Back Thats odd. I opened up a tag file series in the fx tree a month or so ago and it came up fine. I played around with them and was quite happy. But I recall a few weeks ago someone (Matt Lind? Possibly?) said there is a problem with them in that the tag IDs may switch part way through your animation... making them useless except for stills. I've not tried this out yet myself.
