After Effect 22.6 crashes opening previous version saved project files on render

Hello,

After updating to the latest version, and trying to render some projects saved by any previous 22.x version, certain filters and plugins on shape layers and text cause the render to crash with error: 512. 

Tried in 4 different PCs ranging from 5900x and 5950x to Threadripper 3570, and with 3080s, 128Gb Ram, locally or from the network. All crash on the same frame. All tested with and without multiframe render and Mercury acceleration.

2 different files.

 

One with a simple Proress 444HQ as a BG and a text crawl with Drop Shadow at 1080p rendered progressive and interlaced. If I dissable the Drop Shadow everything renders fine. If I recreate the text (copy paste the source text) and add the Drop Shadow it also renders fine.

 

Second project is full blown MOGRAPH with lots of plugins and animations, and the specific render is stoping because of RSMB Pro on a very specific shape layer. No resolution other than removing/disabling the effect in this one.

 

It works fine in any non 22.6 AE.

Any resolution or bug fix release for this issue? or should we all just downgrade to continue working on any older projects, in order to not create such issues in the future?

 

Also how can I still have a previous .x release along with the latest, and how can we easilly downgrade to any dot release in case of such a fatal issue?

Hi npittas,

 

Sorry for the crash.

Do you get any crash reports? If so, please share one with us. If you have included your Adobe ID or email address while submitting crash reports, please share that with me via a private message. We'll share the crash report with the engineers to get them translated.

If possible, please share an After Effects project (with media) to test at our end.

We're here to help, just need more info.
