I used these settings :
Column Length : 98.12
Flame Width : 30
Waver : 100
Flame Intensity : 95
Soften Edges : 50
Make sure the "Start From Bottom" box is checked
If your happy with the results, save as frame 1 or however you'd like
4. Click "Undo" once and repeat, simply hit "Random Speed" each time you make a new frame.
You should make 3-6 frames total
Once completed, you are ready to add them to your animation shop wizard.
5. Open Animation shop and click "Animation Wizard"
Open all of your frames in the wizard
Press Play
I used frame speed 25
If you are happy with the results, save and your done!
