Any way to use prerendered vfx? Like particle effects in sfm

I would want to use something like particle effects from sfm, but cant really find anything online about this.
Here’s an example:


The only two ways i can think of is doing something with png images, or complex shader graphs.

I haven’t tried it …perhaps the SFM Plug-in from RedXEye…can help process them…
Is that screen fx from SFM available anywhere…I would be interested in seeing what could be done with them…’
I think I have something around here ( muzzle flash ) that I can play around with…I’ll have to find it again…

I have been using VFX from Action VFX but they are video files and work fine as an image as a plane and also used in Natron as a post effect…

Grab free VDB’s here…

Watch a quick tutorial on setting up VDB’s…

There are also faked fire shaders…
