I was bored with the current explosion so I decided to change it.I could have posted a video to show how fluid it is but didn't, maybe later.

Looks nice :)
You edited the existing three (?) textures?

Thanks.
I replaced the original 25 textures with 33 new.

It looks much better live though.

Hehe jk, i probably will post them, after i finish other effects.

You can save default textures in TE.
And it seems to be limited to only 25 files( not counting alpha textures).

Yeah, I found the textures too now. Was hoping to change fire around, yet then I saw just how beautiful it was. It's just the animation loop and trying to make a 2-D shape 3-D that makes it look bad.

Looks awesome..I tried something similar in Aces High 1, using some of my smoke effects I made for AirWarrior. Will you have a download for us to try it out?

I will post a zip file with effects soon, but you will only be able to build them in your terrains.
