FreeTrack Forum

I'm using freetrack 2.2;  Wiimote with a 3 LED (Osram SFH485P) clip which is battery powered.

I have a Saitex X52 Pro plugged in, a cheap blutooth dongle using the toshiba stack.

The bluetooth and wiimote connect perfectly.  I then start up freetrack which also works brilliantly   (100 FPS!) with the wiimote.

I then start up 'Rise of Flight' but loose either the head tracking or the joystick imput whilst playing   .  If I remove one of the inputs the other starts to work fine...

Both the joystick and wiimote work individually in their own setups (freetrack 2.2 and saitek interface) when plugged in at the same time.

I can get it to work by the following procedure but it's somewhat longwinded:

(from desktop)
1.  Plug joystick in.  Close Saitek interface.
2.  Start 'Rise of Flight'.  Choose profile and check joystick is working.
3.  Start mission/campaign.
4.  ALT/TAB out of game back to desktop.
5.  Plug in Bluetooth dongle.
6.  Click on Wiimote shortcut and connect.
7.  Start Freetrack 2.2.
8.  Load 'ROF' profile and ensure mouse emulation is ticked.
9.  Minimise everything.
10.  Expand 'Rise of Flight' and continue playing   .

One of the problems with this is that whilst not 'in mission' the head tracking still moves the mouse about making it difficult to select anything!

Any ideas why I can't seem to use the two inputs (Bluetooth and X52) at once in this game?  (I haven't yet experimented with other games).  It seems to me that it only wants to recognise one input at a time and wants to recongnise the Wiimote as a joystick...

Sorted it!

XP seems to have configured the Wiimote as joystick 1 (Joy_0) and my X52 as joystick 2 (Joy_1).

All my commands for the game were as Joy_0.

I had to re-enter all of my commands and I'm ready to fly.  Works a treat .

A note for future reference is to have the Wiimote configured before i configure the controls and program the stick.

PS - tried to alter the XP setting so that my X52 would be Joy_0 again but couldn't get it to work.  Anyone know how?
