Fire simulation not working

hello, so i am working on something and i can’t seem to get fire to show, i did the quick effects smoke and changed it to fire. though when i do that, it makes a tiny bit of smoke, and no fire. i have already tried switching the cache type from modular to replay, but it still won’t show for me. is there any other way to fix this problem?

Have you checked the blackbody intensity setting in the smoke domains texture, And the flame smoke in the fluid sim settings.

No problem, I made that mistake the other weekend. I put lights in the smoke of my torches as a work around so I could get the tower picture finished.

oh my goodness XD, that is the exact same thing i did! i wanted to put fire in my entry for this weekend challenge, but since the fire was not working, i put light sources in my torches to help. sadly, it did not light up the scene as much as i wanted.
