Thanks for the response. What I am getting is that CC ParticleWorld responds to its internal camera, but not to a comp camera. So I can move around the particles, using the camera that is in the effect. However, the 3d Particles are not actually coming off the layer. So for example if I take a camera and position it on the y axis looking at the layer-so the layer is a 2d plane in the in the middle of the comp- no paricles are coming off the layer. I’d like to have it so that I could put some text by the particles and have some particles spray in front, and some behind.
Trapcode particular seems to work the same way. Perhaps Im not working it right, but this seems to be what is happening to me. Thank you for the help, if any one has any further advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Much thanks again, John
