smoke effects on static objects at the screen , can anybody tell if You have any idea how to generate Real time moving smoke .
IF anyone has some sample program for that

I have this same problem!!!

This is usually done with particles. A lot of small quads (optimally all in one vertex array). The quads are facing the camera (billboards). Of course you can try volumetric stuff, but this is more complicated.
