Multiple flames from one mesh Is it possible to produce several small flames from different parts of the same mesh? I'm modelling a birthday cake with 42 candles, and in a weak moment I joined the cake and the candles into a single mesh (don't ask why, I honestly don't know). I created the candles by modelling one, which I used as a template object for a particle system, which I then converted into objects. Then, ¤#!&amp; knows why, I joined it all, including the cake, together into one glorious whole.

Could I put a smoke domain around each candle, or do I need to separate them? Or could I even accomplish it with a single domain?

I save pretty often, so although I have Blender keeping five backups, I can't recover the individual meshes (my /tmp is a tmpfs, and I've rebooted since the "accident", so no quit.blend either).
You can separate into loose parts like @gandalf3 said P &gt; Separate By Loose Parts then have multiple flames in one domain, like this:
