A PC based game using the WiiMote

g3org3 355 posts24 Apr 2008I haven't been here for awhile, I like the new layout and theres still a lot of people I recognize.
I haven't been doing much 3d work at all, since I have been busy at school and all. So I decided to show you guys what I have been up to for the last 4 months. For one of our classes our group decided to create a game using a non-conventional input system.
So it makes use of a bluetooth connected WiiMote, and USB connected accelerometers to create a novel game interface.
As of right now it only supports one WiiMote so only one person can use the "WiiSuit". There are plans on adding multiple WiiMote support in the future as well as adding other features.
If you have a WiiMote and Nunchuck I highly suggest trying it out. It still works with just the WiiMote and not the Accelerometers, .
You can also play it with just a keyboard.
Here is a video of the game in action with the WiiSuit all hooked up.

The game was coded in C# and DirectX9.
My role was to implement the WiiMote and Accelerometers, doing the move recognition, and various other programming tasks. I also helped out with some of the designs. -
mahmoudnahmad 1,159 posts24 Apr 2008animation i really lacking in the game, and when you showed the wee functionality you should have had a focus only on one character so we can tell what your doing, and it really works, in addition you should have made something like street fighters combo moves, so for example two hands front then a (sheruuuken Ken uppercut), as off now i think the game may not be complete, but I LOVE YOUR IDEA don't get me wrong my eyes pooped out of their sockets as soon as i herd the idea cause i can now Imagen playing team fortress 2 using those. -
g3org3 355 posts24 Apr 2008The animation is pretty poor. The person doing the animation just had no clue what he was doing. I will try to get another video of just one character sometime. The game is definitely not complete at all. We honestly did not have enough time to do special moves like that. This project was mainly about project management, so we spent about 1.5 months purely on planning the game and who was doing what and at what time. So we really only spent a 2 or so months on actually creating the game. So considering the amount of time we did quite a lot.
We are planning on updating the game, and one of the main things we want to do is do special moves as well as 2 players using the WiiMote. As well the collision detection for the characters is only really basic so we need to rewrite that.
As well right now I am working on seeing if I can get the WiiMote working for Counter-strike source so I will keep you updated on that since I would believe it would work the exactly the same way with TF2. So that would be interesting.
