- Easy: (insert LWPro trick here...)
-
- OK, if you have LWPro, check for the article on making heat waves or
- something like that from the RoboCop series.
-
- All you do is put a few low-intensity flares on top of each other. They
- add up to make a flare that is more intense and localized to one area.
- Try two, render, and increase as needed. That should do it for you...
