+#summary Frequently asked questions about GiiMote
+#labels Phase-Support
+
+ * *What is GiiMote?*
+ * GiiMote is an open source extension for [GML] and [MATLAB] which
adds support for Nintendo's innovative [WiiRemote Wii Remote]. To use
GiiMote, you will need a registered copy of [GameMaker Game Maker] or
[MATLAB].
+ * *I get an error before I even do anything; how do I fix it?*
+ * Make sure you have the [DotNet Microsoft .NET Framework] installed
on your computer.
+ * *I can't see the help file, what's wrong?*
+ * If the help file is not being displayed properly it is most likely
being blocked by Windows. See [UnblockFiles here] for instructions on
unblocking restricted files in Windows.
+ * *Does GiiMote have any dependencies?*
+ * Yes, GiiMote uses [DotNet Microsoft's .NET Framework] technology.
+ * *Is GiiMote open source?*
+ * Yes, GiiMote is, and always will be, open source.
+ * *Where can I find the source code?*
+ * You can view the source
[http://code.google.com/p/giimote/source/browse/ here] and find out more
about obtaining your own copy by reading the [BuildDocumentation build
documentation].
+ * *If GiiMote is open source, can I join the project and contribute code
or wiki articles?*
+ * Yes, you can! See the [GettingStarted getting started guide] for the
details.
+ * *Does the GiiMote project use any sort of version control?*
+ * Yes, you can find instructions for checking out GiiMote over
subversion (SVN) on [http://code.google.com/p/giimote/source/checkout this
page].
+ * *Can I get access to the subversion repository and commit my changes?*
+ * Start out by submitting a few [CreatingPatches patches], then
request an invite to join the [http://groups.google.com/group/giimote dev
group] and ask for access there.
+ * *How do I use the Wii Remote's speaker?*
+ * The speaker on the Wii Remote is not supported at this time.
+ * *What has changed in the latest version of GiiMote?*
+ * To see recent changes see the [ChangeLog changelog].
+ * *What has changed in the latest revision of GiiMote's source code?*
+ * To see recent commits visit
[http://code.google.com/p/giimote/source/list this page].
+ * *What has changed in the project overall recently?*
+ * To see all changes to the project which have occured recently see
[http://code.google.com/p/giimote/updates/list this page].
+ * *The GMC says this project does not work yet, does it?*
+ * Yes, there are lots of old posts on the GMC, the current stable
version of the project works fine.
+ * *How does my computer communicate with the Wii Remote?*

computer must have an internal or external Bluetooth radio that supports
the standard HID (Human Interface Device) service.

+ * I'm afraid I don't know, there are many lists of devices which
support the Wii Remote online, most likely the answer is yes.

your edits in patch form. After they are reviewed I will add your pages to
the wiki.
+ * *My question is not covered here, what do I do?*
+ * Post your question on the
[http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=313260 GiiMote topic] at the
