Optical Flares does not appear!
Hey everyone !
I’m new on creativecow.net and i hope to get some help in my problem with Optical Flare from Videocopilot.
When OF is applied to a layer, black solid layer, nothing happens in my Composition window, no lens flare. I set the Render Mode to Transparent, all options, and nothing. In options of the OF, i see the lens flare, i can adjust all properties like i want, but in my Composition windows nothing happens.So, if anyone can help me, i would appreciate.
PS: I reinstalled After Effects, and still nothing.

Is the little ‘fx’ on/off toggle box showing up by the words ‘Optical Flares’ in the Effects Panel?

Hmm…from the screenshot I can’t see any problem. Are you running CS5? The video copilot forums has other people with what sounds like the same problem using CS5.

yes, i’m working in cs5 and before to reinstall my windows the plugin works very good. i installed on another PC, and it didn’t work. i think the plugin is problem. very strange. on the forum I found someone who had the same problem, but with no happy ending :). I think i will fix it. Thanks for your time. I’ll come up with a solution.

Hey! Honestly i’m trying to remember how i fixed that problem. I’m 99% sure that was a problem with my plugin. I wanted to copy the plugin to my pc, from another pc. I hope it does make sense for you.

I have the same problem. Anybody has an idea on how to fix it? THX!

Hey !
I wish I can remember how I fixed the problem with OF, but I can’t. I think I deleted the OF from AE Plugins folder, and I tried again to install it. Before that AE was re-installed, but the OF still didn’t work.
Just remove your OF and re-install it again, maybe delete all your AE cache.
Sorry I can’t remember. Good luck!
