Aha! I've had this happen on the Velvet matter light rays and glint as well.

While I'm at it, I've had to abandon some lens flare effects, which randomly jump around a bit in between what should be a smooth transition from one keyframe to another. These same lens flares work fine in V8c

Ali, thanks for the "nod" on velvet matters . .

I'll try out the lens flares . .

Grazie

I've had this problem with Velvet matter as well, in the past, but have never been able to faithfully recreate it to submit a bug report to Velvet Matter when they weren't owned by Sony, now that they are, I am hoping someone will be able to figure out a way to repeat it so that it can be fixed.

Hi,

This is the same case as disappearing folders under PlugIn Manager. I have described this to SCS and sent them all logs from my computer. But they still can't recreate this error on their computers.

In my case there were there steps before total crash (reinstall off Vegas and all components) :

1) disappearing folders under PlugIn manager
2) disappearing effect window content (as You just have described, but not only with Velvet, also with NewBlue)
3) disappearing all presets and effect animation content in effects window.

Today I'm permanently in step 1) and I hope never see again step 2) and 3). In my case step 2) and 3) is not sensitive for reboot computer. You can only to fix it with full reinstall procedure.

As I have discussed it in other topic : this is registry issue. Mismatch between registration of plugin's unique number and location of it's contents.

Regards,
