So im trying to create 3D shape layers using advanced 3D. But everytime I switch from classic 3D to advanced 3D my shape layer becomes invisible. But when I switch back to Classic 3D or Cinema 4D it becomes visible again. I've been trying to look for solutions but cant find one. How can I fix this advanced 3D issue?

Hey there @geomatrix_7953 , what exact version of AE are you using? Also, could you DM me this project?

 

Thanks,

I dont think i have the same problem. See pictures below for reference.

Classic 3D renderer:


Advanced 3D renderer:


Cinema 4D renderer:


As the pictures show, when I make it Advanced 3D, the shape layer becomes invisible even though i have it in front of everything else and i already checked the opacity and the placement.
