@LuxXeon Thanks,
Since finishing My 93 minute feature length animated film "Galactus Rising" back in April, I was finally able to Migrate away from my ancient Mac OS computer ,Where I had My old C4D & Adobe CS suite 3 with After Effects
One of the things I feared I would sorely miss, was My old (Pre-subscription) After Effects CS with the Optical flares plugin.
Thankfully I discovered the free finishing suite from Black Magic Design Davinci Resolve 16 where I now do All of my nonlinear video editing,sound processing Color grading and VFX compositing.
It has a fairly large built in library of effects in fact the particle and muzzle flashes in the 20 second "spartan assault" clip were added with the Davinci node based fusion compositor
There is a paid version that has more effects & tools for 4-8K video production etc.
but I find the free version more than enough for my current needs.
