HID Wiimote - A Windows Device Driver for the Nintendo Wii Remote

Builds

You can get test signed and zipped Driver Packages from the project site: https://julianloehr.de/educational-work/hid-wiimote/

Build yourself

To build the driver yourself you need the following software. All paths in the project are either relative or are using Visual Studio Macros.

The One-Click Build is open Build > Batch Build..., check only all BuildAndZip Configurations and hit Build or Rebuild. This will build all drivers, the installer, pack everything into a Driver Package and Zip it. The final Zips are then found in the Zip folder.

Requirements

  • Visual Studio 2015
  • Windows Driver Kit (WDK 10)

Both can be downloaded on this page: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/dn913721.aspx

Paths to adjust

The Driver Package is going to copy the Driver Package Installer (DPInst) into the Build directory. (Only on Release Configurations)

Normally the WindowsSdkDir Macro in Visual Studio should point to the Windows SDK 10 installation directory (which in turn contains the WDK). If not either fix it or change the path in the Driver Package Properties > Driver Install > Package Files.

Projects Overview

Build And Zip

Helper project to zip the Driver Packages after building. Has only Release Configurations, so should be only used on Release builds. Has a dependency on HID Wiimote Package so the package itself is build/rebuild as well.

HID Miniport

My own implementation of the MsHidKmdf driver, so I can pass some function addresses to the HID Wiimote driver. It basically just passes everything down to the HID Wiimote filter driver, additionally a custom IOCTL to request function addresses.

HID Wiimote

Main driver - does all the important Wiimote stuff.

HID Wiimote Package

Driver Package/Utility project, to pack everything into one package and sign it. No code, just settings.

TinyInstaller

My main installer written in C#. Just a helper to install my certificate to boost the driver ranking (so it will be picked instead of the default driver). Then invokes the Driver Package Installer (DPInst.exe).
