BAAAAH BLOOTOOTH

[Jinjo402]

Welp, waiting for my Bluetooth Adaptor to arrive by Amazon. Gonna do this with my Classic Controller Pro and play some SNES games.

[gogeeks]

@Jinjo402 That's awesome! If you decide to make a youtube video demonstrating that, feel free to add it as a video response!

@krazykhrisya LOL Nice!

[mariosunshinefaan]

You see, if a puppy dies each time a person is not subscribing to you, you really gotta stop making videos :P

[gogeeks]

@mariosunshinefaan LOL... Yeah over 44,000 have died! People must really hate puppies...

[zakkwyldesociety]

For people encountering problems:

If your wii remote's lights turn off when you're not on the GUI tab in glovepie, don't worry, it's still connected. When you run the script the lights will stay on.

Also, I'd highly recommend installing and running PPJoy if you are encountering any other similar issues or can't get past the last steps.

[scatman891]

Many bugs but thanks to this i got the blue screen of death ):

[TTGWindows7]

a gooie...? A GOOIE?! AND YOU CALL YOURSELF A FUCKING NERD?! ITS GUI YOU FUCK!

[gogeeks]

@TTGWindows7 Wow, you're really upset about this!

Btw, just for the heads up, both pronunciations are actively used today, gooie, is actually the pronunciation originally assigned to the acronym GUI, you'll notice this in early interviews with Steve Jobs, bill gates and Xerox (Xerox was the first to introduce the graphical user interface in their palo alto research center).Today, GUI is pronounced: "Gooie" as a quick slang term and is spelled out by others.

[kentuckyfriedponies]

@kentuckyfriedponies yeah, i cut at my wrists that night :(

ok everytime i use glove pie, and hit the button i want on my wiimote, it just stops, im using an internal bluetooth, on windows 7, help please?

[MegaTurtlee]

A lot of puppies died....

[Lecrie]

I'd love to know how to set up the analog sticks for MGS2 on the PC. I want to have them work like they do on the PS2's Dualshock so I could walk and stuff... although I'd have to go without R3 and L3 :p

[THATSABINGO1]

@gogeeks i'm using win7 64bit and an external bluetooth adaptor. it may not be compatible but its picking it up and i can get it connected with player one's light steady. its just glovepie keeps crashing when i try the gui. it gets slightly further with compatibility mode on for all the older OS but it still eventually crashes. thanks for your help

[THATSABINGO1]

I'm using windows 7, I can get everything connected properly but I cant map the buttons because it keeps crashing. Does anybody know how to use this in windows 7? I've tried compatibility modes.

[gogeeks]

@THATSABINGO1 Does glovepie keep crashing for you?

Oh and are you 32bit or 64bit Windows 7?

internal or external bluetooth? (if external, let me know which one)

Let me know the specifics and I'll test it out on your version and find you a solution.

[designRpt]

THANK U SO MUCH i LOVE ITTTTTT ur awesome :D

[gogeeks]

@designRpt Thanks \m/ if you make any super awesome scripts (like I remember this one guy set it up so that the nunchuck was rubber banded to his foot and worked as acceleration in mario kart, wiimote was obviously used for steering) make a video response :D

[designRpt]

@gogeeks no i just use it normal way to play gameboy advance on my pc and its amazing, been playing a lot of games with it now (gba games), made some videos of me playing with it on my channel even if i dont show in the videos lol

[PotatoVegan]

@NejiHyuga900 did u say win 7 laptop?the blue tooth is probably internal, cuz most modern laptops have that.

[GunzandposeS]

Why does my wiimote keep shutting down in like 30 seconds?



[gogeeks]

@GunzandposeS It's likely because it didn't pair properly to your computer.

[danitabori]

@gogeeks i have the same problem.i connect my wiimote to the computer,but after some time the wiimote shuts down and it dissapeares from the bluetooth devices.

i have windows 7 64 bit,internal bluetooth.

i would love to play emulator games,like you did in the beginning of the video.please help,if you can.

[StakerEatsPie]

use less -.-

[MrHades504]

I can't find my Bluetooth places

[cheatdude78]

like it doesnt want to recognize the joysticks on the classic

[gogeeks]

@cheatdude78 Yeah you'll have to manually script that, however if you're going to be using analogue sticks where you want the amount to vary depending on distance, you can't measure that with a keyboard key, so I would recommend downloading "PPJoy" that is a virtual gamepad for your computer, just create a device with two analogue sticks, then script in glove pie to those sticks, then you can have a proper percent working.

If you want me to go into more detail let me know :)

[cheatdude78]

how do use the classic controller it doesnt want to register it

[danny99000l]

is there a way to use your mouse as a nunchuck on the emulator

 i got that emulator because i dont have a wii so pls reply

[TheBreakingMPLS]

get a new computer...yo *puts on cool face*

[WhiteWolf1145]

glove pie crashes when i try to configure device System spec

Windows 7 home premium x64

cpu = intel i5 760

4 gb ram

graphics card = overclocked Radeon HD5770

[Gwells12]

@WhiteWolf1145 overclocking graphics card can lead to unstability, try putting it back to factory clock speeds. if it doesnt work, overclock it back to how it was.

[WhiteWolf1145]

@Gwells12 its factory overclocked

[Gwells12]

@WhiteWolf1145 okay, have you tried running the program in compatibility mode?? right-click the .exe (the icon you click on to load up the program) and choose properties. from there click on the compatibility tab. once you've done that, tick the box that lets you to run the program in compatibility mode and select an option to run it in e.g. Windows XP SP3. I hope this helps.

[Macazl]

We have the same bluetooth lol

[yoshiartfan123]

Subscribed, epic video.

[gogeeks]

@yoshiartfan123 Thanks! Lately I haven't been making videos but they should be coming back up regularly starting next week! :D

[Yoseph21]

Awesome, I have watched a couple of your videos and i really like what you do so thank you! (I subscribed) Anyway, i had a question. Since this seems to me like you can program the response of any bluetooth device using GlovePie. Does this mean you could configure your cell phone as a controller for things like super meat boy and SNes Emulators like megaman?

[gogeeks]

@Yoseph21 Hey thanks! I'm glad to see that you enjoy my stuff, means a lot!

In theory, you could use any bluetooth device as long as the device can send a signal. However keep in mind that GlovePie is not designed to handle all devices by default so it may require more advanced techniques to get other devices working (luckily GlovePie is open source :D).

[Dmt4030]

This is Fucking Useless no help at all

[gogeeks]

@Dmt4030 I'm sorry you feel that way, most people here on the other hand find it incredibly easy to follow. Unlike most broadcasters though I listen to my entire audience, what would you like me to elaborate on for future reference?

[Dmt4030]

@gogeeks First of all let me apologize by saying sorry, and i was upset by not trying to figure it out on my own it's not your fault, u were trying to help and think u for helping.

[NejiHyuga900]

Let's see if I have the requirements to use a Wiimote on my Windows 7 laptop.

- PC (Check!!!)

- Wiimote (Check!!!)

- Bluetooth USB Adapter (. . . I DON'T HAVE THAT!!! :( )

[gogeeks]

@NejiHyuga900 hahah ouch! Well if you have built in bluetooth on your laptop, that should do the job as well. If not, I put up a recommended bluetooth adapter in the description :)

i know that i need a sensor bar but i never can do that cus i already mounted my bar to the TV and my dad says if i put it off it never goes on again

[MegaFilip00]

@Ealija u don't need a sensorbar!

[DonovanHillery]

Ok I REALLY need help with this. When I try doing the button scripts they just don't work for some reason. Only the rumble works.. but when I do key.a = wiimote.a it just doesn't work. I even tried doing a = wiimote.a or wiimote1.a and it just won't work for some reason... Can someone please help? only the rumble works and I am so anxious to play games with my classic controller or wiimote. thanks

[DonovanHillery]

@DonovanHillery what I mean is that my wiimote button presses just don't work on glovepie. they keyboard presses work fine though. ps. im using windows 7

[cycrosism]

My laptop asks me for a pin when pairing, and I cant skip this step like it is recommened on other websites, what do I do

[gogeeks]

@cycrosism ah well i see you tried the @jfeltes method and it didn't work. Well it's likely that it's either your actually bluetooth adapter (unlikely) or the stack that you're using with your bluetooth adapter. So try installing a different stack (click the link in the description it should have a link in there to tell you which bluetooth stacks are good to use).

If you believe it is the bluetooth adapter, I have an amazon link in the description to a cheap usb one.

[cycrosism]

@gogeeks I installed Windows 7 and now I can skip the pin part but when it pairs the 4 leds on the wiimote are still flashing and it doesn't work

[Firetriedby]

@cycrosism I don;'t really know what I am doing. But when working with blutooth devices, sometimes the pin is 0000

[Aaronjc7]

@cycrosism hit ALT+S at that screen to skip it

[newton3010]

[95004965641991]

hey i need to download with emulator support ??? or without ??

[gogeeks]

@95004965641991 Nope, just get the download link in the show notes. It should work with any emulator which allows you to assign keys.

[jfeltes]

Somebody help me. My bluetooth device wants a passkey.. It says it needs it. It's pissing me off

[gogeeks]

@jfeltes You are probably running a newer version of the bluetooth stack that I'm using (i had that error as well in the past). Just uninstall your currently bluetooth stack then install a pervious version.

For more details check out the link in the show notes. Subscribe to support :)

[jfeltes]

@gogeeks

I went online and read some forum.

The fix is to hit ctrl+s and that just skips the screen.  It's such a facepalm to the face that I felt stupid.

[gogeeks]

@jfeltes wow really? WOW....

[jfeltes]

@gogeeks

Sorry it's Alt plus S not Ctrl + S just wanted to clarify

[cycrosism]

@jfeltes didnt work

Thank you very much, I am sure everyone appreciates it. I have a question though, can you actually point and move the cursor with the wiimote, and does it support the nunchuck?

@sacredshinobi yeah you need to have the sensor bar if you want to do a point at the screen (just need to download a script for that, check the show notes link for that).

nun chuck also works :)

[ryanakahi007]

do u have to set the buttons with glovepie before using an emulator

[gogeeks]

@ryanakahi007 You don't need to but I recommend it, because most people mixup keys if they don't.

[disbuylshite]

I was wondering if I didn't want to use the WiiMote to control the pointer onscreen if I could just simply use to a normal wireless mouse without any hassle. Kind of like how you can use a USB Keyboard/mouse and still use the normal keyboard/mouse on a laptop.

[disbuylshite]

@disbuylshite Kind of like a dual connection thing.

[gogeeks]

@disbuylshite You don't need to use the wiimote as the pointer, on this tutorial for example it's not being used as a mouse and a normal wireless mouse is Indeed being used.

[BlazeReap2]

If I use my Wiimote on my computer, but I have to re-sync it to my Wii when I'm done?

[gogeeks]

@BlazeReap2 You would have to, but luckily it doesn't take long re-syncing it and it's well worth the extra 30 seconds. Playing games with the wiimote is SO much better then playing games with a keyboard (well for some games).

is it possible to make a sesore bar so u can aim in the screen for the mouse?

[gogeeks]

Yes it's definitely possible and it is incredibly easy :)

Do you want me to make a video on how to make one? If you think that's be a good idea I can def. make one on camera (I can make two, one that will work just like the regular wiimote sensor bar, and one that will work similarly but it works much closer to the screen so you can sit in a computer chair)

If this is something you'd be interested in I can def. slap a video of that together for you really quickly.

[MrSuperbing]

if u would do that id be so happy it wold be like playing halo on a wii!!!
