Finally, after attempting to figure out how media works, I've managed to
make an explosion I'm fairly happy with.  It's obviously rather basic still,
as I've just done it as a media test this afternoon...

I've also used media to create green "pulses" that I thought looked cool,
and added a faint sort of "shock wave" sphere on the outer edges of the
explosion.  Nathan Kopp's lens flare include (as a Moray plugin) was also
used.

Yes, I know there's not *actually* any object being blown-up ;)

Feel free to check it out at

It was created using Moray 3.1 only (ok, so maybe that's cheating a little -
with it having such a good material editor ;).  If you're interested, the
.mdl can be found at:

Feedback is most welcome :)
