  proanimator- where is it

  Posted by Dirk on September 22, 2006 at 5:00 pm

  The whole folder is located in the AE plug-ins folder but now I cant find how to use Proanimator inside AE as a plug-in. Im assuming its shouuld be at the bottom list in my effects drop down menu but its not. I also did a search in the effects and presets palette with no luck.

  It works fine as a standalone app. So where is it inside After Effects?

  Thanks.

  It’s not in AE. Proanimator is a standalone app only. The equivalent AE plugin is Invigorator or Invigorator Pro. They pretty much do the same thing as Proanimator, though.

  Not true – ProAnimator is supposed to work as either a plugin or as a standalone, or both.

  I was after getting it to backup our 3D designer, or use as a substitur when he’s away (I haven’t got time to learn Softimage or Lightwave) but he tells me Zaxwerks stuff is a pile of ****!?! VERY, very slow apparently.

  I am dubious, as I’ve heard some good stuff about it. Could anybody who uses it let me know if this is true? Is it upto the job speed and quality wise if I’m just making simple logos & 3D text?

  Cheers.
