Im looking to do something like the picture below using fume fx....any sugestions? should i use particles, or just simple sources? maybe some wind?....please, im so lost!
I've only tried fumefx once and I didn't really get all that in depth with it. Can you use source objects? If so I would suggest using a sphere source and obscuring it with a black sphere so it looks like an eclipse.[Link to www.3dprevis.com]
hmmm, what comes to my mind is a simple tube, hollow inside and use it as your emiter, (if you want a solid cylinder object, you can fake it by just placing a cylinder inside the tube) play a bit with your fuel and burn values and if you want a bit of turbulence, you can always experiment with turbulence and turbulence scale
The secret of creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.
