Hello World,
Ok, I finally managed to find an online store in my country that sells one of those bluetooth adapters(a sena UD100 to be specific) and with any luck it should arrive tomorrow or the day after. So once it arrives I should be all set and have all the components needed to get this thing started.
However, after installing Dolphin and reading up in a bunch of places(yes, including the "Read me first" thread of this sub-forum) to be prepared for when the adapter arrives, I am now more confused then ever....
So, a few questions please, and if they make me sound stupid... so be it:
1. This Wii remote connection guide states that -TR Wii Remotes are not an issue anymore in Bluetooth Passthrough mode, however it doesn't make it very clear(for me at least) if Windows 7 is still an issue or not in Bluetooth Passthrough mode.
2. Do I still need to connect my Wii remote to the pc first as shown in this video (I know that guy ran Dolphin 4 when that video was made, but I figured I'd ask just to be safe) or do I listen to what the Dolphin wiki says here under Real Wiimote quote: "Note: Do not pair the Wii Remote to your computer. The operating system may interfere with Dolphin's ability to connect with the Wii Remote."?
3. Do I just follow what this guide says under windows and ignore everything else?
4. The guide I linked at question 3 says that since 5.0-910 Dolphin has the ability to passthrough bluetooth. But I installed the latest stable release of Dolphin and if I open it up and go to help>about it says there that it's version 5.0. Does this mean I installed the wrong version and I have to uninstall it and install version 5.0-910?
5. If you answer at nr. 4 that yeah I have to uninstall it and install 5.0-910 then should I limit myself to just that one or install the latest development version? I mean they are both beta versions, right? So what's the difference? What are the pro's and con's of just installing 5.0-910 vs that latest one?
Any other advice you can give as to the steps I should take the first time attempting this would be greatly appreciated, and feel free to dumb it down(even to the point of something like "You takes the cap of the bluetooth adapter, you sticks the adapter in the little usb shaped hole...") I don't mind, in fact I think I'd actually prefer it loool...
Ok I'm only joking there, well, half joking...
Point is as I get more experienced using this stuff I'm sure I'll feel more comfortable to start experimenting. But I'm being this anal at the moment because in the beginning, after all the money I've spent getting all the stuff together and all the headaches it's caused, I want it to just work, so I can just sit down, and just play some damn games!
Thank you all sooo very much.
