  Mettle Skybox V2 Compose odd behaviour…..

  Hey everyone. Not sure if this is the right place but did notice a few other people asking for advice on the fantastic skybox software.

  Been using composer for a few days and suddenly something very strange is happening. Any thought would be hugely appreciatoed.

  I’m working in a 3d skybox composer comp. Everything works fine – I can add graphics – look around – as I would expect. I have a 2d comp as well where I have just masked the rig.

  When in the Edit 1 2d comp and I click Open Output – nothing happens. If I manually go to the Output comp the mask is there and the rig is gone. Everything as it should be.

  However – when in edit 2 (the 3d comp) I can see everything fine and I can look around, add graphics in 3d etc. But when I click Open Output nothing happens, and when I manually go to the Output comp – none of the 3D graphics are there.

  Opening the Skybox Conversion comp reveals the 2 edit layers. Double clicking the Edit 1 comp takes me to the correct Edit 1 comp with the rig mask.

  Double clicking the Edit 2 comp takes me to another comp called Skybox Conversion – which is empty.

  Double clicking that takes me to another comp called Project Name (SkyBoxV2 Edit2) (3D) (combined) – which is empty.

  Output comp resolution 4320 x 2160
  Edit 1 (2D) resolution 4320 x 2160
  Edit 2 (3D) resolution 1920 x 1080
  (SkyBoxV2 Edit2) (3D) (combined) resolution – 4320 x 3240

  This is worrying as there is a whole day of adding graphics that I can’t render out.

  Any thoughts. I’m on a tight deadline ☹️????????

  Thanks

  Casey
