Problems with GlovePIE and connecting Wiimote+Balance Board

[stardyedbox]

Hi,

I am writing a glovePIE script that makes use of a Wiimote as well as a Balance Board. I am able to manually connect both to my bluetooth stack; however, the problem is that when I run my script, only one of them ever works (and this is always the device which I have connected first). The device which is connected second never works--I seem to be able to get a bluetooth connection, but GlovePIE is not able to recognize it.

In my code, I use wiimote1 for all my wiimote controls, and wiimote2.balanceboard for my board controls. Thus I always try to connect my wiimote before my balanceboard as I have heard that the devices will be enumerated in the order that you connect them.

I always connect my devices by first 1) opening glovePIE 2) using BlueSoleil to manually connect the HIDs.

Please, can anyone help me? Thanks!

Hi everyone, it's me again; sorry to spam. I thought i'd provide some code examples. can anyone help me out with this?

I wrote my script on glovePIE 0.43 for a FPS-type game. My script uses the Wiimote for camera angles (emulating the mouse) and the Balance Board (emulating the keyboard) for movement.

however, whenever I connect my Wiimote, and thereafter my Balance Board, the Balance Board always seems to "switch off" within 2 seconds. Hence, the Wiimote controls work just fine but the Balance Board doesn't seem to be detected at all.

Here is a representative example of my script using lednerg's motion plus air mouse script combined with a balance board control.

In addition, I get the error message

internal Access violation at address 005A725F in module "GlovePIE.exe". Read of address 00000000.

when running the code on line 13 (

Code: [Select]

if Wiimote1.HasBalanceBoard). What does this mean? the glovePIE editor always seems to highlight any instance of WiimoteX.HasBalanceBoard.

Please, it would be great if anyone had any helpful suggestions for this. Thank you!!
