Mac- Wiimote not found by Dolphin

Hey guys,

I can't get Dolphin to recognize the Wiimote.Sad

Details:
2011 Macbook Pro running Lion.
Dolphin 3.0 (newer versions crash when I open a game ISO).
Official nintendo Wiimote.
Not using infrared sensor.
Wiimote IS recognized and connected to Mac when I use Darwin Remote OR Remote Buddy.

I sync the Wiimote to the Mac (no problems, it works fine) and then open Dolphin. When I go to the Wiimote settings in Dolphin, it says "Connected to 0 Wiimotes". When I click "Refresh" it waits a few seconds and then still says "Connected to 0 Wiimotes".

The Wiimote is definitely synced to the Mac as I can control other things, but Dolphin won't recognize it. I can see Dolphin is an amazing emulator and I have managed to load New Super Mario Brothers, but I can't connect the Wiimote Sad

Any ideas? I would really appreciate any help Blush

Thanks so much.Shy

Jon

Sadly they don't work on OSX yet.

You could use something like GlovePIE, if that exists for mac...

Thanks. Actually the Wiimote works on OSX for other things like iTunes etc. but it's just Dolphin isn't recognizing it.

Seems there is no GlovePIE for Mac but there are Darwin Remote and Remote Buddy which both work.

Has anyone managed to get a Wiimote to work on Dolphin with Mac OSX (in particular Lion)?

Thanks everyone Smile

I too am having no luck. BUT I have noticed that I cannot get wiimote controller function with other emulators like SixtyForce as well. Darwiinremote always works fine, but none of these emulators can see it as an available input device.

It seems like there was a change that occurred in 10.6.7 or 8 that began the trouble between Darwiinremote and SixtyForce.

BTW I am also running Lion; 10.7.2.

I gave up and have been using a PS3 Bluetooth controller. It's not ideal but it's good enough for some games like Mario Kart.
