   […] I hooked my Wiimote up to my computer, and with a custom GlovePIE script, can use it as a fishing pole in WoW. More info at blog.antiarc.net/2007/04/03/fishing-in-wow-with-the-wiimote/ […]

   this is actually excellent work. although we prefer the keyboards still, we can’t help but commend the brilliance of this piece of work.

   question: is it just the video or the lag time between the wiimote action and the ressponse of the character is quite long? oh well, like you said, the mod can be polished further. keep it up!

   TeamQJ: I think the lag was a combo of things. In the video, I had the keydown time set to 1 second, and I don’t believe the event fires until the keyup event happens. I’ve changed this to 60ms in my published script.

   Second, my server was lagging fairly heavily last night, so I presume that some of it was just network latency. Casting felt a little delayed, but I didn’t really feel any delay in reeling the fish in (which is where it really counts anyway!) and I suspect that even the casting delay will disappear with lower network latency.

   Hi Matt –

   You’ll need a computer with Bluetooth capabilities. If your computer doesn’t have Bluetooth built in, you’ll need to buy an adapter for it.

   I used a Kensingon 33348 USB Adapter on my machine - cost me $25 at my local Best Buy. Before you go shopping, check out the list of compatible devices on WiiLi.org.

   Hope this helps!

   This is great! I’m curious - how much of a pain is it to switch between controlling WoW with the Wiimote and the keyboard/mouse?

   I really want to try this out!

    Lance: The Wiimote just acts as a secondary device - it doesn’t get in the way at all. You can just set it down and go back to the keyboard/mouse combo whenever you like.

    to allow only use of the wiimote i found this for dpad –>mouse support

    if wiimote.Left = true then Mouse.CursorPosX = Mouse.CursorPosX - 8 end if

    if wiimote.Right = true then Mouse.CursorPosX = Mouse.CursorPosX + 8 end if

    if wiimote.Up = true then Mouse.CursorPosY = Mouse.CursorPosY - 8 end if

    if wiimote.Down = true then Mouse.CursorPosY = Mouse.CursorPosY + 8 end if
