Pieces of Render missing (Element 3D)

[ezracohanim]

I'm creating a VR music experience for my senior design thesis using AE and Element 3D. It was all going fine, but once I added a 2nd instance of Element, pieces of my render started to not show up in the render, or the preview. I I changed the rendering modes to unified in my project, but it hasn't helped. Any ideas?

Here are some things I've tried so far that didn't work:

Create a nest of the main comp, and export from the nest 

Update drivers and all programs are up to date

Made backups, tried copying comp onto new project, checked to see if any models were missing

PC is restarted

500 GB free on my internal drive

Caches are cleared

HDD is defragged and optimized

My first minute still isn't showing even in render preview and the nest!

Here's my PC specs

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X

RTX3060Ti

16GB RAM, 1TB SSD

E3D was never designed with this kind of complexity in mind and hasn't received a major update in ages nor support for any advanced features like RTX. It's built around older OpenGL stuff with severe limitations and those simply now hit you. There's really not much more to say on the matter. If at all, you may try to create "passes" by not nesting the E3D instances and somehow montage together the comps as 2D layers, but apparently there would be limitations to that as well and the virtual environment itself using GPU functions clearly doesn't help, either. Sorry for the bad news, but again, you may simply be expecting too much here.
