Im sorry, i had to go to bed, it was 2:00am last night when I was posting (I asked what time it was in australia because it seemed as though to me you were nocturnal). And wow! Thank you so much for this tutorial that you gave me! Yes, the only particle is Fire. I followed everything in your tutorial given, and so far it seems as though its working! That visual guide you created was just what I needed!:attn: Ill post back when its done just to make sure everything went Ok!

EDIT: one hour later: Holy crap this takes a long time... im only at 220 frames...

Yay, not a freshman anymore!

great, i was starting to think you had a hardware problem user added image

oh yea, sorry, 300 was a random figure, you could have done 5 or 10 or 100, but if you had left it t the default settings (10) you may have missed something
