Connecting Wii Mote - thread #120

[Ivan1914]

I have read all the other new threads about this problem but can't find a solution.

For a while i was playing games with a PS3 controller wich works perfectly fine. some
games require a wiimote so i bought an original wiimote plus + nunchuk

As posted in the install thread, i connected it to my PC (Win7 x64) and it shows up in the
"bluetooth devices" screen as a working device.

but i haven't found any way to connect it to my dolphin (ver 3.0-363) yet.

i tried the following ways (in all scenarios "wiimote 1" was set to "original wiimote"):
1)
- connect it before starting dolphin via windows device manager
- open dolphin, pressing 1+2 button (so lights start flashing) clicking Wiimote tab "refresh"

2)
- disconnect it from windows device manager
- open dolphin, pressing 1+2 button, clicking "connect", waiting for driver to be installed, clicking "refresh"

3)
- connect it before starting dolphin via windows device manager
- open dolphin, pressing 1+2 button (so lights start flashing again) clicking "connect",
waiting for for driver to be installed (again), clicking "refresh"

4)
- open dolphin
- connect it via windows device manager
- while drivers are beeing installed spamming "refresh" button in dolphin

5)
- disconnect it in windows device manager
- open dolphin, press 1+2 and click "connect", wait for drivers to be installed, click
"refresh" a few times

In none of these scenarios i get a connection in Dolphin. All i notice is, that it is (without
error code) installed in windows device-manager using windows standard drivers and
a few seconds after installation the blinking lights turn out.

Any idea of what i might do to get that thing running?

Sorry for beeing #120 posting with connection issues, but i really have no clue what to
do.

I recently made a program for connecting Wiimotes.

Press "refresh" and keep holding 1 + 2 until it shows up in the list. If it already shows up, skip this step.
Hold 1 + 2 again and then "connect".
As soon as it tells you your controller being connected, you stop holding 1 + 2 and you can start dolphin. Go to the Wiimote menu in dolphin to easily check, if you succeeded ^^.
