Is camera projection no longer available in After Effects 2025?

I've been using camera projection in After Effects for years--only when I tried to implement it using the process I've always used with AFX 2025, it no longer seems to work? And when I do a search (pretty much everywhere--YouTube/Adobe Community/Google), the only references I can find are referring to the earlier method I've always used with earlier versions--or there are reference to a 3rd party plugin to accomplish this. Is anyone else encountering this?

Error or problem

Cast Shadows Only and light transmission are working as they always have in AE 25.4.0 build 86.

Is that the process of using a 2.5D video and shining a light through it to cast shadows? If so, you have to make sure your comp is in Classic 3D.

Thanks! Y'know I tried to make sure of that first thing--and it still didn't work. The "Accept Shadows Only" on the layer shader was no longer listed.

Would you be prepared to share your project for me to check out? You could DM me if you'd prefer.
