Hi everyone,
How would you do a thruster trail with LW octane?
I currently work on a ufo and would like to add the exausts like and trails to my machine.

I dont see how to achieve this in octane

He uses turbulence FD all rendered in octane

it's not the best approach but it can get the job done depending on what you need.
