When I try to open a c4d project from After effects I get this message. 

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling after effects. 

I still get the below error. 


Several plugins used in this project are missing.

Saving may cause loss of plugin data!

Plugin 'Volume Builder' (ID 1039859)

The Cinema 4D Lite version included with After Effects does not include the volume builder module of the full C4D version.

The project was working fine, and then today when I opened C4d, it popped this message up and the spear that I added didn't render the textures correctly. Is this volume builder a cause for texture dissmapp?

If you are using the full cinema 4D version then it is probable that it includes any third party renderer that is not compatible with Cineware. Are you using Arnold, Redshift or any other renderer inside your C4d project?
