The Quest for Realistic Fire in Blender (pt1)

For a week, I was trying to make realistic fire in Blender. This is the first animated sequence I've made. As far as I know, this is the first time that anyone has done anything like this. Yeah! I'm being original! Go me!

WHAT THE --- over 4000 views? Okay, I'll make a tutorial over summer! I promise! Wow.

@sripavanv billboard particles and nodes

i think this is maybe the best flame effect i have seen in blender so far. others are usually just orange and red smoke, these are flames

good job looking forward to the final product

is that diffraction i see?

[sripavanv]

nice work. a very smooth continuous flame. i have the same question as jorydasilva, is this done using fluid animation or just with the physics buttons and particles.
