Connect your WiiMote to Windows XP using the BlueSoleil bluetooth stack
All right I received even more mail saying "my bluetooth software doesn't look like yours" (see this article or this article)... As said before that is possible because there are several bluetooth packages around. Iin this article I'll try to explain how you can connect your WiiRemote to Windows XP while using the BlueSoleil bluetooth stack.
Last month I received a couple of e-mails from readers asking me whether I had a script to hook up their Guitar Hero World Tour Drums (GHWT) to MIDI. Although willing to help, I wasn't able to pull this one of myself as I don't own (such) a drum kit. So I wrote them back that I was willing to help, but that I needed their help as well. Happilly someone called Fonz replied to my request, willing to help me write a script. So I wrote several scripts and Fonz would test the scripts whether they were working or not. This collaboration payed of... Although the scripts are not completely finished (work in progress), the results are MIDI recordable :-))
OK it has been several days since the last update, I know... Behind the scenes I'm working on a PureData script for Linux that triggers MIDI events (similar to the GlovePiescript that I wrote earlier).
Wiinstrument is a small and easy to use program that shows you some posibilities of how you can use your WiiMote to make music in Windows. In this article I'll try to explain how you could easily connect the Wii Remote (and your WiiNunchuck) to this program called Wiinstrument.
