Hi Andrew ..just a quick question ..is smoke by any chance supported in blender game mode …I put this question in the blender web site and they said no it is not supported ..just wanted to make sure so I can move on to another engine .thanx
OK, I just found this by changing some of the values.
At Coordinates change to Generated, for the both textures.
For the first Texture Check Density and Emmision in the Influence settings pannel.
Now, for the color texture to show when you render try this.
1. At the Infulence setings check Density, Emmision, Emmision Color and Reflection for out-scatter light.
2. The Blend let it be on Mix not on Multiply
Hope it works for you!

Phew glad I found this. Someone else ripped and uploaded a crappy version and I was wondering why you were on their channel.
does anybody know why my particals aren't showing up when i render it
when i render smoke it just looks like balls of sparkles
Awesome tutorial… Thanks! 🙂
Great tutorial!! I'd like to learn how you modeled the flame thrower and its wires. Make more tutorials 😀
color ramp is not applying in 2.78
EDIT – Disregard, I just realized im in cycles. Going to check out the cycles tut.
15:08 [surface, wire, volumen, halo,]
… I dont have those buttons in 2.78. 🙁
Anyone know where they may have been moved /renamed to?
Good tutorial well,¿ how I can do, learn about blender where?
This only works on versions lower than 2.66 the best version for this is 2.62.
Sadly can't follow this all the way in 2.78a. 🙁 I get to the texture details of the box domain, and smoke details and most things are either different or missing. I can get the particles to emit, but I'll be darned if I can get them to look a certain way.
"I don't condone the use of weapons or killing people, it's just a study of fire & physics"
*shows a plane crash*
can the Domain object be animated ?
Using Blender 2.78a and I've watched this video again and again over three days. I can get to fire to look great in solid mode but in (Blender) render mode all I see is a little wisp of smoke. In Cycles render the domain becomes a solid box. Very frustrated. I've followed every step of this as best I can with the newer version but I'm still not getting the same results. REALLY, REALLY hope to see an updated version of this excellent tutorial soon. Thanks very much.
Dear Blender Guru,
I am using Blender 2.78 and seem to be having a problem with the render (F12). All I see is black and white. I have followed the instructions from this tutorial three times. A major difference in this version is that Flames and Smoke are an option – very nice. All that displays nicely in Solid Mode but when I preview the render all I see is black and white. In fact the same is true for all on my projects. Is there some setting I need to adjust?
YAYYAYAYA NO CYCLES!
Cycles is my enemy, too much time to render without image noise…. >:)
mine is not rendering it just shows the plane?
The Smoke Wont appear for me when i turn on the smoke modifier
Can i do the same thing in cycles
Your clear instruction and casual manner make learning blender much more enjoyable. I have always preferred written instruction for learning new things, but your method of teaching has changed my outlook, great work, and a big thank you from NYC
Hey, i am using Blender 2.77 and it stucks at the moment, where you first press alt+-a at 14:23.
In the preview there doesnt' appear any smoke and i tried to change some of the new features, but nothing works.
Can anyone please help me?
The color ramp won't apply for me. Anyone know why?
Those who can't get smoke to render: when creating a texture (around 16:40), under mapping, switch Coordinates to "Generated."
Hello . I just this week busy but it does not work. Can it be because the latter has been made tutorial with an older version? Use Blender 2.77.
LG Tom
Can you please use this to make a rocket ship launch on the newest version of blender. It would be really cool. Plus the blender updates make this tutorial difficult to use
what program are u using
Watching in 2016 like, "This wasn't made in cycles?"
For anyone who cannot get the smoke to render. The mistake is at [4:28]. Instead of setting the render to none (which will have nothing show up in the render) keep it on halo or choose one of the other render settings.
this works in cycles but cant be gpu rendered so it takes 4ever
I like your tutorial and your disclaimer 😀
Keep up your good work sir! 🙂
updated tut for this please?
This will be VERY useful for a dragon blowing fire.
spent 12 hours on it, can't get it to render.. tried everything… Cycles or Blender. Even though this is an older tutorial it should still work. I don't care for quick smoke.. I'm trying to make a swirling ball of plasma. Can anyone link me to any suggestions?
