Half Life 2 Wiimote Mod

What do I need to play?

In order to play you will need to own the following peices of equipment

• A Nintendo Wii Remote
• A Nintendo Wii Nunchuk
• A Sensor Bar
• A Blue Tooth Dongle

Where can I get a sensor bar?

There is a few third party manufacturers that manufacture Wireless Sensor Bars. Remember if you own a Wii and keep it close to your display, you can use the sensor bar once your wiimote is synced to your computer.

Try looking here if you are intrested in buying one

I hear you can make sensor bars, Is that true?

Yep, a sensor bar is just 2 sets of 5 infrared leds spaced 7.5 inches apart. Because lots of lights give off infrared you can use other light sources to trigger the camera inside the Wiimote but i do not suggest using anything other than IR Leds.

Here is a video on how to make a sensor bar.

What bluetooth dongles will work with this project?

I cannot promise which ones will work, but the one I use works off the blue soliel stack.

I am fairly confident that most the adapters located on this list will be compatible.

What do I need to load software wise before playing?

All that you are required to run prior to the game itself is your bluetooth stack. There is no GlovePie or PPJoy required.

What can be customized as far as controlling?

I always keep customization in mind when i program. You will be able to customize nearly everything about how you controll the character. Some customizable features include

• Screen/Crosshair Turning Rate
• Screen/Crosshair Turning Area
• Input smoothing/filtering
• Infrared mouse emulation and method
• Button binding
• Aiming Methods
• And much more.

On top of all the customizing available you will be able to save your settings out to preset files and send them to friends.

Cant i play with just a mouse?

Not completely if at all. There will be parts in the gameplay where the the wiimote/nunchuk is required.

Will this game conflict my original key/joystick/mouse bindings?

Nope :)

Will this mod work with Garry's Mod?

What games work with this mod?

• Half Life 2
• Half Life 2 : Lost Coast
• Half Life 2 : Episode One

What else work with this mod?

• Rock 24
• Minerva

When will you be releasing the driver so that my Source mod can use it?

I am planning to release it a few weeks after Half Life 2 Wiimote Mod is released. But I cannot promise any dates. I plan on adding full functionality with the gamepad as well, but am holding off on that untill after this project is complete.

Are you trying to phase out the Wii?
