Storm Launcher

Controls the Dream Cheeky O.I.C Storm & Thunder USB Missile Launchers.

There are a few projects for using older launchers in Linux, but I couldn't find any for this launcher, so... enjoy.

This script requires PyUSB 1.0+, apt in Debian/Ubuntu installs 0.4. To install PyUSB 1.0 by hand:

git clone git://github.com/walac/pyusb.git
cd pyusb
python setup.py install --user

Also, on Debian\Ubuntu systems you need the python-imaging-tk

You need to run stormLauncher.py as root or add the following rule to udev (e.g. /etc/udev/rules.d/80-storm-launcher.rules)

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="2123", ATTR{idProduct}=="1010", GROUP="games"

Make sure your restart udev, unplug/plug the Storm Launcher to your pc.

sudo service udev restart

Please put the current user into the games group, and log out and login afterwards.

sudo gpasswd -a `whoami` games

Getting Started:

git clone [email protected]:nmilford/stormLauncher.git
cd stormLauncher
./stormLauncher.py

Usage:

  • Use arrow keys aim.
  • Press return to fire.
