Wiimotes and Zidag and Bluetooth, oh my!

I'm really new to dolphin so please keep that in consideration.

-=-

I wanted to play "Sports Resort" but the game requires WiiMotion Plus, which I have built in my remote already (works with other games like Mario Kart and Kirby Epic Yarn). I am currently trying to Bluetooth pass through and my research has come to a few different conclusions...

Zidag is used for USB Bluetooth dongles that you plug into your PC, whereas I am just using the BT feature that came with my PC
I still have no clue what kind of Wiimote I have, with the "-tr" thing. (still really confusing to me)
I don't know whether Zidag is the right program that I should be using, and if I am using it right

I did follow the instructions on the Wiki page (https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?t...Setting_up), but they were kinda confusing as well. I know that my problem is really "loose" compared with other information I could have provided, so if you do need any more info, please ask! THX Tongue

AFAIK zadig should work if you figure out which one it is.

Could you help me pick out which one it is?

Probably Intel wireless bluetooth

umm... so i did it, and now there isn't a Bluetooth option on my PC...

(sorry for wait, distracted with things)

Your Dolphin version doesn't support Bluetooth passthrough, because it's way too old. Not even 5.0 is recent enough - you need a development build. Download the latest development build and make sure to enable "Passthrough a Bluetooth adapter".

okay, this leads me to a few questions...

1. Could you link the best one for me? I don't know how to pick it out...
2. Is my Bluetooth now only for my emu. Wii, to where I can't use it for any other devices?

5.0-2872. Below the stable builds.
2. Correct
