  • Ray-traced Effects not Outputting in Final Render

    Posted by Dan Quigley on May 29, 2015 at 1:57 pm

    I have a composition with the Ray-traced renderer turned on however when I did the final render, my text extrusion did not come out. Not only that but the drop shadow on my “the Journey” layer does not look the same in my comp as it does in the final output. What’s going on here? Pictures below.

    What version of After Effects?

    How, exactly, are you rendering to output?

    This failure when going through AME is a known bug, which we’ve fixed in the version that we’re releasing within a few weeks.

    What ever became of this? I’m still not seeing extrusion or motion blur when rendering through AME.

    I’m using AE CC2015 and rendering through AME CC2015. I’m getting the motion blur now (my stupid mistake) but still not the extrusion. I do get extrusion if I render through AE’s internal render engine but that is painfully slow.

    I’m running a late 2014 27″ iMac with 32 gigs of RAM and a AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4096 MB graphics card. I don’t see anybody else complaining about this but idon’t think it’s the machine. Maybe most others are using PCs or using the internal render engine.

    Thanks for responding.
