Someone built an untextured B-29 a while back, I have one in my missions editor. Check to see if you have the same, if not I'll see if this one can be emailed...

GHOST-
If you are successful in building the B-29, it will take you a looooonng time. I'm sure if you get a nice one in the game, somebody will help you out with a terrain :-) The H-Bomb explosive force is easy: just give a bomb an extremely large explosive. I don't know that doing the mushroom cloud thing is doable though. Still, the terrain and the bomb should be the least of your worries. In fact, you might even want to start by making a ground object as sort of a, "hello world!", before you start on such a monsterous project.

good luck!

One way to fake a mushroom cloud would be to have the cloud unhide as part of the damage routine in a ground object you are bombing.

I just made the Fatman bombs warhead 5000 and the explosion was good enough for me. I dropped it at 15,000 ft. and the shockwave got me after a while (20 sec.) It would be kewl however to have the cloud.

P.S. Yes I figured out to add a new bomb loadout to a plane all by myself. So when you edit the mission is says "Fatman Abomb" and it really loads up the fatman. Pretty kewl considering I dont know too much about editing anything.

You might find this interesting - it's Dole's old website - check out the B29 ground object available for download.

(Off topic?) Well, after reading this thread, a question comes to my mind. Excepting the fact that to build a B29 stinking its poisonous fungus is not a piece of cake, what is the interest of the entertainment? Only one shot and GAME OVER?!? The baby dropped, what could be the fun of the game? If the cold war must arrive in this game, it will be arm in arm with Enola Gay...
My opinion.

YOU MISS THE POINT THE IDEA OF THE PROJECT IS MORE A STUDY OF WHAT IF ! IN 1945 THE JAPANESSE HAD SHOT DOWN THE ENOLA GAY BEFORE SHE DROPPED THE BOMB ! AND ITS TO THAT END
I WANT TO HAVE AGO AT THIS IDEA ,GRUD IS ALL PEOPLE WANT SHOTTING GAMES LIKE QUAKE IN PLANES ? OR DO THEY WANT SOMETHING ABIT MORE INTERESTING ,LIKE WHAT IF? HISTORICAL ALTERNATIVES!?

Arrowbase, I don't understand what you are talking about. What I do know for sure is that its a big project, but its great that we have a new experienced modeler working here (GHOST), and if his project succeeds, I'm sure we'll all have fun flying with/against it!

GHOST, I will answer without shouting:
Seen under this angle, if it's about a documentary study, a sight of the spirit, then why not.
I don't have anything against. After all each game must have its boss of end of level.
In any case, I'm badly placed to criticize the interest (technical and historical), I know just that will spend much time to carry it out. I am not a modeller and I do not even intend to test.
As for fighting against, indeed Charm, that can be funny, as much as flying a fly to fight against a bomb of Flytox .
That being said, I do not make a point of starting a flame because it's not at all my intention.

Thus, GHOST, I will follow with much interest your projections on this project.

Without resentment.

Good luck and good flight!

I think we're losing the meaning of this game...
It's fun, simulation (nostalgia maybe?), but the idea of building a b29 with an H bomb doesn't mean we're all killers!!! By the way, the b 17 and fighters did a "good job" too, so don't go on blamin the 29, it's just a game...I hope the one we fight in our game would be the only war in the world...

Peace

I would prefer a B29 loaded with 100lb incendaries and 15+ .50cal MGs instead of and unarmed B29 with a A bomb.

BTW:
A-bomb- fission devices
H-bomb- Developed in the Cold War, fusion reaction, hydrogen bomb
