USB Missile Launcher NZ v1.8.0 – Release 9 January 2012

Launch Control – you have a go for main engine start!

The Mac missile launcher software has been updated with some important changes for those that have a “c-enter” branded launcher. It may be possible that the c-enter is also the Satzuma launcher though that is unverified. Other changes include Operating System support for 32 and 64 bit – this means support on Lion and older OS versions that run in 64 bit mode on Mac Pro’s for example.

Feedback (found under Help) has been updated to automatically send usb information and system profiler information via Apple Mail. Usually I need to request this information over e-mail conversations and it can be quite a time consuming exchange of e-mails.

You will hopefully appreciate the changes to the About screen. It shows the readme file in a larger window which means you can get USB information for launcher set up and diagnose faults all from within the application.

Here’s the change summary:

• Support for new launcher c-enter (maybe PE-5858 and Satzuma also?)
• About dialog box customised
• Internal changes for development project to include the kext and preference panes as part of the build
• Feedback updated – now includes ioreg and system profiler information in e-mail
• codekess kext updated for universal 32/64 bit support

The download link is provided below and is also available in the Downloads section of this web site.

[Update: version 1.8.1 has been released to address a 32/64 bit compiler issue – err developer complete lack of testing – link below updated].

Special thanks to “Marcus” who made this release possible for his efforts in getting the c-enter launcher working.
