Wii remote hacks and exploits are continuously being explored. And while it is possible to "access" your computer via your Wii console, it's quite another thing to actually use the Wiimote to control your PC. And so, Carl Kenner comes into the scene, and he's not letting anyone down with his GlovePIE app.

The said Wiimote-to-PC script that turns the Wii remote into an HID (Human Interface Device) for the PC is now clicked at GlovePIE v0.29. The biggest features of this version is that it now supports Wiimote speakers and the function to minimize the button to the System Tray. The support for the Classic Controller (introduced in the previous version) is now more than just theoretical and finally fully tested to be working.

Here's the full list of changes, tweaks, improvements, and additions included in GlovePIE v0.29:

• Minimize to System Tray button
• Recent Files menu
• OutputToFile( ) function to write values to output.txt
• Division by zero no longer crashes compiler
• Automatically connect Wiimotes when you press 1+2 (bluesoleil only, you need to do it manually with other stacks) Hold Power button to disconnect Wiimote.
• Wiimote speaker supported (single notes only, no wave files)
• Classic Controller support fixed and tested
• Wiimote.SmoothPitch and Wiimote.SmoothRoll now calculate angles without separating out the acceleration, for smooth (but inaccurate) angles when your hand wobbles.
• "Press X" now works without brackets
• "100Hz" now works without space
• Numbers allowed after dot, "Wiimote.1" works like "Wiimote.One"
• Infinity and NaN are now valid numbers.
• Other compiler improvements
• Improved documentation
• More scripts! Play old Zelda, Mario, or Metroid games with the exact same controls as the modern Wii game.
