Hi to all i need to find a way to run a freepie instance on a pc and send the data to another one where the actual game is running. is there a way to do it with a script or someone who wrote a freepie network plugin?

Thanks in advance.

Over WiFi it might be somewhat problematic due to latency... but I still hope for an OSC plugin, this would allow for some interesting interactions.

Over Bluetooth it would need hardware - but that might not be that hard to implement. Most Bluetooth dongles have an option to add a virtual COM port (this differs from system to system - google accordingly). When you get that working on both computers, they should be able to communicate.

Then you need to handle the serial data from Python. You might look at this thread:
