yep. take a look at the smoke and fire in sh5. Its looks that good, cause its an animated texture. So imagine a small video clip, that runs instead of just one image, which is used in a particle system. Normally the particle controller of the fire just using one image and produces different types of this image in size and speed. so it looks like fire. if you use an animated texture, it lets you create a much more real looking fire as it looks like a small video (4 different pics) of a real fire running in a loop, "born" by a particle generator.
