Mr Wagener, you may have just become my favourite homebrew developer. Well done for making the Wii a device still worth having! --Pinecone 17:42, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

You can request a WAD at WADder.net :)--pbsds 20:37, 22 February 2010 (UTC)


I can possibly do the graphics you still need as well as a banner (maybe..). --bg4545 20:52, 22 February 2010 (UTC)


Umm... Maybe I'm an idiot, but I can't figure out how to change the ip at the first screen, there's no enter button, and if I exit, it resets the ip again. What am I doing wrong? KenithCanule 23:31, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

The ip can be changed by any combination of text-selecting, deleting and backspacing like any other textbox. Pressing 'Connect' should then let you connect to the vnc server. Are you sure that the wii is connecting to the network at all? Paulwagener 00:12, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
You're right, and I DO feel like an idiot now. I just got back from vacation, and my wireless settings were off, so once I fixed that and got the wii to connect, WiiVNC worked great! (With TightVNC)Thanks for this app! KenithCanule 19:31, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Nice Job works really well! Only suggestion would be to mask the password entry --Scanff 04:22, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Done! Paulwagener 11:58, 28 February 2010 (UTC)


I tried both TightVNC and UltraVNC but all I get is a codedump after the password was entered and the app tries to log in :( —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stolper (talkcontribs) 12:41, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

I can't reproduce this problem myself, are there more people with this problem? Paulwagener 16:09, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
Works with TightVNC server running on my Vista laptop. --Scanff 17:25, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
The app might get unstable with plugged in USB mouses/keyboards, you should look if the problem persists without any USB device attached.Paulwagener 14:43, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
Got it working by unplugging the UBS-HDD. Nice tool, thank you :D Stolper 20:17, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

Great app, thank you. Works quite well with TightVNC on Ubuntu although sometimes the screen doesn't refresh so things happen but are invisible to the client. Am I the only one finding that the keyboard (usb & on screen) has a problem? For me it gives the wrong character (shifted by two to the right) for "h" it actually enters a "k", for "r" I get a "y" etc... This is only in the VNC session not before connection. Fishears 06:32, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Did you try connecting to the server with a 'regular' VNC client to see if that works correctly? Could be the problem lies with Ubuntu/TightVNC. Paulwagener 11:58, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Are there any plans for Multi-Monitor Support? Love the application, and it would be even nicer with dual/tri/quad monitor support. --PhoenixWing 02:25, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

This is something that the VNC server has to implement. Can't really do anything about it in the client.Paulwagener 11:58, 28 February 2010 (UTC)


I don't think that any severs currently support it but could audio be implemented in anyway?--Buzzard 21:43, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, not going to happen. Paulwagener 22:49, 1 March 2010 (UTC)


Hey all :D! I'm from Poland and not very good speak English... This prograsm is really cool! I got idea! Add option "only view" on WiiVNC. I must unplug sensorbar to "on" it :D. --piotr_a3 15:42 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the kind words! There is an 'only view' option in most VNC servers, so it's as easy as toggling that. Or you could just take the batteries out of the wiimote ;) Paulwagener 17:05, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Options

This works pretty well for me but the problem is it is very laggy. I use UltraVNC and the only way it's not laggy on comp to comp is if is in "tight" mode or low color. I think it would be nice to have some options in this to reduce lag on slower networks.EriQH 17:05, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

This app is just awesome, thanks! Couldn't you add a option to change the controls or maybe a option to disable them? I just wanted the images on my TV, so I can control the rest with GlovePIE via bluetooth. --Yuri Soares 16:32, 16 November 2010 (CET)

  • Most VNC servers support a 'view-only' mode. I think that might solve your problem. Paulwagener 20:34, 16 November 2010 (CET)

Thanks. Does it have Audio Support? (for using with rdesktop) --Yuri Soares 16:30, 17 November 2010 (CET)

help

How do you work this?--Wiiqwertyuiop 16:13, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Spanish Version

I am French and the previous version was in French but now in version 1.2.1, the interface is in Spanish. I hope this bug will be fixed soon. Vlad 17:45, 16 November 2010 (CET)

  • Thanks for the heads up. Somehow debug code made it into release. I fixed it now. Paulwagener 20:16, 16 November 2010 (CET)

Controls

Thank you for this piece of software. I think it's great! But the controls need to be a bit more flexible in my opinion. First, they should be customizable (even if it's just through a config file). There should be different "control modes" or "profiles" that you can switch on-the-fly (without having to restart it). You should be able to send keypresses or even key combinations using the wiimote (for example, the up, down, left and right buttons could send the up, down, left and right keys), which would be great to control some applications from the Wii. Also it should be able to use the nunchuck or even the classic controller as inputs.

Here is a suggestion for the default profile:

  • If nunchuck is not connected:
    • Up, down, left and right: scroll view
    • A: left click
    • Plus, minus: Zoom
    • 1+up, 1+down: mouse scroll
    • 2: Onscreen Keyboard
    • B+A: Right click
    • B+up, B+down, B+left, B+right: send keys up, down, left or right
    • B+minus: tab key
    • B+plus: enter key
  • If nunchuck is connected:
    • Analog stick: scroll view
    • Up, down, left and right: send keys up, down, left or right
    • Z+analog up or down: mouse scroll
    • A:Left click
    • Plus, minus:zoom
    • 2: Onscreen Keyboard
    • B+A: right click
    • B+minus: tab key
    • B+plus: enter key
