DarWiinRemote v0.3.1 and WiinRemote v2006.12.13b
Okay, we’re making this one a two-for-one package of using your Wiimote on something that’s not a Wii (or a console even). These are the latest updates for the Mac-based DarWiinRemote and the Windows-based WiinRemote, each bringing in new bonus features and functionalities.
Let’s clear Windows first. New to WiinRemote v2006.12.13b is the implementation of the IR sensor in the program. While no further details were released with the program package’s Readme – or the source site itself – we can probably take this to mean that now, not only does the program track the Wiimote’s motion, it will also track position through the Wiimote’s IR sensor. WiinRemote itself remains easy to activate – get the Wiimote Bluetoothed to the PC and run the program, then plug away.
Now for DarWiinRemote. The first big change you’ll notice is Hiroaki splitting off the program into its two components: the DarWiinRemote application-actual and the WiiRemote Framework (not to be confused with the Windows WiinRemote). This is for devs who might want to use the Framework part separately. v0.3.1 corrects a few bugs from the last release, and now adds a battery status function to tell you when it’s time to swap out the batteries.
