I am think on upgrading to AE 6 Pro. But I was curious from anyone here who uses AE and some kind of 3d software. I have heard that AE will import 3d scenes directly. Is this true? And if so does hold information like volumetrics and lighting?

I appreciate any insight… I am but a novice at AE so I dont know its capabilities.
