I don't want to create fire, I want to create = the look that fire has on objects: the wiggly shadows and highlights. =  I'm guessing I could wiggle the light position, point of interest = and add in some fractal noise or use real fire video and projection = mapping.  

I was just hoping not to have = to re-invent the wheel in case somebody has already developed a working = method that they'd = share.

Thanks,
Jim

So, I guess practical fire isn't an option, such as = some of the Andrew Kramer stock fire stuff?  I know there are a = couple of them that look just like a normal camp fire and are real of = course.
