<![CDATA[3d renderer? Where are you?]]>So I've just downloaded V2.1, and absolutely loving the mapping.

Only thing is, I no longer have a 3d renderer. I have a Virtual Stage which allows me to render particle systems, but it's outputting GPU rather than CPU so I can't use any basic blurs or glows... 
Is the virtual stage the new 3d renderer? If so, how is everyone working with it? 
I've downloaded the free frame plugins, but thought the 3d renderer was one of the standard tools.
Cheers guys 
Ed

It works much like the 3D renderer, but keeps everything in the GPU.

What is now considered best practise for applying effects from a 3D particle system? I noticed a drop to 15FPS while using the 3d renderer and a simple blur and glow.
