DESCRIPTION
USB Missile Launcher NZ can be used to control a USB Missile Launcher and the DreamCheeky Rocket Launcher. Perform covert operations from your desk. Fire missiles at passing colleagues. Strap a camera on top of the Launcher and record the video of your covert operations.
WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.4.11:
  • Distribution created by automated build
  • Changed application identifier from "com.david.USB Missile Launcher NZ" to "com.david.USBMissileLauncherNZ" - this resolves issues with PackageMaker 3.0 - preferences are also reset as a result of this. Users could also delete the file "~/Library/Preferences/com.david.USB Missile Launcher NZ" if they want to.
  • Enhanced deployment package so that System Extensions (Kext) files don't always need to be installed, and thus don't need to reboot
  • Code Cleanup in USBMissileControl, DeviceNotification procedure
  • Found and fixed an issue with menu controls for the launcher - specifically move up/right
  • Fix an issue in Germal localisation language translation file
  • Major internal engineering change with main window and NSResponder
  • Modified driver code to handle USB device connection issues better and in a more friendly way to avoid application crashes
  • Video window can now be closed and re-opened
  • Main application window cannot be closed
  • Fixed a bug in MissileControl for handling multiple launchers - only impacted there was DreamRocketII style launcher connected
  • Launch controls drawer now has background picture (yea, big deal - I know).
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4, requires actual USB Missile Launcher Hardware.

    DAVID WILSON  bedouin...

    I am working on version 1.4e, it incorporates your requested feature to disable the camera (preference option) and another preference option to reverse the arrow keys. I've been doing a lot of work at the USB driver level to detect feedback from the DreamCheeky Rocket Launcher. At the moment I'm working on debugging the USB code, as I'm presently getting timeouts on the USB communications port.

    Development has been delayed as my Machine is in for repairs at the moment (last 2 weeks and counting!!).

    In the mean time check out my wordpress blog for updates.

    BEDOUIN  How about an option in the preferences to disable video completely? I have an AlchemyTV card installed and I get the camera window even if I don't have a camera attached.  (Version 1.4c)

    DAVID WILSON  Strictly speaking you do not need to reboot your machine (and you can quit the installer) if you already have the application and system extension (kext) installed. In this release at least the system extension has not changed. This may not be the case for a 10.5 release.  (Version 1.4b)

    BEDOUIN  Why does this require a reboot?  (Version 1.4b)
