Best way to make a Rocket Plume

Hey developers! I had a question.

I am making a rocket with F-1 engines, and I need to have a flame with smoke on ignition and liftoff.

They are the engines now.

I would like it to look somewhat like that.

Thanks,

I would suggest using a ParticleEmitter and creating some of your own custom plume exhaust textures.

How would I make it so that it goes down and to the side, like in the image?

That is not possible with a particle emitter, however a workaround could be to have multiple emitters facing different directions to give it the effect.

use a particle emitter and replace the sparkles in the texture to smoke u can put the light emission up and make a color gradient. press size and 3 dots should show up next to it press them and then u can change the size to make it go from small to big
