Comment on Show HN: WebGL Fire Simulation

Parts of it look way too noisy, like TV static.

Yes, the actual burning fuel part is just random noise, which doesn't look very very good. I mention it as a possible imrpovement under "Better looking fuel".

I seem to remember reading a tutorial about making this effect back in the 90s (it was a great series by someone called "Denthor", or something like that). The bottom part of the effect was supposed to be hidden, only showing the flames I think.
