hi there, amazing work, thank you so much.

i am using 2 wiimotes and am super happy with it except for 1 thing - pairing the remotes is a real pain. however i found a script at https://github.com/jordanbtucker/WiiPair which i have modified somewhat to just remove all wiimotes and then attempt to pair until it has found x remotes - which works really well. it's in C++ how it's fairly simple in what it does.

would it be possible to get this implemented in control center somehow to be able to force-connecting each wiimote? that would be incredible.

thanks again

Pairing the Wii Remotes is indeed quite some pain. I had some plans to work and improve on that. Especially working on actual paring and enabling reconnecting by just a button press.

However, not having worked on this project for almost 3 years, don't count on it 😞
If you are familiar with programming yourself, you can clone the source code for the Control Center, add it yourself and build your own version of the Control Center. You can use C++ in the C# Control Center through C++/CLI, see the HID Wiimote User Mode library.
