Driver for USB Missile Launcher in Windows 7 closed Ask Question. You need to download and install a USB library access to the Python language for it.

For the first part which is the most important, I have found a few linux ports of the driver, but can I use the driver that came with the program? Or can I take the linux code and build a driver in Windows?
The most helpful source I have found is the code from the NZ Mac port but I have no idea what to do with it.
Any hints and tips appreciated. It's my introduction to drivers.
EDIT - More thoughts
I get the feeling I can just call and receive USB commands. In the code of dgwilson from the NZ mac port he has this:
Does that mean there might be a USB library that will just send these commands and receive the feedback commands? Spore free.
The answer
It has all been done before and is sitting and waiting at rocket.codeplex.com Even the stuff I was thinking of doing (WiiMote connection)!

I just bought a Dream Cheeky Thunder Missile Launcher, which seems to be the successor to the model mentioned in the question here (and also to the model that rocket.codeplex.com was written for).
But I couldn't get rocket.codeplex.com to work with my model (yes, I used the constructor overload which lets me supply the VendorID and DeviceID, and yes, I supplied the correct IDs for my model), so I wrote my own library.

It looks like somebody already did the hard work for you - check out comment #8 from the link you posted:
(There's a windows .dll download and a simple API referenced there that you can use in your app.)

'Retaliation' kicks ass.. Serial experiments lain episode 1. works like a charm and it's super simple to modify and get running..
you need to download and install a USB library access to the Python language for it to workhttp://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/libusb-win32/wiki
with this program, install the filter driver, this enables you to capture everything that is sent thru that USB port, remember which one, because it will only work if you plug it again in that specific port..
after that, just run retaliation.py and enjoy =)
I made some modification to my retaliation.py, since i have an old model of rocket launcher, it doesnt come with the 'load sequence' without firing..
the second command, fires after 'loading up', so unsuspected victims dont hear the loading sound, since it was 'pre-loaded', just the click and the missile flying..
also, with the old version of the rocket launcher, you can send values that are too high on the move command and the rocket launcher will try to do it, seems newer versions stop the base from going after some spots, older version does as well, but only when it reaches the max value, so sending move(2000000, left) will make it go all the way left and then try to keep going left, basically breaking the gears, but if it's already at the max left, it will ignore the command, so i modified the move like so:
this might seems horrible, but it's the only way to be sure it's not going over the max value when you send a move command, specially when using the 'park' command, that moves the launcher to the 0,0 position..
hope this helps someone =)
cheers
