David, >> Any suggestions? << I have a workaround for this limitation – it worked nicely for me. I'll give you some pointers but don't have time to describe it in full. I call it my pseudo motion blur: 1) render your explosion with no object or scene motion blur, but alpha on. Save as 32-bit images. 2) make an .ifl of the sequence of the rendered .tgas 3) use video post to composite several layers of the explosion, each layer is staggered in time by 1 frame. In the "alpha" column use queue alpha channel. In the "trans" column use different grayscale images (try luma 64, luma 96, luma 128) to give a transparent/blurry quality to each layer. Experiment. If you have a PAR it'll make this a whole lot easier. Gosh, here I go again give away all my secrets for nothing – what a fool <g>. Martin
