I have IPAS DISK 6 and was doing an animation with a spaceship and two flame rockets thrusters. I have the flame box linked to the rocket. As the rocket moves, the flames slide further and further away from the ship. Help! Thanks.

Are you using Flame version 1.0 or 1.1b? If you've got 1.0, you'll need to update to 1.1b to get control over the secondary motion data (SMD) percentage, and bring that down to near 0 for your ship engines.

Hi Guy, << As the rocket moves, the flames slide further and further away from the ship. >> I'd like to know if you have very long life span on your flame particles? If so, then shorten it up. Please see pg 80 in the Disk 6 manual.
