I'm not all that familiar with P6 yet, having just upgraded from P4 (huge difference between the two). For my next animated CG project, I want a scene where the character ventures outside into a sandstorm. Is there a way to generate or fake a realistic (and animated) sandstorm in P6? I also have access to Max 8 at my art school, but I won't have any 3DS Max classes until next year so I'm really only familiar with some of its interface and basic functions... but I will use it to generate the sandstorm if I can find an easy tutorial to follow.

I would really appreciate any help you guys can give me. I want this next project to visually blow my other one out of the water, which I spent a year on with P4 (and like 5 other programs for Post work). Thanks!
