A question about Trapcode Form

Have you contacted Maxon support?

Thanks for your responses, 

I am running AE 26.0.0 (build 67), on Sequoia 15.7.2 on MacStudio M1Ulta with 128GB of Ram.

Been using AE since version one and run Macs for 20 years.

Have tried Form on AE 24 and 25 - seems more stable.
If I then open the AE25 version of the project in AE26 we are fine.
Crash happened when I opened Form in AE26 and clicked on ‘Designer’.


Have seen on forums that there is a stability issue with Form on AE 26.

But currently seems ok.

Thanks,
Ben

Hi, ​@benm66861238:

Sorry to hear that you are having trouble.  Can you provide details about the exact version numbers of your OS, Ae, and Form that you’re using along with what’s happening?

If you happen to be trying to run an older version of Form with Ae 25.x or 26.x, it is very likely to result in nothing happening as expected.

I’m running Red Giant Form 2026.4.1 with After Effects 26.5.0 under macOS Sequoia 15.7.9 on an Apple Silicon based Mac and it runs pretty well.

Take some time to review the Maxon One Minimum Requirements and the Red Giant Compatibility page to make sure you up-to-date.  

It may also help to open a support ticket with Maxon.

There is a bit of an upgrade grind where we have to constantly be checking version numbers and, of course, there’s a cost associate with that as well.

Hi, sorry to hear about the issue. A couple of questions to help narrow it down:

1. Are you facing issues only with Trapcode Form, or with other plug-ins as well?

2. What are your system specifications (AE version, macOS version, Mac chip, RAM)?

If it's specific to Trapcode Form, best to contact Maxon (the plug-in's manufacturer) for help since they maintain it.

Let me know how it goes.

Thanks,
Nishu
