Earns a place in the superhive library for pairing Geometry Nodes flame generation with a curve drawing workflow and support for both render engines.
Flame Creator is a procedural flame generator for Blender, built on Geometry Nodes. It adds flames to any mesh object in one click, or lets you draw flame curves directly with a curve drawing tool. Flame size and height are adjustable, and vertex group masking gives control over where flames sit on a surface.
Beyond the flames, the addon produces particle sparks, volumetric smoke and a 2D smoke effect, and can add burn marks to the surface. Colours are customizable, and the effect renders in both EEVEE and Cycles. For EEVEE Next in Blender 4.2 and later, some tweaking will likely be necessary to match the same colours and brightness.
Flame Creator lists compatibility with Blender 3.6 through 5.0 and is distributed under the GPL license. Documentation is available for details. It has been published for over two years.
Flame Creator is best for blender artists adding procedural flames, smoke, sparks or burn marks to mesh objects or drawn curves.
Flame Creator is completely free to download and use.
Flame Creator lists compatibility with Blender versions 3.6 through 5.0, covering a wide span of releases. It renders in both Cycles and EEVEE. If you're working in EEVEE Next in Blender 4.2 or later, expect to do some tweaking to match the same colours and brightness, as the developer notes for that engine. Documentation is available for details, so checking your exact Blender version against the developer's page before installing is worth the moment it takes.
Flame Creator works with both EEVEE and Cycles render engines, so you can build flames in either. One caveat applies to EEVEE Next in Blender 4.2 and above: some tweaking will likely be necessary to match the same colours and brightness. The colours themselves are customizable within the addon, and the documentation covers the details. For most setups you can pick the engine that suits your scene and adjust the settings from there to get the look you're after.
Flame Creator is listed as free in this catalog, and it is distributed under the GPL license. Pricing and licensing terms can change over time, so check the developer's page on Animander for the current details before you download it. The addon has been published for over two years, and documentation is available for details once you have it installed. For the most accurate and up-to-date licensing information, the developer's own page is the place to confirm.
