Question

Why cant i export bcc effects correctly?

I'm trying to export my project and it has a couple of bcc effects ( bcc ripple and bcc rain ) and it is not working. whenever i export, the video does not show the effect at all. i have tried exporting it as animation. i have turned off multi frame rendering. i have switched to mercury software only. None of it has worked. does anyone have any ideas on what to do?

    In addition to what the experts suggested, when did you start having the issue? Was it working fine in the previous version? If nothing helps, can you try installing the previous version of After Effects and see if that helps?

    Let us know.

     

    Thanks,

    Which AE version are you using? 
    Assuming BCC plugin is compatible with the version you are on, have you tried applying the effects on an adjustment layer? 
    does purging memory and disk cache help in a way?

    This threw me, so I went down some searches and came up with “make sure your plugins are up to date and your GPU drivers are as well”.  Which isn’t great admittedly.

    Can you render out a single frame or screenshot?  If the effect is there, then it must be a caching issue.  If the effect isn’t there, maybe the plug-in is corrupt and need s to be removed and reinstalled???
