  Optical Flares not showing up render !!??

  Hi,

  I am working to a deadline on friday but cannot find a solution to an problem I am having with the plugin Optical Flares…

  I am working on a fairly big composition of a galaxy which a mixture of 2D and 3D objects. I have added two Optical Flare effects as they look really nice and give the animation some realism. However, when I go to render the comp, it only renders the Optical Flares and nothing else. Furthermore when I make Optical Flares invisible, everything is comes up on the render again. I tried precomposing just the optical flares in the composition, however this has the effect of one of the flares showing up and the other not!!??

  As you can imagine I am really confused.. Any help would be massively appreciated!

  Best

  Stanley

  Can you post a screenshot of your entire After Effects UI, including the viewer panel and the timeline, where you are having the problem?
