Hi David… Guess I was a little harsh on you guys… But I had just spent a whole afternoon trying to put an "Aura" on a particular object. It doesn't work. When I called your customer support line, I talked to a guy who was very nice and helpful, but what he told me to do didn't work. Finally, in frustration, I called a friend who has been working with LenZFX for quite a while, and explained the problem. His reply was something like: "Oh. You can't use Aura. It doesn't work." This added to my suspicion that there is in fact a "bug" in the LenZFX program, at least as far as the "Aura" module is concerned. I hope I am wrong, because I would love to be able to use this part of the package. It is, in fact, mostly the reason we purchased the package in the first place. Maybe you'll have an idea about how to get around the problem… The problem is this: When I assign an object to glow in the "Aura" module, sometimes it glows and sometimes it doesn't. This is especially apparant when rendering a flic, because the object will glow on some frames and not on others. I understand there is a problem with keyframer information being passed to the LenZFX module, but this just seems to not work. Any ideas? Thanks for the help… Matthew Samia P.S. Sorry for cuasing such a stir…
