      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

        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. ๐Ÿ˜ก ๐Ÿ˜ก ๐Ÿ˜ 

                          Not to mention my monitor picked today to die. ๐Ÿ˜’

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

                                        Here's a candle model I found on 3dwarehouse just now. Just added the flame and made the base shiny metal.
                                        Candlestick_lightup.jpg

                                        The flame is animated in realtime but I can't upload the .mov file so I've put a 320x240 on Vimeo
