Just unsure about this, but if I had footage that I wanted to apply particle effects to, when the camera moves around, will the particles stay in 2D mode or will they change with the camera? Do you use 3D mode when doing particles on 3D movement? Like say if I had somebody throwing a baseball, and the camera started out in side view, but then panned around to the front of the ball, and I wanted to apply flames to the ball. When the camera moves around to the front, do the particles disappear (because they're 2D) or move with it so it still looks like the ball is one fire?

The particles in Combustion iis 2D only, you need keep the particles oriented to the camera (little variations is possible)
