I'm interested in applying Wiimote controls to open source games with multiple modes (e.g. FPS with car control, or even just seamless menu and game control).
So far I've been experimenting with glove pie, basically using one of the buttons as a toggle switch to alter the functionallity, is there any way to send a message to GlovePie from within the game or is cWiiMote the only way to go?

Are there any good examples of using cWiiMote? It doesn't seem to come with documentation, or particularly exhaustive comments, it doesn't look too complicated but anything its always nice to have a reference.

What I use is a simple toggle, not sure if you want to know this...

while 1 do
var.On = "1"
wait 190000 days
endif
if Smooth(Wiimote.One, 1000) then
if var.On = "1"
var.On = "0"
else var.On = "1"
wait 1000 ms
endif

Then place code between...

if var.On = "1" then
code
possible else to have to modes already instead of using another if and adjusting the counter as such
code2
endif

Pretty much how I've been testing it for now CASter, thanks for the response, hadn't forgotten about the wait command, damn useful to prevent variable re-initalisation though. Eventually though I want an inbuilt solution so will look into cWiiMote.

I think I'm doing an okay job of documenting it. But it doesn't have motion control (it does have IR). I can put in motion control (probably just mod cwiimote's code) and any other feature requests if I know someone is using it.

Awesome to see mikey, as soon as my wireless sensor bar arrives I'll check it out properly (I imagined shipping would be quicker than this or I'd have just built my own )
