Everything you need to create great flares.
Real-Time
See every change immediately in Blender's viewport.
No Compositor
Build and control the flare directly in your scene.
No Baking
Change, animate and refine your effects without baking.
Eevee + Cycles
Designed to work directly with both render engines.
Add a flare in just 3 clicks.
Choose a preset, place your flare and start shaping it. Flared2 is designed to make sophisticated lens effects fast to create, even when you need several flares in the same scene.
Your flare reacts to the scene.
Flared2 can detect obstacles between the light source and the camera, allowing the flare to respond naturally to objects in the scene.
No compositor. No problem.
Flared2 works directly in the viewport in both Eevee and Cycles. Lights outside the camera view can still influence the effect, creating a more natural relationship between the flare and the scene.

Start with presets. Go anywhere.
Flared2 includes a curated collection of cinematic, realistic, sci-fi, surreal and stylized flares. Use them as they are, or build completely new looks from scratch.
Powerful, not complicated.
Flared2 exposes the controls that matter while keeping the underlying procedural system out of your way. You get extensive creative control without having to build the effect yourself.
Fits into your existing workflow.
Render your flares separately and continue compositing in the software you already use. Flared2 is designed to complement your workflow, not replace it.
Fully procedural. Artist friendly.
Flared2 is procedural at its core, but you don't need to work directly with its technical complexity. The interface gives you the controls needed to create the result you want quickly.
