Title: candle
Post by: celmar on 2024-09-25, 17:21:04
Hello! I have a very complex animation, a heavy scene... There are candles, and I don't really want to weigh it down by putting a shot with an animated flame... I tried a visible corona light, but it really makes the ball too sharp... would anyone have a suggestion? thank you!!!

I have faked this in the past by modeling a simple Flame shape from a flat plane/polygon and used a luminous texture.  Lots of easy ways to lightly animate this if you need a flicker or movement.

Hello @celmar,

Are you able to share your scene project and the expected result with us?
Including some screenshots for the expected result will make things easier to understand.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Have an amazing day/evening.
