Hi, everyone!
this is hardly patching question, so I decide to ask it here. Can you help to set up Wii remote?
1. I have "trust" bluetooth adapter
2. I have already tried to set up on two different win 8 machines
3. . . . with and without Bluesoleil drivers
4. in booth cases conection is succesfull
5. . . . But I cant set up GlovePIE nor see any change on wiimote module
6. I also tried on Usine v.5 and Hollyhock II

I know the wii-mote works, I've ran with the latest HH2 and controlled some lights with.
I'll try again and see if I can give a hand on figuring.

I have also tried on Mac. Connection is established, but all lights are endlessly flashing and nothing happens in Hollyhock
Do I need any special drivers on Mac?

really strange, and no drivers are needed on Mac,
Have you try to use the red button to sync ?
code=0000 in options ?

wii connects only with 1+2 buttons. When I press sync it disconnects automaticaly, so I need to press 1+2 again.

Whera are those options you are talking about? I'm not mac user, just tested on my friends machine

no, you can also find a red button near the battery
you can see the option button in the bluetooth panel when you try to connect the first time, the 0000 is the connection code by default

ah, I thought this red button is sync. So it disconnects after I'm pressing this red button and reconnects after 1+2.
Yes I remember that code 0000 , but now it just connects and disconnects without asking any code.

Didn't realise you could use a wii mote as a controller, I'm intrigued by the potential and will definitely look into this!

Unfortunately I haven't got it work. Probably there is new generation wii motion plus that are not compatible with Hollyhock. I have already tried on win8.1 win10 and Yosemite[MacBook Air] with no luck.

On PC:
I tried with two different Bluetooth adapters "Trust" seems more stable, but time to time losses connection anyway. "Asus" doesn't connect at all with my wii. (tested with game emulators)
MAC:
Connected without problems, but I haven't tested any application. except Usine that wont work for me



No I haven't tried with OSCulator jet. Need to borrow MAC again

Do you know anything for windows to test?

Hello r.error,

Only one solution to use wiimote on PC it is :

1°) A Wiimote by Nintendo

2°) Use : http://www.bluesoleil.com/ for connection.

On Mac Os you need :

1°) A Wiimote by Nintendo

2°) Install OSCulator (The free version) Just for pass out the PIN code step.

Yes it is original Nintendo. I give up few month ago, because it must be as simple as you said. First I thought there is general connection problem with windows, because 1+2 connects and disconnects after while + leds keep blinking when I press any button. My wii connects better with just one button 1, 2 or any other. After connection is established nothing is blinking - I think this must be normal behavior. Here is an video:

i see you still use an old version of Usine, have you try with the latest version ?
you run Usine after the connection is established with blue soleil ?

I can confirm, yes. Just downloaded latest version and run Usine after connection has been established.
My wiii is too much "original" :)
