wjoy support for accelerometer data? #6

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
After lots of fiddling, it dawned on me that wjoy might not support 
accelerometer data from the wiimotes. I can receive button pushes just fine, 
but what I really need is the motion. Is that possible?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest version, 0.6, on Mac OSX 10.8.2

Yes, it's possible :) I plan it to 0.8 verstion (may be :) ). Internally WJoy 
support all wiimote sensors (accelerometers, cameras, it can play sound 
throught wiimote speaker :) ).

Great news! I was looking for a way to change the default mode the wiimote 
sends out data, but I'm not nearly experienced enough to figure that out. 
Thanks for your great work on this, and looking forward to version 0.8. Let me 
know if I can help test or something. :)

Any headway on this? You make a comment that motionplus is supported in 
wiimote.framework...could I somehow use wiimote.framework along with 
controllermate in os X?  Great work, by the way, your driver is a savior!

Sorry, no :( Accelerometer works fine (and motion plus too), but 
Wiimote.framework - simple library (writed on Objective-C), what do all works 
in WJoy about interacting with Wiimote/Wii U Pro Controller.

Framework can be used in third-party applications (interface of 
Wiimote.framework is very simplest, i think), but for it developer need to do 
some work.

And yes, i think, what Wiimote.framework can be used with ControllerMate, but 
for it we need write some plugin/hack (ControllerMate dosn't support plugins :( 
). Sorry.

Do you have any sample code for getting accelerometer data out of the Wiimote? 
The test app only seems to track button presses (I'm Obj-C literate, so all I 
need are a few pointers).

Yes, test.app doesn't handle accelerometer. Example of accelerometer use in 
svn: trunk/examples/WATest (with latest binary of Wiimote.framework).

Thanks, I'll check that out.

And... I didn't test accelerometer too deep, if you find any bug - write to me, 
i'll fix it :)

Well, first I need to try to get this to work with Unity, which might be 
tricky...

Good luck! But one note: wiimote.framework is not thread-safe, it can be used 
only from one thread (and, may be, only from main thread).
