Creation of a Wii NAND

Post by WiiNot »

Automatically translated from French.

Hello everyone,

So, it's been several months now since I bought a WiiMote to connect it to the PC and enjoy my games on PC.
So I have Dolphin as an emulator, I bought a BlueTooth dongle and Windows 8 recognizes the dongle and the controller (Nintendo RVL-CNT-01-TR) just fine and Dolphin tells me a controller is indeed connected.

Today this is the 2nd USB dongle I've tried... Same result, that is the controller blinks, apparently connected and recognized by the system and the emulator but keeps blinking and stays silent for the game.

I've searched a lot, nothing. The only solution I was given on another forum is that I don't have a NAND and that's why the controller doesn't connect or at least doesn't work because it needs to know the console's region.

I tried BootMii (or something like that, I'm not sure of the name) to create a NAND from scratch but I'm not sure it works. According to your tutorial at this address:
tutoswii/emulation-sous-dolphin-t7004.html

It's possible to make one with NUS but I don't know this software. Would anyone have an address or something?
Do you think the problem really comes from that?
Any other idea? Anyway, it would be cool if someone could try to give me a hand :)

Thanks and have a good end of evening.

Do you have a usb sensor bar or candles? Or any other solution providing the IR signal?
I didn't see this part because it looks terribly similar (the part about connecting the controller via BT to the PC) to the Dolphin website's page.

Yes, I do have a sensor bar.

If I'm asking about the NAND it's because I was told...

So what should I do in your opinion to get it working?
Oh yes, I also started in tools -> load system menu and I only get a black screen. But well, I suppose that's because I don't have a NAND, or at least one I generated incorrectly with ModWii.

I had to reread your first message 3 times before understanding what you really wanted. So I'm confirming (again) that it isn't necessary to have a NAND under Dolphin to connect your Wiimotes to the PC.

Someone told you? Post the link to that famous site of yours.

hum... I don't know how to take that sentence... Windows doesn't have 2000 ways of connecting wiimotes :roll:
I've been trying to get my WiiMote working for a while so I don't think I have a link, but it was on other forums.

Well, sorry if I explained myself poorly but to keep it simple:
- I bought a WiiMote pack with the Nunchuk (official Nintendo)
- I have the SensorBar
- A USB dongle. I tested several because I'd seen a compatibility page on the Dolphin website but I can't find that page anymore. Also, on their site there's an Amazon ad but for 40 euros!!! (expensive for a simple dongle).

The controller is apparently properly recognized since it shows up in Windows Device Manager.

Dolphin after syncing finds a connected controller but it doesn't stop blinking.

So I can't use it as it is.

Well otherwise, my previous email was in no way a criticism :)
I read the tutorial but it's true I skimmed some parts. Also, the only lead I have is the NAND.
If you tell me it's not necessary, ok but in that case I don't know what to do anymore :/

Thanks anyway for your help.

I'm not sure this is the right post but I went through all the sites I have for the Wii and on the WiiGen forum there's a post but rouckxwel doesn't clearly tell me I need a NAND.

Do you have any idea what I could do to get it working?

EDIT: Well I read the tutorial and I don't see where it says the NAND isn't necessary :)
Otherwise, I don't understand... My WiiMote is indeed recognized by Windows' device manager but I can't manage to get it recognized by Dolphin anymore (I press the two buttons 1 and 2).

"Let's focus on your basic problem, the wiimote blinking despite being recognized under windows... that's what we're talking about right ?"

There, if I go to "Devices and printers", the Nintendo is recognized and in the "Device manager" it's also shown, like the link in the previous image.

So I open Dolphin, click on WiiMote and on Wiimote1 I select Physical Wiimote.

Then on the pair button, and on the Wiimote I click the 1 and 2 buttons, it doesn't stop blinking as long as I hold it (and a few more seconds when I let go). Well, normally it should detect it but since a while ago I haven't gotten anything...

Should I bring the dongle back to my buddy?

I have no news... No idea or just no time? (that's just a question, ok).

Thanks.

Fighting for hours over nothing or bowing and scraping has never been my way of doing things.
I won't quote the previous posts to add to this one.

This one's without me
Well, since we probably have communication issues, you can remove my account from the forum (and this thread)...

I find you've been aggressive from the start, I'm just trying to find a solution to my problem.

I don't understand why you say fighting for hours over nothing, if only I had ideas or solutions, I could at least try. I tried giving you as much detail as possible, so I don't see where the problem is nor the connection to bowing and scraping!!!

in his defense, I also struggled to connect the Bluetooth. I ended up trying BlueSoleil, a bluetooth device manager. and even then, the software recognized it whenever it felt like it, with duplicates. You really had to follow a precise order of steps to get there.

don't ask me for more, I don't remember more than that and I don't have a bluetooth dongle anymore.

About that, I even formatted my PC a few months ago to install BlueSoleil and do the test.
But even with that I didn't manage to connect the WiiMote.

I'm probably missing something but I did read several tutorials and several times...

Anyway, thanks for stepping in...
