Under the lighting tab, Bonfire, placed beneath the floor.

How do u place it below the floor without stacking? I tried a couple of things but neither worked. First, I tried raising a floor tile above the bonfire and yes it did give the illusion that smoke was coming from the floor but the color and texture were wrong. Is there a way to change that? Then I tried lining up some reddish cabinets on top of the bonfire and had similar results. It looked more like a burning wooden floor instead of lava. Is it a discontinued floor texture? Is it something they crafted?
It's most likely the Miyuki Gravel floor texture set to a bright red primary and secondary color. You raise the floor up one then spin the camera so you can see the ceiling through the floor then place the bonfire.
It's not accurate unless you place items as markers that can't be stacked on, which'll help you pinpoint where the bonfire will land. Hope that helps!
You can drop one floor section to the lowest level and place the object on that lowered floor. Then "slide" the object to under the raised floor area where you want it.
The tricky part is that if the anchor point of the object even grazes the top of the floor there, it will pop up to that area's raised floor height. You have to put your camera at a very low angle, or better yet look up from below the base, so you don't contact the top of the raised floor even for a moment.

I visited a base on Pinnacle called Animosity and found this room. I can't for the life of me figure out how they made it. The lava itself looks like just red cobblestone but how did they make the smoke? It's an older VG and from what my friend said I don't think it's gotten much use for a long time so I think we can rule out stacking. Can anyone explain what they did?
