I'm going to try this on an older G4 iMac, but I hear that the G4 version of OSX Tiger has bluetooth problems, like pairing is problematic the second time or something. I'll let you know how it works out.
Note for Mac OS X PowerPC (PPC) users: you will have to delete the Wii Remote from your previous devices list in System Preferences->Bluetooth->Devices after each connection (every time you connect a given Wii Remote). Even then, the outgoing connection will still fail every other time. There is some sort of bug relating to HCI devices and Apple's library. Luckily, it was fixed for the Intel Macs.
Note that both were running latest 10.4, and I used a Kensington BT stick, the same one in both machines. I don't know if that matters.
Hii just played around with this on my MBP. Unfortunately the sensing range is very limited (reliably working when wiimote is within 10 CM from the IR source). I wonder why this is so? My IR pen was working well under the windows version (johnny lee'sWiimote Multipoint Grid programme) at which time my wiimote was placed several meters away.
I could not get it to compile via xcode (3 errors were produced using Xcode Version 2.4.1), however I did run the .jar from both command line and finder and did not notice a difference. Let me know if i can help in any way. I would love to see this working well.
Thanks anyway to the dev(s ?). Keep up the good work.
It would be great if someone could make an (Mac OS X) icon for the program...
I read this post and decided to give it a shot. I'm not by any means an artist, and I didn't really spend too much time on this, but it's probably better than nothing.
