I made a brand new account because Reddit is useless for anything that isn't venting.
I dunno where I should start, so I'm just going to start wherever. I've been trying to do this for hours.
First I'm constantly having trouble connecting my controller because the Bluetooth keeps on sensing and not sensing the Wiimote. On Dolphin I have the controller as "real," then I'd press "refresh" after pushing the red button or 1+2, and then "scan continuously." Sometimes it works, until it disconnects. Then I usually have to switch controllers and try again.
IF I can connect, the next problem is with trying to connect my Wiimote sensor to my mouse. I tried using GlovePie with the script found here but it won't detect my controller. (I do have the Wii Motion Plus + Nunchucks clicked in.)
I know that script is for keys and I'd personally would like it to bind with my mouse, (I can't find a mouse script) but it won't recognize my Wiimote anyway so I'd just be stuck with the same problem.
So I tried looking to see if anybody else is having the same problem and somebody suggested WiinUPro, so I downloaded the latest version plus the Soft version. I tried using Pro and it detected my buttons but I couldn't find out how to calibrate it so I can connect my Wiimote and my mouse. (I'm assuming that it can't do that anyway?)
So I tried using Soft, and here's where the problem gets specific- it needs me to push the red button to find my device, but if I do that my device will disconnect. It'll say that it can sense my Wiimote and sometimes the Bluetooth page will say that I'm still connected, but my Wiimote will just flash until it shuts off, and then I'm back to the first paragraph.
I tried using my keyboard but for some reason the arrow keys don't work properly. That might actually be a problem with my keyboard though. So basically I'd really prefer playing with a controller if at all possible. Thanks.
Alternatively if there's a way to connect my Joycons to only my laptop so I'm not playing my husband's game while he's playing it, that'd be cool too. Of course I'd probably just have the same problem with the pointer.
