I'm getting really frustrated with LenZFX and I'm really hoping someone can help me out. I've got a space scene with an earth, sun and moon. I need tohave a slight glow around the earth and was using aura – by object/edge. For the sun I've got a flare assigned to an omni light. Well, it _was_ working last night, I'm not sure how or why but it was. Lenzfx seems very erratic to me in how it works. For my sun, sometimes the flare will appear where the light is on frame 0. Even with move in scene turned on this is happening. And now my aura will not appear at all. I'm using v1.3 of LenZFX. In VP, last night, I had 4 entries. 1st was KF scene, next was LZstacker, then the inactive aura, and inactive flare. And like I said, it was working. Then I remembered stars and added 2 more entries at the top of the queue. Stars 3 and YG's hilite. I rendered the exact same frame and my earth no longer had a glow and the sun was coming from the position of the omni at frame 0. I deleted the stars and hilite with no sucess – same thing. So I deleted all the entries and started over. Same thing. This morning I added just a KF scene and my aura to the earth. No go. No glow. I sure hope the new version fixes this garbage. Anyone have any ideas? DM
