Great Plug in!! I just started using it and have noticed a few things that you may already know.
I am using A7 v7.5 Commercial. I have gotten the version from the previous post to work great with my Toshiba Bluetooth stack, including separately connecting more than one remote. I have also started to implement this dll into my menu code. Although the wiimote_getdevices(); function does not seem to be returning the correct value. I have also created my own debug panel, so I do not use ackwii.c.
However, when I try to run the version in the latest post, I get no data. When I copy the dll into my project folder, it doesn't read any data from the wiimote. If I recopy the previous version, it works fine. I don't see any major changes to the lite-C files so I am unsure as to the cause. Since I can copy the two dll's into my project folder and one works and the other doesn't, then I don't think it is my code.
I'd love to help you test this out since I am hoping to use it within this new project as the major input device. I have built a USB IR 'Sensor Bar' to fit the front of my notebook. This is one of the best contributions I have seen to 3DGS, and I hope that you continue to develop it.
Here's how I'm using it...I do call wiimote_disconnect(WiiHandle[x]); when I close the program.
