How about launch effects?

[Awass]

Plenty of talk about re-entry affect and re-entry heat, but what about launch effects? I think some nice puffs of steam (like a from a water sound supression system) and smoke on launch would look really cool, even if it was kinda pre-programmed to reduce particles and frame rate drop etc. Anything would be appreciated

And by pre-programmed, I mean that the launch effects would be like an animation rather than an interactive sort of effect, if need be.
