Smoke Effect Issues

[variant]

Hi,

Recently I made a nice looking smoke effect for a game I've been working on, however I do have a problem with it, the effect itself uses like 150+ objects and I need it to be spawned in multiple places. Go to this thread to get to the effect. I need a more efficient way to produce this effect.

Use fewer objects but have them larger and scale them down to up and it will create the desired effect. I'll make an example in a bit.

Oh, thanks.

That's a lot better, you actually used a picture of smoke to make it, I'll apply this concept to what I am doing and I'll tell you if it works.

It's good, but it's still takes up some space. Is their an even more efficient way to do the smoke? And, can I just copy the events I don't want to rewrite the events .

-Thanks, Variant
