Unable to Render Simulations made with the Bifrost Graph Editor

There must be a simple solution to my problem. I finished making a simulation with the Bifrost Graph Editor and now I simply want to render what I have made using Arnold. When I attempt to render the scene, none of the Bifrost elements appear at all. Likewise, if I try rendering any of the pre-made examples in the Bifrost Browser, they also do not show up in Arnold at all.
 
What does work for me, is the Bifrost Fluids. I can make an aero or liquid simulation without any problems, but anything created in the Graph Editor fails to appear in Arnold.
 
I recently reinstalled Maya 2019 and it is in its default settings. I am using the latest Arnold 4.0.4. In the tutorials I have watched, the people creating the videos don't seem to have any issue with rendering. I have to assume this is a common issue, but haven't found anything online to addressing my particular issues. 

Thank you for any insight into fixing this.

Its a separat download.

Make sure all bifrost plugins are loaded.

That's the solution, thank you. I updated Arnold and re-installed Maya, but didn't think to update Bifrost. Thank you

My bifrost is the latest version, maya2018, and the Arnold version is 3.2.2. I also encountered the same problem and cannot render the content made in bifrost.

I struggled with the same issue. This works for me too.

Thank you all.
