Track Optical Flares to 3D Objects exported from C4D

[Cassius Marques]

try to replace your spheres and cubes (though i can’t see them(edges?)) with lights, export that with “include 3d data” checked. see if C4D sends to AE the light’s positions… then on AE switch optical flares to track lights.

I haven’t tried that, but if you can provide feedback I’m sure we will find something out.

Thanks, that seems like the way to go, now I just need to figure out how to replace each one of the spheres!

I used the C4D xsSwitch script to replace all the spheres with lights, brought into After Effects et Viola!
