Hello Everyone,

 

Hoping to find a solution for this issue here. I just updated my AE to version 25.2 and when I opened my project it gave me a message that Deep Glow effect is missing. I manually checked and saved the effect in the plugins folder as what was suggested in tutorials but it still showing as missing when I open After Effects. Anyone had the same issue?

Yeah, I faced the same issue. After searching for a solution, I found out that the latest version of After Effects only supports the latest version of Deep Glow. Older versions are ignored to prevent glitches. Now I'm stuck too because I don't have the latest Deep Glow version.

You're referring to deep glow 2, correct?

If you can't see the effects despite it being compatible with After Effects then go to Effects menu > Manage Effects > and ensure that the effect is checked.

Let me know how it goes.


Thanks,

the problem of that is that the new update is recognized on the program as a different plugin. So there's many projects with this change that are messed up cause the programm doesn't replace the older plugin for the new update. It just understands it as a different plugin.
