There are custom settings built in, allowing you to tweak the fire in any way you see fit. This tool provides you with truly art direct-able real-time fire!

The tool instances lo-poly objects with a fire and smoke materials mapped to them. There is no smoke or fire simulation used so you will save on render time! Optimized for EEVEE it also works well in CYCLES provided the transparent passes are turned up in the light paths.

With over 15 years of experience working in Blender, I’ve had a front-row seat to the software’s incredible evolution, and I have to say, I love it! Over the years I’ve been fortunate enough to work professionally in the film industry, contributing to several Hollywood animated features and collaborating with some incredibly talented artists along the way. Being surrounded by people at the top of their craft has been both inspiring and humbling, and it’s shaped how I approach my own work. No matter the project, Blender is always part of my creative workflow. Over a decade ago, I started a YouTube channel exploring Blender for VFX, which connected me with the software’s incredibly generous community of artists. Learning from others and sharing what I’ve discovered along the way has been one of the most rewarding parts of the journey. It’s exciting to be part of a global community of Blender artists who are passionate about creating cool things and continually pushing the craft forward.
