In this video tutorial for 3ds max we'll start a new series cycle to talk about fire with FumeFX. We have to start
from simple effects as a flamethrower to understand well how it works to be able to use it for more complex scenes in the near future in new advanced tutorials. In the video we are releasing today we'll prepare a simple scene setup to create an environment where we can use our flamethrower. To create the flame "laucher" we'll use simple primitives and a simple animation rig to control it in a randomic way. We'll add a preliminary PFlow setup to control the fire presence and interaction with the environment using deflectors and forces. Final step will be a preliminary FumeFX setup able to control in a simple way the fire using the particles. In Part 2 we'll prepare final animation scene with hi quality output.

In this 10 part series, I introduce you to the new character BC Baker and how his rig works, including shape keys and drivers. We look into the different tools for animation in Blender, namely the Action Editor, Pose Library, and Non-Linear Action (NLA) editor.
