    Hello,

    I just installed, as an upgrade, After Effects CS3. I had AE 6.5. Continuum Complete 4 does not show up in the effects folder. I also have dvmatte pro which does not show up. Are they compatible with CS 3 and if so, where do I put them? In 6.5 I just placed them in the plug ins folder but so far this does not work in CS 3. Can anyone help me with this.

    Thanks a lot,

    Bill

    Hi Bill,

    Well, if you have BCC 4.1 then it should indeed work with AE CS3 – but you’ll need to reinstall BCC so that AE can find the filters. However, having said that, you should bear in mind that the version of BCC that you are working with is no longer current – you should really consider upgrading to BCC 5, which is the current version of the product.

    I hope this helps.

    Peter.

    Hi Peter,

    I reinstalled Continuum Complete and put it into the plug ins folder and restarted the computer. As After Effects was starting up I saw that it was scanning the folders but when I opened the effects drop down window it was not there. Any suggestions.

    Thanks,

    Bill

    Hi Bill,

    What is the version number of BCC? I’ll need the exact version so that I can be sure of the problem. I recall that there was an issue with the initial 4.1 release that had this problem, the plug-ins were not being recognized by the CS3 host and we provided an update that fixed this issue. Perhaps you don’t have the revision and this is the cause.

    Anyway, send me the exact version number and I’ll be able to provide more info.

    Cheers,

    Peter.

    Hi Peter,

    It’s BCC 4. Not 4.1. I looked up the compatibility and apparently it’s not.

    Perhaps, hopefully I am wrong,

    Bill

    Hi Bill,

    You’ll need to use BCC 4.1 or greater for CS3 – 4.0 won’t work.

    Cheers,

    Peter.
