Hi all, The animation I am attempting to do is of a smoke filled room (well, smoke near the ceiling anyway) and a light beam from a torch sweeping the walls of the room. Is this possible just using layered fog? I have no access to IPAS routines. Thanks in advance, Dom

Dom, Layered fog works just fine, but you won't get any turbulence from it. I have an idea with transparent layers and animated noise.sxp, I'll check it out. Just make sure you have a nearly fully transparent cone, matching your light cone attached to your torch, material set to 'add', so to create a beam. Michael
