"3D Studio MAX - Fire effects"

I'm trying to make a cool 3D movie, but I need to make fire effects. I've tried combustion but that doesn't really do the trick. I'm looking for a way of making realistic looking fire, preferably with some sort of particle tool. I've tried things like spray and super spray, but they just don't look fiery enough. Anybody got any clues? Cheers

Unbelievable, Does NOBODY know how to create fire effects?

What app are you using? Particle rendering isn't easy to explain in a forum. It's been a while since I rendered Fire, but I used an atmospheric plugin in Maya for doing so...

I need it for studio MAX 3.1.
