Questions

Hey guys, im new to after effects and i have a question. How do i get twixtor and sapphire? I tried looking it up and what not but it said twixtor was almost $800 dollars????? Thats insane, am I looking in the right spot?

Uso After Effects 25.3.0 [Build 71] y me esta pasando que al trabajar con archivos .mov [sea el formato que sea , desde Prores a incluso mp4] al tirar previos genera cuadros erroneos, frames negros y hasta frames invertidos y cortados aleatoriamente, sucede tambien al querer exportar en formato Quictime. Ya vacie varias veces todo el Cache, imagino que es algun error en la forma de generar el cache, porque a veces se soluciona "masajeando" el video y generando un previo en la ram. Incluso haciendo esto a veces tira tambien esos frames locos. Ya no se que hacer, la version anterior nunca me genero este tipo de problemas.Trabajo con video desde siempre y es especialmente molesto este tipo de bug. La configuracion de mi sistema no ha sido modificada, viene sucediendo desde la ultima actualizacion, tengo el plan del paquete de Adobe pago, por lo que las actualizaciones son automaticas.Por favor necesito una respuesta y solucion de parte de Adobe porque esta situacion me esta dificultando d

I'm using the blinking cursor typewriter effect on After Effects and I would like the cursor to have a different color than the rest of the text. Is this possible?

Hi folks,I have a simple comp with some footage and some textlayers.On many layers I used the built-in "Animation Presets -> Behaviors -> Fade In+Out - frames" for just fading layers opacity in and out.When I render the comp with the commandline-renderer "aerender.exe" everything looks as it should, except the opacity of the layers using the expression created with this preset. It's like the commandline-renderer ignores or doesn't "understand" the expressions on the opacity. Concerning layers are just 100% opaque.What I am doing wrong? Or is it a bug? Why "aerender.exe" just doesn't render the comp like AE would?Kind regards,Ronny

Then I applied the Saber effect and the text disappears.I then tried applying the Saber effect to a black solid then to the text, which worked butI can't animated the text across the scene, the saber animation dose not align with the text animationmaking my timing off or it the fire text down move.PLEASE I need help with this plug-in Saber.Does anybody know whats going on??????ThxZombie Frog Productions

I have tryed lot of options, even creating new seperate .ae file, and it just keeps showing up again and again and again, for 14 projects it worked fine today, but this particular project just keeps showing this error. I was exporting adobe premiere pro project from after effects.  I have cleaned chach, memory, deleted unused files, disabled all efects, cuz effects is not important here, only sound for multichannel mastering.  Don't know what to do anymore. even saved with a different name in different location. collected files once again trough dependencies, but NOTHING.

My after effects will not open anymore. I tried disabling plugins, i tried resetting preferences, i tried starting in safe mode, rebooting, reinstalling, but no luck. I simply get the message at launch " after effects error, internal verificationf ailure, sorry! (unable to acquire ascii style name). Hoping someone can please help., i just updated .

I use Adobe After Effects CC 2017, and auto-save is turned on by default. The path of auto-save is marked as "Next to Project". My computer turned off yesterday, because of electricity. So where can I find my lost project?

Hi guys, I just upgraded to the 2022 versions of all the Adobe suite. I can't import a photoshop file into After Effect, I get the following error message :  And then everything crashes, and an automatic save of the project is made, with the psd file but without the file's layers.Does anyone know anything about this? Can you guys help me? Thanks

I'm getting these  "after effects warning: Error reading past end of file" while rotoscoping. There doesnt seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. As a result this part of my file wont render/export in premiere. I check the file in After effect and I dont see any reason to be getting the error. I even went as far as replacing the clip footage with the same footage and I still get that error.

hey, i wanna have a "fading-out" color in my corners, by creating a gradient that fades from purple to black (as in picutres to be seen). but whatever I do, when i see it in after effects the fadeout is in good quality, when i export its suddenly pixeled and i can the the edges of the decreasing color ... i tried everything that AI chatbots suggested, i work and export in 32-Bit, i have high quality formats (quicktime apple pro res 422 HQ), i made the pre composition huge for the object that has the gradient effect - nothing works... PLS id love the help. im going crazy here. spent way too much time on that already 😞 still new with after effects btw. lookin forward to any tipps!

Guys please help! I need AE for school and this keeps popping up! I just deleted my Cinema4d AND THIS KEEPS ON HAPPENING. Please help 

Gostaria de baixar a versão de 2022 do after effects, no entanto, não consigo encontrar a aba de "Outras Versões", e a mais recente não é compativel com meu sistema. 

Pls help

Can you pleace fix Error Code: (0 :: 9997) and 9994 . I'm getting it allllllll the time.But it's inconsequential as it render the scene some times, but not all the time, and I've not done any thing with the scene. I guess it's an EXR error and better EXR support should have been fixed a long time ago. And why is EXR so damn slow in AE? I like AE, but it's bringing me down. Using EXR in davinci is not comparable and render that stuff in secounds. EXR is a standard in VFX and 3D so pleace add better suppert and yes Iæve updated my ProEXR so many times.

I was watching tutorial in youtube 'Stephen Zammit' and he gives this expression for approximate object movement affected by the null that renamed 'Effector' with slider control and 3D control point that also all renamed to the name accroding in the codes: var p1 = thisLayer.transform.position;var p2 = thisComp.layer("Effector").toWorld([0,0,0]);var RadiusStrength = thisComp.layer("Effector").effect("Radius Strength")(1);var Radius = thisComp.layer("Effector").effect("Radius")(1);var MoveX = thisComp.layer("Effector").effect("Position XYZ")(1)[0];var MoveY = thisComp.layer("Effector").effect("Position XYZ")(1)[1];var MoveZ = thisComp.layer("Effector").effect("Position XYZ")(1)[2];var d = length(p1, p2);var x = linear(d, Radius, RadiusStrength, MoveX, 0);var y = linear(d, Radius, RadiusStrength, MoveY, 0);var z = linear(d, Radius, RadiusStrength, MoveZ, 0);var xPos = p1[0] + x;var yPos = p1[1] + y;var zPos = p1[2] + z;[xPos, yPos, zPos];And i need to change the fist two lines to "t

Up to date AE Cloud 24.6.7 Mocha® Pro 2025.5 v12.5.0In Mocha pro I created a powermesh track of a moving face video track. In Mocha the mesh tracks and warps with the face. In AE it does not move at all.In the underlying track with the face, render is turned offIn the overlying track with the mask that I want to track the face, render is on with warp stabalize.

When I add Linear Wipe, it wipes with the same color as background. Can I change that?

AfterEffects SOS!I am having the weirdest issue with layers randomly becoming transparent in AfterEffects.The layers are originally created in Illustrator and imported into AfterEffects. They have no opacity settings on them.All the layers have no transparency effects on them in AfterEffects.The file and layers have 3D camera effects (X axis) on them - this may have something to do with it.Sometimes when I open the file, it's restored. Other times, the layers come out semi-transparent.I cleared out the cache and memory and that seemed to work once. But now it no longer fixes the issue.I'm completely stumped. I don't know if it's a hardware issue or a bug in AfterEffects.I have attached pictures of what it SHOULD look like, what it's coming out like and the layers/settings. You can see the 'Ring' 'Ring' and the phone is semi-transparent, but the rest of the scene is not. All elements have been imported from the same Illustrator file.

It shows this message and doesnt open:  Last log message was: SonyRawDecoder Found compatible GPU device for SonyRaw decode support..  Generating crash log, which may take a few minutes.

I've used AE just once to animate a graphic for this promo eleven years ago.  After getting frustrated trying to persuade Photoshop to do what I want with a video timeline, I have bitten the bullet, and decided to get even more frustrated with AE.   This is for the SFTW threads that we run on the Photoshop forum.     My idea is to make a kaleidoscope using four layers of the same still image with two of them mirrored, and mask the relevant quadrant of each layer.  My problem is that I can't get the mask to stay still while I rotate the image behind it.  Google mentioned the Pan Behind Anchor Point tool, but I I need to rotate rather than pan, and I'm not getting it anyway.   It must be doable. Can someone point me in the right direction?  Thanks.   BTW All are welcome to the SFTW threads, but I'm thinking that if you guys joined in, us Photoshop types would give up and go home.
