[WiiFlash] WiiFlash with Mac OS X or Vista

[zshe803 at cse.unsw.EDU.AU]

I have been unable to get it working under Vista as the bluetooth dongle I
have is the one that is used for my keyboard and mouse.

I have got it working on Windows XP in Parallels on my MacBook using the
Bluesoliel Stack.

Steps I took to get it working:
Install AppleBluetoothDrivers

For Bluesoleil:
1) Install Bluesoleil
2) Open C:\Program Files\IVT Corporation\BlueSoleil\bttl.inf
3) Go to the HW4 section and change the first line under it to:
ID=USB\VID_05AC&PID_8205
4) Save
5) Open C:\Program Files\IVT Corporation\BlueSoleil\Driver\Usb\btcusb.inf
6) Go to the IVT section and change the first line under it to:
%CSR.DeviceDesc%=Btusb_DDI, USB\VID_05AC&PID_8205

Restart Windows XP

Run console version of WiiFlash.

I am then able to use the WiiMote within Flash under Mac OS if i modify
the code to connect to the IP address of Parallels rather than the
localhost.

Does anyone have any code that helps with making sense of and smoothing
out the rotation information from the wiimote?

Regards,
Zac
