Wiimote Connected, Not Working

Verridith · 01-19-2012, 12:48 PM #1

Just a warning- I don't have any idea about the more technical aspects of Dolphin nor any Windows components (I'm a Mac person, this Windows is new to me lol). Therefore I have no idea about what I'm doing. Big Grin

Anyways, I just bought a Nyko Wand wiimote and nunchuk today. I have the WiiMotionPlus and have had it for a while. My computer recognizes the wiimote and has downloaded the drivers. Dolphin recognizes the wiimote as well. ...Except, it doesn't work. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but whenever I open one of the two games I have (currently Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and now LoZ: Skyward Sword) the wiimote won't work. On Twilight Princess, it'll say it's connected but none of the buttons work. On Skyward Sword it comes up with a Connection-has-been-lost,-please-press-A message. And when I hit A, nothing happens.

Any tips?

Same controller here, same situation. I just don't have Motion Plus so I can't run SS currently. But I get the same results when trying to start SS.

I'll try that, but my computer connects automatically to Bluetooth; I don't use a doggle. So do I just download it and hope it works? =P

Also, good to know I'm not alone. Lol.

Downloaded the Toshiba thing, getting the 'only compatible with Windows stack' error. Downloaded the recompiled Dolphin and tried those steps... still not working. What am I doing wrong?

Just don't use the dolphin connect button in dolphin...

connect your wiimote via the toshiba bluetooth symbol
and just press refesh in dolphin...

Had the same problem. Using BlueSoleil fixed it though.

Don't you have to pay for BlueSoleil?

Had a while where I couldn't do much of anything due to life - back trying now, but still no luck. It's like the wiimote doesn't want to stay connected with the bluetooth. It just keeps shutting off. If I watch both the lights on the wiimote and the bluetooth connect thing (using Toshiba still), it will stay connected for about 6 seconds, and then disappear. The lights will only stay lit for 1 to 2 seconds.

Also, sometimes it only flashes three lights instead of four.

Sigh. I just want to play Skyward Sword, lol. This is irritating to the extreme.
