Atmospheric gizmo on reference object?

d4rk3lf 109 posts05 Dec 2008Hey there fellas.
I am learning now some tricks with Afterburn combustion (no Afterburn with particles, but just combustion with volume fog), and so far I think I have very interesting results. It's working the same way like volume fire that is integrated within 3DS Max, but it has much more options, and more importantly, you can instance any 3D procedural map for a density, which is great!
Here is my first test:

(if somebody want, I can give you a scene (it's created in max 7, with afterburn 3.1))
I think I will play all night with it.
Now, the problem is that I can use this only on atmospheric gizmo (box, cylinder or sphere), but I want to know is there any possible way (plugin, script, just anything) that I can use volume of some instanced object. That could lead to some great possibilities (burning letters, towers, characters... etc).
I am buying beer as much as you can drink for any solution. -
07 Dec 2008did someone say Beer..............I have AB 4 I just read all the help under Combustion Parameters rollout, I didn't see anything under Gizmos/Daemons and lights, is does have "Globals group of controls".........oh heck.......heres what it says......Do I still get the BEER??

d4rk3lf 109 posts08 Dec 2008You can get the beer, but I think your post doesn't answers on my question (or I am missing something).
I know about options in afterburn combustion, but those are options only for some detailing within gizmo (box, sphere or cylinder). I need something like object based deflector, but to be Gizmo (object based gizmo).
Somebody should write a plugin or script for this.
Anyway, thanks for trying to help me. -
08 Dec 2008do you mean you want a defector that interacts with combution.........hmm can you spcewarp a defector to combution..........I'll take the beer.........
