Hey everyone, i was wondering how to make faces of an object to be on fire but not the whole object. Thanks chris

If you want it quick and dirty, I think you can just select faces and apply the Create Fire option from the dynamics module. It should only apply to the selection.

Hmm, well, another way would be to create a volume emitter that emits over a specific area and parent that to the object.

Another way would be to create a copy of the geometry you want fire to come from, emit from that and make it invisible and parented to the original object.
