Hello
Am not a newbie but when it comes to using the above AT Plugin I am !!

I have the PDF which comes with the download and I refer to the section
"TYPICAL WORKFLOW"
I have followed to the letter all stages that are mentioned here.
And yes can scroll the AT bar and see my jpg become animated.... fine.
Hit create and it seems to jog through the render process.
Although a path was selected to save to I cannot find a thing FULL STOP !!

Now please what is supposed to happen from the stage I mention here.

I have my DAZ Timeline set up all items are posed the lights are on and I want to add a animated flame to a metal barrel prop.

I add a primitive plane to just inside the top of the barrel .......correct?
I then go through the stages in WORKFLOW chooseing the primitive plane as the surface to which the animated jpg is to be applied to......correct?
Then hit create .............correct..........what is now supposed to happen ?

After AT has done its thing do I then do a normal Daz render for this AT to intergrate with the Daz timeline ?

Have lost the plot on this, it all seemed so easy . What on earth am I doing wrong. When I do a DAZ timeline render I get just the plane primitive stuck into the barrell . No sign of any Flames at all !!

Thanks for any help you can offer.
