This page is a starting point to generate your fire effect quickly with many predefined settings. You can pick any of the following patterns and make minor adjustments to suit your design needs. The following fire pattern is generated at 240 by 80 pixels with the remaining parameters set at their default values. You can regenerate this fire pattern by clicking on the image below to fill the previous page with the appropriate values.

The fire pattern can be sharper or blurrier depending on the blur filter width and height. A small value makes the fire look sharp. The following setting shows a sharper fire pattern at the blur filter width of 2 instead of the default value of 4 pixels. The size of the blur filter should be multiple of 2 for best performance.

The following setting shows a soft fire pattern by setting the blur filter width at a large value of 8 instead of the default value of 4 pixels.

The following setting shows a very different fire pattern by setting the blur filter width and height both at 4 pixels instead of the default values.

The horizontal density is used to make denser white flame when generating the fire at large resolution. The following setting has a value of 3 to create denser and whiter flame. All other parameters are set at their default values.

The white volume setting can be used together with the horizontal density to create a fire pattern appear to be extinguished. The following setting has the horizontal density and white volume set at 3 and 8, respectively.

The fire pattern can be made smaller than the specified image size by changing the percentage of the flame width. The flame height is indirectly controlled by other parameters such as blur, white volume, vertical offset, etc. The following setting has the flame width set at 75% of the image size. All other parameters are set at their default values. Note that at reduced width setting, the fire pattern appears denser.

The vertical white setting adds more saturation white color to the flames. The following setting has vertical white setting at 8. All other parameters are set at their default values. This parameter is useful to add saturation to exotic fire color.

You can create exotic fire patterns easily with your choice of color hue. The following setting picks a strong bluish hue for its fire color. The hue increment and luminosity increment can be used to make subtle hue changes to the standard fire color.

Due to the use of blur filters, the generated image is often larger than the specified width and height of the image. At certain setting, the artifacts of the blur filters may be visible and appear as small random stripes at the bottom of the generated image. This vertical offset can reposition the generated image so that these artifacts are not visible. The following setting sets a vertical offset at -18 to hide the artifacts when the vertical blur size is set at 32 pixels. The default value of vertical offset of 0 reveals these artifacts.
