How To Configure Touchmote Software For MAME

[@ArtificialFear]

Howdy! I just wanted to say thanks for this video. I knew about Touchmote, but I couldn't get it going for anything! This was very helpful. Cheers!

Get a Dolphin Wii Bar and run the wiimotes this way.

[@eduardoherrera1974]

Thank you very very very much. I was able to play " The House of the Dead 2" for pc with my wiimote as a light gun. You just saved me at least $300 I have a Frankenstein set up but it works beautifully.

[@OldsXCool]

There's absolutely nothing wrong with a Frankenstein setup. That's pretty much the only way I roll.

[@Eurocar-yz4kv]

Wow big big thanks to you for doing this... I finally got it to work:) works great the only flaw im noticing is when i play area 51 the shoot of the screen reload takes a while to reload... Everything else works great... Thanks again i much appreciate you!

You're very welcome. I'm always happy to help :)

[@Omn1Slash]

Thank you so much! I fought with this for hours and watched your video and figured it out. Touchmote saved the day on this one. Gonna try and setup 2 wii remotes for dual guns!

[@georgeherman856]

I just watched your video and got everything working. Thanks for the video it helped a lot. I have one issue, if you can imagine a big plus sign on the screen...everytime my crosshairs get to that invisible plus sign the crosshairs stop even if I keep moving the gun, up or down. Then once I keep moving the gun enough the crosshair catches up. Do you know why that would happen. It happens in other games as well. Thanks

[@papas7104]

Thanks a lot for your guide.

[@karlmee1234]

Legend, thanks for the help mate. One question though, my cross hairs seem a little jumpy, does changing the deadzone in MAME fix that and does that affect my arcade cabs sticks if I mess with the deadzone?

My crosshair on Area 51 ( haven’t tried other games) is stuck in a cross motion. Like if I try hard enough I can get it moving freely but then it gets stuck in a up and down and left in right straight motion

[@pattonthompson4781]

Awesome video. I am stillHaving trouble. Could you share what version of MAME you are using and your mame.ini file? Would be much appreciated.

[@OldsXCool]

I'm using version 0.182 in this video I think. What are you having trouble with?

[@khmerdogg71]

I follow the step and it worked fine, but the sensor and crosshair are way off. I'm pointing in the center of the tv but the crosshair is about 5 in below that. any way to correct the aiming?

[@aceuno]

I just got a DolphinBar and the native mouse support shakes like hell, so I've been looking for a workaround. Your Touchmote method seems to work a lot better, Touchmode takes care of the shakyness, but I've encountered a new problem... the cursor tends to get stuck or stopped at the center axis of the screen in most games. Does this have to do with the "auto-center" function that MAME does when using analogues as lightgun? Is there a way around it?

[@OldsXCool]

Yes, I know exactly what you need to do. You need to go into the MAME.ini file and adjust the "joystick deadzone" to 0. I think it's defaulted to 0.3. That will fix your problem.

[@aceuno]

That worked perfectly, thank you so much! This singlehandedly turned my DolphinBar into something actually usable, I'm very very grateful! The only detail that's bothering me now is that offscreen reload doesn't work all that well for me on games that use it. Area 51 only registers my offscreen shot if I move rather slowly towards the edges (if I move to fast offscreen, the cursor stays behind). Any advice for that?

[@aceuno]

I realize there is a "offscreen_lightgun" property in the mame.ini, which should let you map an offscreen shot to a button, but I haven't been able to map it. Seems to be strictly reserved for devices that MAME recognizes as real lightguns, for some reason.

[@OldsXCool]

VD2021 Sorry it took so long for me to respond. I have switched to a newer computer and had to set it up in order to confirm some things. In order to use more than one Wiimote all you have to do is sync up a second Wiimote with the software. You have to sync them up at the same time though. You can't simply add a Wiimote when you hit "pair" because it disconnects all current connections with any Wiimote you had previously paired. So select pair and pair them both when the software is scanning for Wiimotes. You don't have to do anything other than that because MAME will see each Wiimote as different controllers. As for having to sync them up every time, you should not have to do that unless you've unpaired them by pairing the Wiimotes with something else like Wii console or if you've rebooted the computer. My. Computer runs 24/7 so I never have to pair my Wiimote again unless I did one of the above mentioned things. Even if you close the Touchmote software you don't have to pair the Wiimote again. Just simply open the software and then hit a button on the Wiimote and it will connect automatically. Another thing is that you can leave the software open and the Wiimotes will stay connected and go into a sleep mode if not used after so long, but this sleep mode will still kill your batteries so I don't recommend it. I don't know anything when it comes to the Dolphin Bar because I don't have one. I'm using a cheap Bluetooth dongle and my actual Wii sensor bar. I know that the Dolphin Bar has 4 different modes and you need to have it set to the correct one, but I don't know what that is. If you need more illustration after this post I'll try to get around to making a video showing my setup, but my time is limited when it comes to making videos.

[@Vidal2021]

Thanks. I had ordered some new Bluetooth dongles. The new dongles came with the blusolei and I can sync two wiimotes without issue. I have a 4-player arcade cab that I use with a jvc crt I purchased back in 2003. I also added a setup to my HTPC which uses a 55" Samsung or Acer projector. Here's my latest, as I try to get both arcades working with the wiimotes. I am using the dongles and not the dolhpinbar. The crt setup is more accurate relative to the onscreen cross-hairs. The setup on the Samsung is off. the shot lands to the left of the cross-hairs. In touchmote sw pointer settings, the sensor bar potion does not do anything. The aim is only accurate if I place the sensor bar at the center of the crt. With it on top, the cross -hairs are below the aiming point and with the sensor bar below the cross-hairs are above the aining point . I have three different, battery operated, independent of wii sensor bars. All of them give the same results. Have I missed something? I noticed that the touchmote sw pointer settings, on the crt, doesn not give a "monitor selection" in the drop down. Its blank. On my Samsung it's there and selectable.

[@OldsXCool]

There is absolutely no way in the Touchmote software to adjust the pointer position in MAME. This is because in MAME you are not using a real pointing device such as a mouse, but instead using joystick input so the cross-hairs in MAME will always be at the center of the screen when pointing directly at the sensor bar. The only way to remedy this as you have found is to place the sensor bar in the center of the screen which is actually doable on a projector setup and not so with a direct view CRT or LCD screen. Not even the sensor bar position adjustment does anything for MAME lightgun games. The sensor bar position only makes a difference for the mouse and touch modes. If you want arcade type precision you'll need something like an Aimtrak gun that works exactly like the Wiimotes but has software to be able to calibrate the aim outside of MAME. I'm not sure what the reason is for the shots landing to the left in your projector setup. It could be the distance in which you're away from your screen in each respective setup. You can try adjusting the analog joystick sensitivity in in the ini file to see if that helps. One thing to consider is that other light sources can be interfering when ever you have inaccurate aiming with a Wiimote. I've found the morning sunlight from my windows in the basement to be a huge problem and that is with the blinds closed. Even the overhead lights in my room cause issues. As for the Touchmote software not seeing your CRT, if you're using an s-video or composite output it won't see it. If you're using a computer monitor hooked up VGA theirs a chance that it still can't see it. Whenever using DVI or HDMI you should always see it.

[@Vidal2021]

Thanks. The CRT is using the S-video input. I may try to add some tilt, to the wiimote, relative to the wiimote gun holder. If I played by only looking at the cross-hairs it wouldn't be an issue, but I actually look over the sights, to aim, and its takes away from the experience having the cross-hairs separated from the sight's aim.

[@Vidal2021]

Thanks for the great instruction. Hoping you can help me with an issue. My pointer pauses or gets stuck at the dead center when I cross the center line. It doesn't matter if it is high, low or somewhere in between. It still gets stuck for a moment. Is there a fix?

[@OldsXCool]

Yes there is a fix for that. Go into your MAME.ini file, scroll down to where it says "joysick_deadzone" and change the value to 0.

[@05SVRACER]

Hey Oldsxcool, Do you know if this works with windows 10?

[@gamedude6322]

Does it have to be a wiimote made before 2011? I don't have any more made before 2011

[@OldsXCool]

Those were the guidelines for Touchmote when I made this video. I could have sworn I saw a comment that later Wiimotes worked fine. You can always try it because the software is free.

[@fielrg01]

What version of mame are you using? Touchmote is working, but whenever I'm in mame and push a button on the wiimote it turns off. What can I do to fix this? I'm using Mame .208.

[@OldsXCool]

What turns off? The Wiimote?

[@fielrg01]

@@OldsXCool Yeah my wiimote completely shuts off and disconnects from the pc. I've tried a wiimote with motionplus and it stays on, but I'm not able to configure any buttons.

[@OldsXCool]

It sounds like you may have a conflict of some kind. That sounds like what happened to me when I was trying to use Dolphin with Touchmote open. Dolphin does its own syncing and Touchmote was fighting for connectivity. You need to check all of your connected Bluetooth devices and make sure that there are no doubles and no other program trying to take control of the Wiimote. MAME itself does not control any of the Bluetooth devices. You also may want to shut off any other Bluetooth controllers if you have multiples just to eliminate them as being a problem.

[@TaylorMade085]

I followed your instructions and everything works as intended until I attempt to remap a control in Mame. It won't register the Wiimote's buttons of directions when I try to remap controls. Are there any other steps involved? Thanks!

[@ArtificialFear]

I was having the same problem. Apparently, I had downloaded the Windows 8 version of Touchmote (I'm running Windows 7.) I uninstalled the wrong version of Touchmote, downloaded the Windows 7 version, and then it worked like a charm. Give it a shot, and see if that works for you!

[@TaylorMade085]

Thanks for the tip. I'm running Windows 10. Not sure if that's an issue or not. I don't see a Win 10 version (using Win 8 version). Curious if anyone else has been successful with this in Win 10. Thanks again for the response.

Hi Mate, I followed your tutorial and got almost everything working. The shooting button works but I can't set X and Y axis with swiping my controller (gun). I use a dolphin bar in mode 4. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

[@OldsXCool]

I don't have a Dolphin bar, but I've looked up the modes and mode 4 is for using a Wiimote with the Dolphin emulator. From what it looks like you want mode 3 where it emulates a gamepad. Try mode 3.

[@pattonthompson4781]

Im using MAME .174. I followed the instructions precisely. It works but the cursor jumps all over the place. Is there some setting or calibration I am missing? I dont think light interference is an issue, on the appropriate dolphin bar setting the mouse motion is smooth in windows.

[@OldsXCool]

Patton Thompson Sorry I just looked at the video and it says that I'm actually using MAME 0.171. That doesn't matter though because this should work on either version. I think I've seen someone else make a comment here on the same thing and they were using the Dolphin Bar just like you. I'm not sure which one of the settings on the Dolphin Bar is best to use with Touchmote. You may have conflicting inputs between Touchmote and the Dolphin Bar causing the irattic behavior. That's all I can really think of.

[@ozltorres]

Whats up! Dude!... Nice Tuto, very well explained and it worked for me.... NOW i Have a question, HAVE YOU TRIED TO PLAY WITH 2 PLAYERS (2 WIIMOTES) ? In case yes, could you explain what is the settings that you used in TouchMode please.

[@OldsXCool]

ozltorres Yes. And it's super simple. All you have to do is sync up another Wiimote to the Touchmote software. Then when you go into MAME just use the second Wiimote to program the controls for player 2.

[@ozltorres]

OldsXCool i tried to do that but first of all i dont know which key configuration use in TouchMote for the player 2... should i use the same key condig as the player 1? because when i will chech the input options in touchmote just appears one xbox control. is it normal or should appear 2 of them (one for player one and one for player 2)?

[@OldsXCool]

ozltorres Yes that is normal for there to appear 2 Xbox controllers because the Touchmote software is emulating two of them when you sync up 2 Wiimotes. You don't need to change anything in Touchmote at all. Just sync up both Wiimotes and program your controls for each in MAME.

[@ozltorres]

Ok, thanks dude! I have to check why in my TouchMote just Appear ONE xbox controller, not 2 as you said. Regards

Then when I move the cursor back down and hit the center area of the screen, the cursor then again pauses or locks at the half way point of the screen before it lets me go down. thoughts?

[@fraserkinloch3765]

Did I miss something or how do you actually hook up a sensor bar to the pc?

[@OldsXCool]

You don't hook the sensor bar up to the PC. The sensor bar is nothing but an array of infrared LED lights. There are no actual sensors in it as the name might suggest. I am using my Wii sensor bar which is hooked up to my Wii. When I want to use it for my PC I just simply power on the Wii to turn the sensor bar on. If you don't have a Wii there are sensor bars that are powered via batteries or even USB. If you have a Mayflash Dolphin Bar, that is a different story, but the Dolphin Bar does way more than just emit infrared light and needs to be hooked up to the PC via USB.

[@fraserkinloch3765]

OldsXCool Is that just to keep a connection between the sensor bar and wii remote? I have a sensor bar powered separate from my old wii, was wondering if I could use that?

[@OldsXCool]

On a actual Wii sensor bar there is absolutely no connection between it and the Wiimote. The sensor bar's job is just to shoot light, nothing more. If you have a third party sensor bar that's powered separately from the Wii, that will work. The infrared camera in the Wiimote tracks the light emitted from the sensor bar to give it it's relative position. That's why the Wii as well as the Touchmote software has to know whether your sensor bar is on the top or bottom of the screen.

[@fraserkinloch3765]

hey yo that tutorial was legit, you also show model 2 input, can you explain how you set that up. I put it on mouse and it plays but when I set raw input on to use 2 wii motes nothing registers. it only works with raw input 0 but when I go full screen the mouse is still clicking things in the background and messing up the game. please help. also what about model 3 and naiomi, if you can?

[@OldsXCool]

As far as I know you cannot use two Wiimotes on Model 2 because your computer would have to have software which gives it the ability to have two independent mouse inputs. However there is a software that I haven't played around with yet that actually lets you do this and it's free. It's called Troubleshooter 2. Here is a video demonstrating this along with the link to where you can download the software. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIrEi3Strpaagpo The cause for your problems with the mouse seemingly clicking things in the background is actually because the model 2 emulator's fullscreen is actually just a full size window with a mask that covers the borders of the window so you can't see them. If you pull the trigger too close to the outside of the screen you are actually grabbing the invisible border which causes huge problems. You fix this problem by running a program called "borderless window" that actually makes the borders disappear and inactive. What I do is program a hotkey on my keyboard to activate borderless window. When I start up the Model 2 emulator I hit the hotkey which makes the window the size of my screen, then hit it again to make the borders disappear. I then tell the emulator to go fullscreen. BAM! No more problems. About Model 3 emulation, unlike the Model 2 emulator the Model 3 emulator is all command line with no user interface. If you're at all familiar with DOS commands they won't seem so foreign to you, but there are instructions on how to install and use it here: www.supermodel3.com/Help.html When you download the Model 3 emulator make sure that you download one of the later unofficial releases also known as rSVN. The last official release is very hard to run at full speed. I use two versions currently. I use rSVN 274 for Dayton USA 2 and Scud Race. I use rSVN 460 for L.A. Machineguns. I use two different ones because the music sounds like it's a MP3 playing back at 96kbs on anything higher than 274. However in higher releases more textures to more cars have been added. The music is so good in Daytona 2 that I would rather have sound quality over some car missing their textures. However that was quite a while ago since I've played around with the Model 3 emulator. It looks like the latest release is rSVN 598. So playing around with different versions for different games will serve you better in the end. The Model 3 emulator takes a much more powerful CPU to run at full speed than the Model 2 emulator. My AMD Athlon II X2 240 was not up to the task though it almost ran it at full speed. My Intel Core i3 2120 was able to run the emulator with ease. When it comes to Naomi I know nothing. Most games that I like from the Naomi arcades I like have already been ported to other platforms.

Go into your MAME.ini file, scroll down to where it says "joysick_deadzone" and change the value to 0. That will get rid of the deadzone in the middle of the screen.

How do you set up player 2, same way?

The only thing I can think of is that you need to reprogram the lightgun movements. If you don't move your hand really straight while moving it up/down or left/right then it could record a diagnal movement.

All you have to do is highlight the setting and hit delete. Do not hit enter after you highlight the setting and then hit delete because then you will program that setting to be the delete button.

[@AulesHammer]

@@OldsXCool okay that definitely helped a lot. Thank you very much. Now Is there anyway to adjust sensitivity and to fix the controller being off center?

[@OldsXCool]

@@AulesHammer As fat as sensitivity is concerned you can adjust "joystick_saturation" in the MAME ini. It's normally set to 0.85 by default. I have mine set to 0.65 to slow the cursor down a little bit. I assume when you refer to the controller being off center that you mean that in the vertical direction. Unfortunately the only way to get the cursor perfectly center in the Y axis is to have your sensor bar in the middle of the screen. Aimtrak guns have special software to adjust for things like this but Touchmote does not. So turning the cursor off and aiming down the site of your gun shell for your Wiimote will not work.

Actually that's the game saying "OOPS"

@@OldsXCool I thought it was your doggo lol

[@dmcalonan1359]

you didnt mention what you have your mame default set at for lightgun, etc. for wxample MameUI, default controller for each input set as mouse by default. I didnt use touch remote at all, I set dolphin bar on mode 1, set mame to use mouse for lightgun games and it works without doing any of this. the mouse is to fast though so you slow it down. thats it.

[@OldsXCool]

That doesn't work if you want a second lightgun as your computer recognizes only one mouse input. You would need 2 completely independent mice which Windows does not nativlely support. I still don't have a Dolphin bar because I've never really needed one, but the method that I show here might work without the Touchmote software using mode 3 on the Dolphin bar. That's just speculation though.

[@yogurtstand1776]

So I accidentally Disabled The pointer and now I can't slide the left xbox360 configuration input into the program. Can someone plz help me.

[@fg1998]

Sadly but does not work for me on 0.179 - I dont get 'Joy 1 x rotation' but 'Joy 1 RSI' and never work.

[@J-shelby]

hi, thanks for the tutorial, i can pair the wiimote on pc , but i can move the pointer of the led tv but when i enter mameui64 or regular mame in input for this machine do not recognize the control , can you help me? and when i enter in touchmote in config say in monitor that requieres drivers and is a tv led samsung plug with pc by hdmi, what can i do? thanks a lot

[@OldsXCool]

juan carlos corlet If you can move the mouse cursor before you enter MAME then you're doing it wrong.

[@J-shelby]

Hi again, i can move the Wiimote on desktop of Windows, and when i run mame can move it to, but do not respond when i put input (this machine). What i do wrong ? Thanks a lot

[@OldsXCool]

juan carlos corlet What you're doing wrong is using the mouse profile in Touchmote. Mouse emulation does not work in MAME. The whole reason why I made this video is to show you how Touchmote is supposed to be set up.

[@J-shelby]

But the touchmote do not recognice mi TV LED, Say that drivers requiere. And inside touchmote i have to put set x360 ? But i put with that layout and not work. When i pair the Wiimote with touchmote i can move like a mouse, i do not know What i am doing wrong. Sorry bother you and thanks a lot for your help.

[@dandyinn4326]

hi thanks for the great tutorial. i am having cursor issues, however i cant find any mame.ini file anywhere so i can change the joystick deadzone value, i am using mame 0.139 - any ideas? thanks in advance :)

[@OldsXCool]

Thank you for watching :) The ini file does not already exist in the downloaded package. It must be created. The easiest way would be to move your MAME folder to the root of your C drive so the path to your MAME folder will be simply C:\MAME or whatever you named it. Next open a command prompt by clicking on "run" and type "cmd". Type cd\ to clear the current directory. Then type cd MAME (or whatever your MAME folder is called) and press enter. Now type mame.exe -cc You will then be able to go into your MAME folder and find a newly created ini file. Open it and find the joystick deadzone and set it to 0. Go to file and hit save before opening MAME to make sure the setting sticks.

[@dandyinn4326]

thanks champ!

[@KRIS__B]

Hello plis tell me how to config or force 2 wiimote in mame model 2 etc i got dolphin sensor bar and bluetooth 4,0, i can't force emu 2 and more wiimote in any way

[@OldsXCool]

You don't need to force anything. Sync 2 Wiimotes with Touchmote and they will automatically be assigned player 1 and player 2 and MAME will recognize them as such. As for Model 2 you cannot have 2 Wiimotes as I used the mouse profile on Model 2, and you can't have more than one mouse unless you have special software to be able to do so.

[@KRIS__B]

@@OldsXCool Thank you for the quick reply, I didn't need to buy bluetooth, it may be useful for PS3, PS4: gamepads :P I just found a way for 2 Wiimotes I still need to test if it actually works, but on this guy's video it works, so great ;) Eh, these forums claimed that in addition to Touchmote I must have bluetooth yyyy

[@Boro87]

Ive set my mousecursor to the wiimote pointer in touchmote. Everything works really well on my desktop. I configured mame so i can play the shootergames with my mousecursor. So why doesnt it work anymore when i point my wiimote at the screen when im in mame? :'( I really dont get it. So close to perfect emulation of a lightgun but its not happening sadly :/

[@OldsXCool]

Nils S Watch the video again, only this time, watch the video.

[@Boro87]

I did watch it and i got the thing with the rightstick to work, its just not so accurate n i cant get to the borders. I dont understand why mame isnt picking up my mouse when its controlled bye the wiimote, its a real shame it doesnt work

[@OldsXCool]

Ok. I think I know what's wrong. First of all, don't try to use the mouse mode in touchmote to control the MAME lightgun because it will not work which is the reason why my two videos even exist. Second, you need to go to your MAME config file (mame.ini) and change the setting called joystick_saturation located under core input options. If it's set too high it can cause the cursor not to go all the way to the extremities of the screen. I have mine set to 0.65. I think it's default is set to 1. Also while you're there make sure that joystick_deadzone is set to 0.

[@Boro87]

Thanks a lot! i will try this out

[@Boro87]

It works so well now OMG! THANKS! U just saved me 200 bucks. IL BE BACK!! ^^

[@LordBarko]

I still cannot get this to work. Windows 10 doesn't seem to recognise the device as an Xiput controller.

[@hamzasale2651]

In mame, i push trigger, but nothing happens! In the mame config bit

[@DungarooTV]

Hit enter then choose the trigger button (B)

[@chrissre7935]

my touch mode says only EXIT when it is at the taskscreen really shity app if it dsnt tell you what your doing wrong.

[@miraclechild_502]

when i try to set my X and Y inputs with the swipes it doesn't read it why is this happening

[@RiseHomesElPaso]

Any luck?

[@3d_dos452]

it only works until the version of mame 0.174 after mame no longer recognizes the wiimote

[@OldsXCool]

That's not possible because MAME is not recognizing the Wiimote itself, but a XBOX 360 controller instead. If you are using the mouse profile in Touchmote it will not work.

[@3d_dos452]

@@OldsXCool works Now...use a touchmote software and aply correct map buttons and axis and works fine.in the last versión mame 0.208

[@necropod5188]

hey dude...no matter what i do my dirrections are all messe up ...left is going to top corner ect.

[@JohnSmith-qn3ob]

To get a better image you should just use video capture software (like fraps)

[@OldsXCool]

John Smith I did it this way on purpose. I'm well aware of screen recording methods.

[@midnight7373]

Anyone tried this on newer versions of mame,been messin with it for 3 days now,wiimote works on windows so I know the controller and Wii bar are good,switch settings to xbox controller settings then go into mame wiimote wont set anything...

[@midnight7373]

After fighting with new dolphin bar 3 days,looked at it with my camera on my phone,one side wasnt even lighting up,then used an old wii. Spent couple days messing with it and finally started working after I reinstalled touchmote. Win10 mame .201

[@OldsXCool]

That is a very common problem with Dolphin Bars. Whenever I look at the reviews for them there are always way too many people complaining that they have LEDs that aren't working either right out of the box or just a few months down the road. I've thought about getting one myself but that always stops me from getting one.

[@richarddonaldson330]

hey great video but if you can redo this video that would be awesome

[@musicvideoenhancer]

Eveything worked, except for the fact that, confguring a X360 stick to the wiimote pointer, the emulation of x360 controller means the pointer is supposed to go back to the center of the screen, so, everytime you cross the middle of the screen with the wiimote, the AIM acts strange, being "grab" by the center of the screen. If you try to change Touchmote to mouse pointer, MAME don't recognize the wiimote movements. So, it's pretty much non-functional, unfortunately.

[@OldsXCool]

You have to adjust the joystick dead zone to 0 in the MAME ini file. It's got a default dead zone of 0.3 I believe which is why your cursor gets stuck in the middle.

[@musicvideoenhancer]

@@OldsXCool It is exactly as you said, now it's working flawlessly. Finished Revolution X today, it was lots of fun, thanks for the reply man!

[@OldsXCool]

You're welcome. Thanks for watching and have fun shooting things in the face!

[@jamescole5018]

it lagging and hard to move

[@OldsXCool]

Check the following: -check your batteries in the Wiimote -make sure there are no other competing light sources interfering with the sensor bar -make sure that other blue tooth devices like wireless keyboards and mice are away from the Wiimote -move your blue tooth dongle to one of the front USB ports of your computer All of these things can cause erratic behavior. I actually had to get a USB extension cord and move it away from my computer because it was picking up interference from somewhere at or behind my computer. I also had a wireless keyboard at my brother's house that was interfering with the Wiimote signal and had to put the keyboard on the floor while using the Wiimote.

[@jeffrielly]

Is there a software driver that works for newer wiiremotes? I tried to connect mine which had a motionpluss built in, and it doesn't recognize it :(
