Lens Flare and layers

Hey
I have a scene with a lot of "Lens Flares" and Im have put them on a separate layer for a Flare Camera.
All my Lens Flares have "layer" Flare and my Flare Cam is only rendering this "Flare Layer"
I also have a player cam rendering the rest
But I cant seem to get the Flare cam to work... all my flares are rendered even if I turn the Flare Cam of, the deal is Flare Cam has a much smaller Clipping Plane distance than the Player Cam.
Is it so that Lens Flare is post processed on top of it all and therefore ignores layers?

Cheers

 

it depends on how you are compositing your scene but sounds like you may need to adjust the 'Clear Flags' on your various cameras as well as the 'Depth' order. i usually set my flare cam to 'Solid Color' (as well as place it on it's own layer), then my Main cam i set to 'Depth Only' unless you're using a skybox otherwise that gets set on your background cam. Actual 'Depth' values depend on how you want the final scene to appear so may have to experiment with that to find what works best.
