I didn't tried it yet, but you can find a compiled version of the forked [HIDIO] object here:

Greetings,
My students are working on projects where they want to use game
controllers with Pd.
We can currently get the hid object to run in Pd-extended on Mac OS High
Sierra, but I would like to encourage my students to use a newer version of Pd.
Is hid available through a current library or is there an equivalent
external that can provide the same functionality?
Apologies if this has already been covered elsewhere. Thanks for your
help!
- download a recent version of Pd.
- go to "Help" -> "Find new externals"
- type "hid" (wihtout the quotes) into the search field and hit enter
- you should get a list of externals that have 'something' to do with "hid"
- click on one of the lines. the search results are sorted per library
name (alphabetically) and within each library per version (semantically) compatible architectures are shown on top (in a blackish font), incomaptible architectures (if enabled via the preferences) are shown below (in a greyish font)
a quick search on my machine shows that, [hid] is available for Linux (amd64 and i386) and Darwin (i386 and powerpc); the related but slightly different [hidin] is available for Windows (i386).
noteably, there is no [hid] package for Darwin/amd64 (which is what you probably want, when running High Sierra).
