Although it's not a step by step tutorial,but it still easy to understand the idea and the logic of making the effects by your explanation and the results of comparison before the 10:08.When it comes to the fire work area part,it's so fast and having so much layers that I can't not understand how to do it and don't know why I should do these steps.Those steps are essential to make the effects more real,so please,pay more attentions on explaining this part.Hearing you prepare to remake this tutorial is really like a big gift to me.And by the way,I am searching the after effects tutorial of making ghost rider's firing-skull head,so I'm trying to use your tutorial to make it.

Tileable flame (or any techniques would be hugely helpful for me. I created one, but a lot of the techniques you use here don't work quite as well. A lot of the masks you use make it impossible to tile and when I'm modeling, a candle flame won't work nearly as well when I'm making a fireball mesh that's cylindrical. Wondering if you have any ideas how to approach that instead or if you would be interested in taking on the challenge. Your vids have been extremely helpful. Thank you very much for your time!

Make sure that your displacement map is pre-composed. Make sure you choose the displacement map layer in the displacement map effect. Make sure that the adjustment layer that your displacement map effect is on, is above the layers you are attempting to displace. Crank up the values for the horizontal displacement. It should work.
