Emit smoke along a mesh portion

[Fabrice]

Hello Fabrice,

You can do that with FumeFX 6 (now in open beta) in several ways by using particles.
For direct control next beta 10 we wil add FumeFX Geom Source option to emit only from faces with certain Material ID.
If you change Material ID during the animation, that would be another solution without going into the NodeWorks.

Hi Kresimir,

What do you mean by "using particle"?

I guess (but I'm not sure) I could already use tyflow to generate particles on selected areas of the meshe's surface and then use those particles as an emiter for fumefx 5 right?
Would it be better (or simpler) in fumefx 6?
