AE24.2.1 3D IMPORT ERROR | 3d MODEL FOR USE WITH TRAPCODE

Report · Mar 04, 2024

Hallo,
ich möchte die 3d Funktion von After Effects nutzen,
dabei versuchte ich 3d Modelle (obj, gltf) in AE zu importieren, was aktuell bei mir nicht funktioniert.
Ich nutze die Aktuelle Version von AE -> After Effects Version 24.2.1
Beim Import wird mir folgende Fehlermeldung angezeigt: "3d MODEL FOR USE WITH TRAPCODE"

Die Spracheinstellung für After Effects ist bei mir auf "Deutsch" gestellt.

Ändere ich die Spracheinstellung von "Deutsch" auf "Englisch" funktionert der 3d-model-import einwandfrei.

Wann wird dieser Bug gefixt bzw. wie kann ich diesen Fehler "3d MODEL FOR USE WITH TRAPCODE" beheben.
Das Problem liegt meiner Meinung nach an Adobe/After Effects.

Mit Besten Grüßen

Mario

Hello,
I would like to use the 3d function of After Effects,
I tried to import 3d models (obj, gltf) into AE, which is currently not working for me.
I am using the current version of AE -> After Effects version 24.2.1
When importing I get the following error message: "3d MODEL FOR USE WITH TRAPCODE"

The language setting for After Effects is set to "German".

If I change the language setting from "German" to "English", the 3d-model import works perfectly.

When will this bug be fixed or how can I fix this error "3d MODEL FOR USE WITH TRAPCODE".
In my opinion, the problem lies with Adobe/After Effects.

Best regards

Mario

Hi marog-pixcells,

I tried installing After Effects in German, and I was able to import the OBJ and GLB files without any errors. Are you getting this error with all the files? Can you try running After Effects in Safe Mode with third-party plug-ins disabled?

Let us know.

Note: Moving this thread from Bugs to Discussions for troubleshooting.

Thanks,

Hi there,

I installed After Effects in German for testing. Tried importing a .GLTF file and it imported without any issues. Can you share a file that repeats the problem at your end? Feel free to DM me the download link if you don't want to share it publicly.

Thanks,

Nishu

It was only for testing a new clean Project and i tried obj and glb. After renaming the AE german language File the 3d import worked like ist should. Presumably, the file would open normally.

But is the Trapcode Suite also installed on your machine?
I have the same issue for years now and it annoys me that no one is inspecting this
thx
