothing. However, SS requires you to point the cursor at the center of the screen before the game can actually start, and my cursor just doesn't show up (it doesn't show up in any other games either). This means that OP just needs to check the hide Wiimote box in the emulated Wiimote config. If the Wiimote isnt pointing at the screen, then it doesnt draw it anywhere. The game draws the cursor on the bit of the screen where the Wiimote is pointing. The Wiimote itself syncs flawlessly to my PC, and all the buttons function normally with all the games I've tested it on. Theres a slightly simpler method than this. So I'm trying to replay Skyward Sword in Dolphin for the HD visuals, and I have a genuine Wiimote with the motion+ attachment.
