Bug Description

It seems to be a general problem, not exactly connected with wiican.
The new wiimote plus are not working. lswm does not detect it.
wminput with mac cannot nonnect and Wmgui does not detect it as well.
However, when I was trying wiican, wiimote was connected and visible by xinput,
but I was not able to use it as a mouse. The cursor remained in the same place...

It seems that this is some problem with cwiid. I've found some fixes, but they are for HBC

Same here. Just bought one of those "RVL-CNT-01-TR" in Canada today. My old Wiimotes are working perfectly. I can't connect to the new one. But it works on a Wii.

Hi @bzdet99

Cwiid site states that motion plus works with cwiid.

http://abstrakraft.org/cwiid/wiki/MotionPlus

Would you be so nice to test that snippet for verifying motion plus is supported?

Hi @madrang

Could you please fill a new bug for the "RVL-CNT-01-TR" issue? We'll take a look to a fix there, i'm sure it could be solved.

"RVL-CNT-01-TR" is the wireless name of those new wiimote with motion plus. They also have a new Dev\Vend ID.

Hi
Probably some old series of the wiimote plus are working (I don't know
because I do not have one). In the new one
Nintendo changed a communication protocol and they are not working.
See the wii forum (connected with HBC), that I've posted.
The result of connecting the new one is, as I've described.

best
Artur
