Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

ok so, excuse me if im retarded but my laptop has a built in IR sensor. is it me, or should this work with dolphin and if so any reason as to why it isnt? everything else with my wiimote is recognized except the IR input of the pointer. and if it doesnt work with dolphin, is a sensor bar the only way to go? thank you for your time.

The sensor bar provides IR LEDs for the wiimote to look at as a reference point.
It's not used for detecting IR signals like your laptop's IR sensor.

You also need 2 IR reference points.

Only one will not work.
You can use 2 candles (No joke) but you need to be in a dark room

thanks guys. really appreciate the info
