I am creating a fireplace setting and would like to display moving, crackling
fire. What would you suggest? I am on a tight budget, like so many….
Thank you for your help.

i think you have two ways of doing this.
either buy the flame ipas or use some real flame images and using a paint
program edit the flame portion of the images and make alfa chanels for them.
then use these images as ifl image maps and use the alpha chanel images as
opacity maps for a flame material in material editor. map this material on a
flat polygon.

On the R3 CD-ROM there is a scene form 7th Guest which has some flickering
torches. Combine several of them and creating some shapes to map them onto and
you a nice fire fit for a fireplace.
