What's a good program to create realistic looking flame animations?
 

I need to make something look like it's burning. What's the best way to do this?

3D Max

i used to have a nice plugin for adobe that you could make badass flames with it. the name of it escapes me at the moment however :\

Was it Eye Candy?


I'm downloading 3d Max now, thanks for the tip dready.

Use After Effects if you're handy with those kinds of programs. AE has a ton of very realistic and manageable fire plugins available.

If you have never used 3D Max before it could take some weeks before you can meke some good looking flames :winkwink:

that might have been it, name sounds familiar. I have stopped messing around with ps/image ready though, so im out of the loop.

Better spend $10,000 on some schooling to learn how to use 3dmax lol.

wtf is your sig LOL

Looks like a scene from Dune.

Hmm, ok, I think I'll pass on that.

Anyone use Swift 3d?
