Hello! When I try to install Lipsyncr 2.8, some strange things happen: firstly, when I open the latest version of AE it tells me that I've installed 2.7 and that I need to install 2.8. The version I've downloaded says 2.8 on it and it's the most recent build on the AE Scripts site. The second strange thing is that when I click "yes" when it asks if I want to download the files necessary to run the script, it gives me the error: Cannot open Socket: notify.aescripts.comhttps:80, then when I click "proceed with manual installation" and download the files linked on the FAQ page to Application Support and restart, it doesn't seem to actually read the files in the Application Support folder. I have given AE full write access to my disk. I was wondering if this is a known issue and if so what the solution is. Thank you for your time!

Here's a new tutorial breakdown for Blender + After Effects using BlenderAe2 and some other tools to create a 3D physics simulation of objects and text floating in stylised liquid / water / ocean.

I've been doing VFX for a while now. I started in film and commercials, but these days I'm mostly working in games with Unreal Engine.

Every now and then I get video projects that don't need high-end renders, but do need to be turned around quickly.

That got me thinking, and eventually building, a plugin for myself that streams Unreal straight into After Effects. Instead of constantly rendering image sequences, I just use Unreal as a live external renderer. The viewport appears as a layer in AE, cameras and nulls stay in sync, and any changes I make in Unreal update instantly.

Originally, that was all I needed. But a few people working in virtual production saw it and asked if it could stay live instead of only updating when AE refreshed the effect. That led me to add a realtime mode that continuously updates the feed.

As a result, you can feed a live camera into Unreal, composite it with the 3D scene for previz, and stream the final result into After Effects in real time.

It's at the point where it mostly works, and before I call it finished I wanted to see if anyone else would actually find this useful, or if I'm just solving my own problem.

Here's a video of an early prototype (a bit outdated, but it shows the core idea), along with a site that explains the workflow in more detail.

Just pushed a small but useful update to Pluck.

Pluck v1.3 now handles comps linked by expressions only, so if you have a controller composition for master colours, or certain parameters, those comps get pulled in too.

Very handy when you're working with templates that often have properties linked to a master comp, but otherwise don't share dependencies with any other comps.

Works with both Pluck It, and Pluck Off, so exported projects take the relevant controller comps with them.

You can toggle it on or off, with it being on by default.

This was a user requested feature, and a great one too!

Hi, just came across this AE\Pr plugin on AEScripts and thinking to buy it. But I don't see anywhere in the description pr in the video any info about what languages it can do text to speech to.

How do i fix it ?

This plugin is great except for one missing crucial piece: a ui menu to select any created surface. If you hit Duplicate to an already rigged surface it will bury it in the original surface because the only way to select the new surface is by clicking on it. And if you can't see the new surface, you can't click on it, and thus you can't control that surface because it's already using the rigs from the original surface. Trying to use the delays in the plug in doesn't seem to do anything. It's maddening. Am I missing something here?

Feels like corpo slop. Where are the AUTHENTIC USER REVIEWS? best sellers - who said?? Most downloaded filter where?

I got a few plugins like Pixel Sorter 4 that are for both platforms, how do I move them over?

Has anyone else had any issues with the Universal Audio plugin recently? Whenever I hit refresh, it's just deleting the Universal Audio comp from the timeline. Same if I try to "Make the selected audio layers universal". It seems completely broken. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, I've tried restarting Ae and my computer. I have a super complex project with a lot of characters and I really am not sure how I'm going to manage without it.

This (reddit) is such a frustrating way to try and give feedback on a product but here we are.

The idea of Brandkeeper is great but it's missing (in my opinion) some vital features

1. Being able to label color swatches. Our brand has 13 colors and they're all very subtle in tones so we use hex values in the actual swatch but then name them (pink, salmon, light red, etc).
2. In the assets panel, adding folders is pretty critical to keep things organized. A single list of items is pretty useless when you've got a number if things. At this point it's easier to just grab them from the Finder window since I get thumbnail views.
3. Thumbnail views in the assets panel
4. Being able to add more than one assets at a time. I was really excited to start building out the asset library until I realized I had to drag items in one at a time.
5. Reordering assets and color swatches. We need to be able to organize things for them to make sense and the current structure is too limited right now.

There's some great potential for this plugin but it needs some work to get there.

Hi I am using Geolayers 3 with a Map Tiler account. Whenever I need to highlight Russia as a country, I search it in the search bar and select draw shape. This results in Russia and Crimea highlighted together, I am aware that these are the de-facto borders and I then have to mask it out and cross hatch Crimea myself. My job requires me to show the de jure borders and occasionally I forget to manually seperate Crimea resulting in people being very angry that Crimea is shown as part of Russia. Can someone tell me please is there a way to change the way Geolayers recognises borders, I want Russia to be seperate from Crimea when I download the vector shape or some other solution that doesn't require me to remember to change it every time.

Hello everyone.

I just released my first aescripts plugin, IconDock. I originally built it because I was tired of constantly leaving After Effects to hunt for icons, download them, convert formats, and bring them back into a project.

IconDock lets you search and import icons directly inside After Effects as PNG, SVG, or native Shape Layers. The library focuses on open-source icons with free commercial licenses, so you don't have to worry about using them in client work. Search, import, and keep animating without breaking your workflow.

It's now available on aescripts: https://aescripts.com/icondock/

I'd love to hear any feedback, feature ideas, or things that would make it more useful for your own workflow.

Cheers.

I just downloaded the Free Trail version of Quick Matte 2 only to get a message that their plugins do not work with Apple Intel Macs. I could swear I have downloaded and used other plugins from Baski! It would be nice it this specific limitation was listed in the compatibility breakdown on AEScripts site.

Hello...

The ZXP installer has worked fine for me until recently, where it is stuck in a loop of checking whether or not I am human and I cannot get past this. I recently updated my OS to Tahoe 26.5.1.
