As I have understood, this unit has been awaited for a long time. It's quite large, but so it is in the real life too :)

Download

All files except bomberbomb.flc and bomberbomb.wav are edited.

Edit: here's a correct Ini-file (the one in the zip was incorrect)

:eek: Exemplary Work as always:goodjob:
 
fantastic. Thankyou so much!
 
You're wellcome ;)

Oops, I notice atleast one mistake in the cocpit. there are too many window holes :blush:

Starting from the lowest row on the sides, there should be 4, 3 and 2 windows. Now there's 4, 3 and 3 windows. I hope this is okay with you (since this is a mod of the original B29 ;) )
 
Excellent bomber aaglo:goodjob:
But not sounding too nxpxy spellcheck the INI.file okay:p
 
Doh!

I made the zip without unedited ini-file... :wallbash: :wallbash: :wallbash:

Now the fixed ini is downloadable in the 1st post.

and the portrait is here :p

Know the feeling HeeHee (remember My prob with the Ork big'Un :lol: )
 
I use:

-Pov-Ray (www.povray.org) to make all the frames and models.
-FLICster (download from the utilites-forum) to make flc's.
-StoryBoardBuilder (SBB, download from the utilities-forum) to make the pcx-storyboards (required to make the animations with FLICster).
-Gimp, PaintBrush & some other various gfx-programs for some miscellaneous minor jobs.
 
Hey aaglo could you PM me a step by step instruction on how you use/build units with these progs? That is the process that you use, from beginning to final.
 
Hmmm... that would be some 25 000 step instructions...
I think I won't.

Besides, the pov-ray has a great tutorial in the help-section

Just go through all of them, and you'll know all about the basics. ;)
 
no :) what I was asking about was what prog does one start with to the nexted prog etc.....like povray create modles then to ? flic or SBB then to ?
 
AWESOME!!! Can you consider doing a German Ar 234 jet bomber which would be for the same era and maybe a variant for a ww2 german heavy bomber?
 
There was a thing on the History Channel about the B-29's Last Mission in World War II when the bombed an Oil Refinery in Japan in the closing hours of World War II just hours before the Japanese surrendered.
Hmm, I have SM's Tri-Bomber, and the B-52. Thanks aaglo, this unit would fit nicely to fill in the Heavy Bomber Line in between a WWI and a Modern Heavy Bomber :).
 
wow. :) you always amaze me aaglo :) can't wait to try this one out ingame :)

Wow, looks good. Maybe a little big, its even bigger than my B-52.

That's what I was afraid too... :undecide:

But hopefully this is okay, since none of the unit's in the game are 'in scale' ;)
