Looks to me like all that stuff in the beginning isn't assigned to a camera or a viewport. There is no Add Scene Event before comet glow, short comet tail glow, etc. In other words, those effects are not going anywhere - they are just floating in virtual limbo.

That will be $29.95.

No. Just one at the beginning. Effects after/under should render fine.

Please don't throw money. Are you trying to give me a paper cut? Just leave it on the coffee table on your way out.

*leaves the virtual invisible money on the coffee table*

ohh...okay...i see...i got it working now after fiddling with it and with some help from my teacher which i emailed yesterday...about time...anyways...i have some problems synchronizing all the effects now...this is the hard part...all i'm waiting now for is to let it render and see what the problem might be.

although i think i have an idea...overall whn its all done and all the scenes will be put together it'll be something very close to 2 min animation from a noobie:applause:

Well, I was going to offer advice but I can't. I clicked on your image link from my work computer and I get an Access Denied warning as the company's filtering device deems this to be a pornographic image.

Too funny.:)

Sorry, dude. I'll take a gander when I get home.

lol...me..porn..never:drool: ...lol...i'm rendering the scene right now and it looks like its going for a record time of exactly 3 hours..(~2:30) so far...hehe..

once its done i'll try to sort the video post and if u want send you my file so u can take a look at it closer...i tried to do my best at synchronizing the ffects so far and it looks okay...tell me if u want the max file:)

oops..look like i spoke too soon..its 3 hours and 5 minutes now..lol...

i think i know why. When the objects explode, the comp has to calculate where every "piece" is located after the explosion..and being quite a lot of pieces..werll..i can only imagine.

Is there an option to render ONLY whats in the viewport and leave the rest out....well..what i mean only what you view with the camera..leave the other things so you dont lose more time rendering.
