Smoke effect: a rising column or puff of soft particles with a noise and density falloff shader.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# smoke — Soft Particle Smoke Plume

Smoke is the same particle pattern as fire — billboard quads emitted from a small disc, drifting upward — except the shader is dim, soft, low-emission, and tinted by depth instead of glowing. Slower spawn rate, longer lifetime, larger end scale. Pair it with `vfx-fire` for any campfire/torch/explosion. Used everywhere: chimney smoke, smoldering wreckage, smoke trails behind rockets, steam from vents, fog clouds.

## When to use

- "Smoke rising from the campfire."
- "Chimney smoke on the cottage."
- "Smoke trail behind the rocket."
- "Steam from the vent."
- "Smoke from the smoldering wreckage."
- "Fog cloud at the cave entrance."
- After spawning `vfx-fire`, smoke almost always belongs above it.

## When NOT to use

- The user wants flames, not smoke — use `vfx-fire`.
- The user wants a giant ground-hugging fog volume — use a `FogVolume` node with volumetric fog enabled in the `WorldEnvironment`, not a particle system. Particles don't scale to room-size fog.
- The user wants a 2D smoke effect — `canvas_item` shader, not this.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add summerengine/summer/vfx-smoke@sha256:9625887993979ebe

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.e9d6e70, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
