After Effects

Hey, so awhile ago I had this problem on BCC with one effect that didn't work but every other effect works just fine. I was told to update my BCC so I finally did (I used to use bcc 2019 with after effects 2021, everything worked just fine other than one effect; BCC LED) I updated to BCC 2021 to match my program but now everytime I use an effect I get this message: "after effects effect ___ has global outflags mismatch. code glags are 0 and pipl flags are 8c01488" (only one example) and it happens with every effect now.  And now all my videos have a giant red X over them when I try and add the effect? What's going on? Is it even possible to revert back to bcc 2019 because it worked better than this.

Tengo un error que ya se posteo en estos foros y algunos de reddit hace unos años, pero no encuentro solución y simplemente no puedo utilizar el scriptAqui dejo el codigo junto algunas capturas de lo que me sale: /////AFPHairRig//////if(thisComp.layer('MASTER_HR_controller').effect('TurnOffHairRig')('Checkbox') == false){pointFromParent= 4;refLayer = thisLayer;pos = refLayer.effect('Delay')('Slider')*(pointFromParent/8);fallOffLoc = (pointFromParent-1)/4;amp = refLayer.effect('Amp')('Slider')*refLayer.effect('FallOff')('Slider').valueAtTime(fallOffLoc)*thisComp.layer('MASTER_HR_controller').effect('masterFallOff')('Slider').valueAtTime(fallOffLoc)*comp('GLOBAL_HR_controller').layer('GLOBAL_HR_controller').effect('globalFallOff')('Slider').valueAtTime(fallOffLoc);freq = refLayer.effect('Freq')('Slider');masterFreq = thisComp.layer('MASTER_HR_controller').effect('masterFreq')('Slider');globalFreq = comp('GLOBAL_HR_controller').layer('GLOBAL_HR_controller').effect('globalFreq')('Slid

I always run out of RAM while rotoscoping in After Effects. I'm having 13th gen Intel i7 HX processor with 1TB SSD, 16GB RAM and 6GB RTX 4050 GPU. I tried everything from cleaning cache to allocating maximum RAM. Why I'm facing this? Somebody help me out please.

I have a line of text animating in using 'fade up words' and would like to change the opacity to 0% a few seconds later.I tried adding the 'fade up words' effect to the text, and then adding the add > opacity, which created an 'Animator 2', but when I added 100% opacity and then faded it to 0% later, the 100% opacity would override the 'Animator 1' 'fade up words' effect.

I have a 20 second video which was recorded over 72hrs and need to add a clock to it, counting up to 72hrs. I have tried to offset the Timecode but can't figure out how to actually make it count up faster than normal time. Is there a way to do this in Premier or After Effects? Thanks

Hi!Can someone please tell me why After Effects tutorials are no longer in order?I completed them a long time ago and now want to refer them to someone, but to my surprise, the tutorials are all over the place. Even when I select "Beginner," they don't start with the basics (like an introduction to the interface, creating compositions, etc.).https://creativecloud.adobe.com/cc/learn/app/after-effects?skillLevel=beginnerIs there a way to fix this?Thank you!Chris.

Hello everyone, my AE gives a message about an unsupported file format when trying to import a 360 video shot on X4. The files have the extensions *.insv and *.irv. Moreover, on YouTube, I see videos in which people work with such files in AE. Has AE 2023 stopped supporting such files?

Hello, as of today I have not been able to quit After Effects-the menu option is grayed out. I am running 24.5.0. I am using AE with Premiere, dynamically linking to comps. Has something changed?  

I have a field of symbols of varying opacities and sizes (over 100). I need to animate all of them moving up and out of view at different speeds. I used null objects and animated them going from below the stage to above the stage and added a loopOut(type="continue") expression to the position property. The problem is that the symbols leave the stage. Ideally, the symbols should cycle back from the bottom and to the top. I'm not sure how to get that to work. loopOut(type="cycle") does that, but the symbols appear back where they started. Essentially, it should just be a continuous loop for every symbol. I was thinking a particle effect might help, but there are 2 symbols and they vary a bit. Any suggestions?

Hi All, I am attempting to streamline my rendering process since I make make many renders a day, sometimes in batches from a single AE Project, and manually selecting output destinations is tedious. I have created a custom "File Name and Location Template", saved it, and set it to default, however, when I add to the render queue, the output destination is always "not yet specified", despite me having set my custom template to default. In fact, no matter what Template I set to default (even the stock ones), every comp's output destination is "not yet specified". Can someone assist me with this? Thanks!

I dont know what i am doing wrong. but i keep getting this error in this same spot and clip every time

Hey guys, I really don't know what to do. I bought new laptop for 1000€ only for AE. I couldn't afford anymore. It is MSI thin gf63 i7 12gen, rtx 4060, 16 GB ram, 500 SSD and my AE is so so slow. I updated everything, I searched all over internet and I don't know what is problem. I know that AE is powerful but I can't believe that this laptop can function properly with it. I need to do everything in quarter preview and when I use rotobrush and plugins like deep glow.. it is dieing. I am really dissapointed and don't know what to do. My friend have PC with rtx 3060 i think with ryzen processor (lower specs than my laptop) and he doesn't have big problems..do you know soultion? I would be so so thankful.

After Effects being insanely buggy - I though possibly due a project being created on PC and switched to Mac. But then I checked a project that was fine last week and that is not working now either.I have a new M2 Max Mac running the latest AE.All yesterday bugs kept creeping in such as:unable to highlight layers. AE auto selecting layers when I move past them.unable to highlight or move keframes.unable to change parameters on plugins.at one point the i renamed a comp and that neame turned up in a plugin parameter.The person I am working with opened the same file on his PC and it works fine,.

I reached out to adobe's support team via the "Contact Us" link on this website that connects you with a chat agent. I was wondering how to fix an issue where my computer's volume will automatically turn up when I open adobe applications. After asking the usual unnecessary questions, the chat agent, "Syed", suggested that he could access my computer remotely to further assist me. I respectfully declined, to which he said "Okay. Why don't you try to reinstall the apps?" When I was responding to this a command prompt popped up on my screen and I lost control of my computer entirely. Everything was highlighted in blue and my applications were being opened as well as the windows start tab. I immediately shut down my system, rebooted, and wrote this thread. I am deeply disturbed by this and feel extremely violated. Will definetely not be contacting adobe support again, I'm even paranoid to be writing on this thread. I hope that this chat agent is found and let go for this as well as a memo

Hi, I could not open my After Effects. The message below always pops up when I try to open AE. Can someone help me please? Many thanks in advance. I've tried uninstalling the app and re-downloading it. 

I recently started using After Effects, and one of the first things I noticed when I was doing so was that the menu bar and when exporting the menus were not the consistant dark theme, I'm not sure if this is a bug but I have not found any settings in the preferences that fix this. I am on a 2020 MBP with an M1 and have 16 MB memory.

Hi gang;I use Visual Studio 2012 Express on Windows 7. I have a couple plugins I have developed & compiled and would like to get them ported to Mac as well.I would have thought to do so, I just download Visual Studio on the Mac, copy the project over, and hit compile.However, after reading this thread: What do I need to do to convert a plugin developed in Windows to be Mac-compatible? It appears that's not the case. It seems I need to install XCode (which I know nothing about).So is the procedure the following:1 - download and install Xcode 102 - copy over my Windows VS 2012 project3 - open it on Xcode4 - set proper environment flags (ie. NDEBUG, MT/d, etc - although I have no idea where I'll find these in Xcode)5 - compileIs this along the right lines? Why can't I use Visual Studio for Mac?Any suggestions / tips from those that have gone through this?Thanks,-Richard
