Good things come to those who wait.

Well, unfortunately it took us a lot more time to port "The Wiinstrument" to Windows than promised, but polishing the UI for the Microsoft OS required some extra work. Thanks to Sebastian, who has created some nifty bitmaps and UI changes. The Wiinstrument UI looks equally great on all platforms now. Credits fly also out to Julian, who has put some extra effort into a redesign of the Gosu library, which now supports OpenGL under Windows.

The Wiinstrument 0.2.1 is an in-between release, so you'll get to experience some nice features originally planned for version 0.3 (see the changelog for more infos), but many of the really great things are still missing.

Visit SourceForge and download the first Windows release of The Wiinstrument!

If you have an Intel mac and Mac OS X Leopard, we've got a new release of The Wiinstrument for you.

Download The Wiinstrument 0.2b1151 for Intel macs with Leopard here.

Like the last Windows release, this version is an in-between release on the way to version 0.3, aimed at people who switched to MacOS X Leopard lately. It's not working on PowerPC processors, but the next release should work on PPC again.

This build includes a new, experimental UI for the DrumStiicks (MIDI) mode, shown on the image above.

Have fun with it! :)

Update: It seems that this version works only on Intel machines with Leopard installed. We're working on a fix, till then, try one of the old versions that are mentioned in the comments...

Here is a guide for all Windows users that explains how to connect your Wiimote to the BlueSoleil stack to use it with The Wiinstrument.
