Hi, I read Masters particle tutorial, but I was wondering if it would be possible to make an explosion/effect that is a mushroom cloud. Sort of like WiC-type, but less dynamic.

It should be possible, but difficult. The closest thing I've ever seen was the PoA explosion.

In theory, you use two particle_systems, one which is the "stem" of the cloud, which is longer and taller, and then one which is the "head" of the cloud, which is shorter and wider, which is spawned higher than the stem.

It would definately take a lot of tweaking.
