    Optical Flares (VC) not showing up in main comp.

    Posted by Christian Vilderman on March 17, 2015 at 4:20 pm

    Hi

    I have tracked scene with 3d camera tracker. I have tracked a flare into the scene and its perfect. However now I have precomped it does not show up. Everything else is perfect. My flare layer is 3D. Does that have something to do with it?

    Been meaning to ask this for ages. I have googled as well but cant find anything similar

    Thanks
    Christian

    Did you accidentally set your flare layer as a guide layer [link]?

    If not, please post some screenshots showing your UI and the problem for both the main comp and the precomp.
