If you guys ware interested, I've been using a version of the B-29 that I modified myself. Added a bunch of historical bombs to the payload by pulling and modifying them from the base game (AN-M57, AN-M64, AN-M65, AN-M66, M19 incendiary cluster with AN-M69). I put them into various amounts and modified bomb bay positions and made use of the bomb bay hatch function of the B-52 so that the bombs would fall from either two locations or three, depending on the bomb load. Anyway, I'll upload them here. It's not really a drop-in for your file, but I hope you will at least find use in the pylon setup, loadout, and the added weapons. B-29.lua
Zukov Posted May 15, 2021 Posted May 15, 2021 Last i've seen the mod on 2.7, the cockpit textures was missing (never i understand how to fix it). It's nice to see new skins and weapons (thanks Xeno for the custom load up).

It seems it was updated afterwards.

Thanks a lot hawkeye (and friends), this is one of the most useful WW2 AI aircrafts available for DCS, I used it a lot on my Mig-15 missions. Lovely to have more liveries available (at least fro the B-29, the Tu-4 still has relatively few): There is just a single bug that I found ... when the aircraft is cold on the ground, its propellers display their blur texture, instead of being static until the engine starts.

Hawkeye60 Posted December 21, 2023 Author Posted December 21, 2023 I am happy you like it @Rudel_chw This prop issue can, and will be solved. This was Urbi's work around. He does not use max. His talents are in liveries, and code. After the Holidays, I will re visit the Max. Cheers! 3 "Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil.

KrazyPilot Posted December 27, 2023 Posted December 27, 2023 I think this Mod looks and works Great... Except, the props as they seem to be rather low contrast and almost invisible from most angles.. I know that they have the bug on the ground but I mean even when spinning they seem like they maybe have no contrast or real reflections on them? Idk hard to describe..

Zomalk Posted January 8, 2024 Posted January 8, 2024 I recently started using the B-29 mod, and I'm having an issue that I don't know how to approach. I'm not familiar at all with the structure of how the DCS mods are put together, so I am not sure if this is something that can be easily edited or not. A group I fly with has been experimenting with some Korean War events in DCS, and we were thinking of using the B-29 mod to use as central objectives for missions. The problem we are having with the mod is it seems that when engaged, the B-29 AI thinks that it is a fighter, and wants to dogfight. For what we are trying to use it for, this would totally defeat the purpose of having the bombers at all. And on the other hand, it would be nice to not just have lobotomized targets that don't react to gunfire at all and are just waiting to be shot down. How are the AI behaviors are assigned to specific aircraft, specifically in the case for mods? Is there a way to tell the AI pilot to behave like a B-17, or a B-52 AI? I took some time and looked through the .lua files in the mod folder, but didn't find anything super obvious. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers
Mr. Crow Posted February 19, 2024 Posted February 19, 2024 @Zomalk, Have you tried to use passive reaction to threats? Perhaps this would solve the issue. Let me know if it helps.
