I’m really cranking out the releases these days. Today I have released WiimoteLib v1.5 at CodePlex . The big news is that the Wii Fit Balance Board is now supported. The balance board is simply a very heavy piece of plastic with 4 weight sensors located at the corners. The library...
In an effort to put out more frequent builds with fewer changes, I’ve released WiimoteLib v1.4 to CodePlex . This release contains the single most requested feature: multiple Wiimote support. I’m very interested to hear bug reports and suggestions on this release, so please do let me...
