Mayflash dolphin bar can only connect 2 wiimotes - Danage - 12-11-2014
I have it set to mode 4 but can't seem to get more than 2 wiimotes connected to the mayflash bar at a time.
I've managed to get all 3 wiimotes connected to the mayflash bar, but never more than 2 at the same time.
Help please

Are they all official Nintendo Wiimotes? I just purchased a DB, but only have 2 official wiimotes, so I haven't tested functionality for 4 wiimotes simultaneously.

Are you using the v3 firmware?

Yes, I've got latest firmware update.

That's strange. Are the Wiimotes all the same brand at least? If they're the same brand and you were able to connect 2, then I don't know why you wouldn't be able to connect all 4...if they're the same brand. And what brand are you using, if you don't mind sharing?

Some of them say 2 in 1 motion at the bottom of the wiimote, and others don't even say wii or anything. I also think there is some sort of wiimote conflict between the lot.(12-21-2014, 09:20 PM)Danage Wrote:(12-21-2014, 10:49 AM)sulblazer Wrote: Are they all official Nintendo Wiimotes?

I've managed to now get 3 connected, 2x "2 in 1 motion" + 1x "unamed wiimote" This is acceptable enough for now.
If I do 2x "unamed wiimotes" with 1x "2 in 1 motion" it does not work.
It works for 1x "unamed" + 1x "2 in 1 motion" = 2 connected.
So it would appear that it works best if all are the same brands and models, I don't know why it works like that, I would think the bar should just accept all incoming wiimote bluetooth signals.

As far as I know, Dolphin Bar was designed for genuine Nintendo remotes. Fake/3rd party ones are hit or miss, they may or may not work or cause conflicts, the same if you try to connect the wiimotes directly in Dolphin with a BT dongle...

I see, that's too bad my originals real wiimotes died awhile ago, been buying cheap ones off of ebay.
