Import 3d / Create 3d mockup

Hi,

I'm trying to create something like a 3D mockup within after effects using an imported 3D mesh.

I was able to import my scene using Cinema 4D via CINEWARE but I can't access any of the properties of my scene. I would like to access the object textures and replace them with After Effects compositions. The 3D scene would act like a mockup.

Is there any way to achieve this within After Effects, without third party plugins?

Thank you!

Just to add to Mylenium's comments, the only option outside of spending money on Element3D would be to render out to your AE texture compositions as video / image sequences and bring these into Cinema4D and use the materials options there to add them.

No. Not how this works. Textures are handled in C4D directly or you indeed need Element 3D.
