        This one was also rendered in Maxwell. The flame is from the online materials library.

        how do you do the flame? do you make a surface and apply the material to it and it just comes out like that, or do you model an actual flame and apply the material to that?

          You can just apply the texture to a rectangle. The material does the rest. It's basically a clip mapped emitter if I recall.

            Hi Troyhome

            Unfortunately this material works only 2d, ie I had to have 2 faces to cast the light in 2 directions.

            Would like to try and map to a flame model some time.

            cheers

            Andre

              How about this? Done in Vue.

              No post processing flame is rendered.

              If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

                  Another animation render (last one I promise) to see how the flame works at different angles.

                    Really nice Pete! Is that an animated .gif used on an alpha plane?

                      I used a cropped .avi on an alpha plane.

                        Could you supplement the .avi with a small omni light as it doesn't appear to have any light casting quality?

                          I have a small omni present, I could bump up the multiplier for more glow.

                                I'd love to enter this challenge; but darnit, my windows PC took a dump yesterday(watch out for the latest nVidia system drivers, at least on the 780i) due to corrupted USB drivers and I can't get into the comp at all thanks to only having USB mouse and keyboard. 😡 😡 😠

                                Not to mention my monitor picked today to die. 😒

                                Complaints, I has them! Don't close the challenge yet ☀ ! That is, unless there's a way to get Sketchup working on my Linux laptop!

                                  😢 My Indigo gave me a great day to stop working 😳
                                  Anyone know the solution?
