Question on Explosion Tut

Hi all,
Newbie first post here. Great site! And starting out in Maya, considering buying some points. But I have a question...one of the tutorials I would like to download is the "Explosions for VFX"...I am wondering if VXF is something special (plug-in, program, etc) that you need to reproduce the tut in Maya. If it just stands for "video FX" and no special program required, then please accept my humble apology for being such a newbie.user added image Thanks.

I have done the Explosion tutorials and they are great. I learned a lot from them about dynamics. The VFX just stands for Visual Effects, and is not a special plug-in or program. I did this tutorial in Maya 4.5, and it worked just fine. Have fun!!

Tim
