Hi all! I am working on an animation for an app in After Effects. That animation needs to be a lottie file. The problem is that I am using a rotating coin that is a 3D layer. As you all know 3D layers are not supported by lottie. Is there any way that I can bake/flatten the 3D layer and transform it into a frame by frame animation?

 

Thanks in advance!

Pre-compose. That will turn it into pixels though.

Long and short: Don't even bother. Export the tumbling coin as a separate animation, optimize it as ana animated GIF in photoshop, link and embed it by editing the published Lottie code.

Hi!

I’m having the same issue. Any updated solution for this?

Lottie only exporting my animation in 2D, not using my z-index values for final output.
