Scene from character animator into adobe after effects as a vector

Hello,

I'm havig trouble importing my scene from character aimator into adobe after effects as a vector. I made my puppet on illustrator the made sure to check the box to make him a vector in character animator. Perhaps it is the way I am importing my scene of the puppet into Affter Effects that is the problem.

Most tutorials on youtube have taught me to make the scene from character animator into a bunch of PNG pics and import it like this.

But when I try to copy them I do not have the same "New Comp from Character animator recording" option that they do. Here is the options I get.

So instead I simply drag my scene from character animator into affter effect but when I do this I have no option to check the little box to make it seen as vectors:

I am able to check this vector box when I import something directly from illustrator such as a background. But I can't seem to import something from character animator as a vector since I can't check that box.

Any help would be much appriciated.
