Quote - True, Mazak - im watching a render that has another 15 hours on it - (51 lights - 40 of which have flares)

the flares show up as its being rendered.

i think if you change the intensity of the flares frame by frame (or several frames apart), it will then animate - but there are no actual settings to animate it.  Now that you brought it up, i wish there was - that would be neat =D

maybe a thought for Vue's development team =D

Yeah, I agree, I'm dumbfounded as to why I can't animate all data. It's just data. It's just a matter of the programmers giving us the option to animate it, not a big  coding issue. I don't get it.

If they want us to have as much creative control as possible, and thus get more use out of the program, I'd say they should take a very serious look at it. Else, honestly, I can't believe it.

In the meantime I can do it old school stop motion style I guess., hehe.

-Thanks all.
