Hey guys, I’m wondering if anyone has ever done a flash effect maybe that’s dynamic and not keyframed/tweened? I was going to do it by simulating fire in Combustion/AfterFX but a sequence of PNGs will really cut down on performance and severely UP the filesize.

Does anyone have an idea on how to go about doing this? Any help and suggestion will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
