  • duplicating puppet with nested comps and many expressions that link to a controller

    Posted by Fadi Baqi on March 6, 2013 at 4:42 pm

    I’m working on a puppet character which features several nested comps with expressions all linking to a controller layer in the master comp. I want to make a duplicate of this layer and its controller without having to go in and update all the expressions one by one. I’ve tried the True Comp Duplicator script but it keeps breaking all the expressions to the controller.

    Any suggestions?

    Sorry, i don´t think this is posible.
    I can not think of any way to get this done!
    TrueCompDublicator would be my first idea, but the, thinking again, i can´t work…

    …i think you need to do this by hand!
    Maybe someone on the Forum knows a way to do this… i would like to learn!

    Keep it up!

    Tried the author of the True Comp Duplicator script but still nothing. Does anyone here have a different solution?
