Can't get wii controller working

01-20-2013, 02:27 AM #1

Hey guys, so I've got 3.5 on my mac, and I just can't get the wiimote to connect.

I don't seem to have a "pair up" button, unlike seemingly everyone else, and pressing refresh doesn't help at all.

If I use Darwiin, I can connect my Wiimote to my mac no problem, but nothing I do seems to effect it in Dolphin.
The Wiimote ID is RVL-CNT-01.

Any help or advice? I've tried installing later/earlier builds of Dolphin, but that hasn't helped. Maybe I'm just being dumb, but yeah.

Thanks guys.

Go to System Preferences > Bluetooth, remove the Wii Remote from that list, then open Dolphin, make sure Wiimote 1 is set to Real Wiimote, then press 1+2 and click Refresh. If that doesn't help, screw around with it more – you learn a lot of things from experimentation, y'know!

Okay, managed to get the remote connected, however, the only button I can use in any game seems to be the home button.

Any more advice?

Update for anyone else who had this problem. I fixed it by going

Config > Gamecube > Switch "Port A" to "Nothing". That did it for me.

Depending on the game, yes that would work ^^ :p

Built-in? I don't think so. Add-on? I think so. :p
