    I’m finding a strange sit. when de-composing.

    I have 3 pre-comps consisting of a bunch of lip-sync pre-comps, 2 of them open fine, the third keeps coming up with

    and the spinning ball from hell. The reason I keep re-opening the pre-comp is because, when I open AE, I find that my lip-syncs have move within the frames.

    I’m not familiar with that script. Where did you get it?

    Hi Dan, Sorry for my tardiness, I had a real busy w/e.

    I got that from After Effects by de-composing 3 pre-comps, the pre-comps had approx 20 pre-comps inside which, consisted of puppet tool lip-syncs on both the top lip and bottom lip separately. The puppet tool lip-syncs were then pre-comped together at a total of 20 per line.

    These lip-syncs worked fine for a while, and then, this “End Script Tool Kit” opened with: 0_screenshot2011-12-10at8.12.02am.png

    Now my pre-comps are n/g no syncs.

    One of the things I noticed in the tool kit script was “bug”

    Is there a way I can take the lip-sync pre-comps from a past saving and bring them forward to my latest work??

    Is there a way I can debug my animation?

    Any help would be appreciated Tks Gary

    It took me a while to figure out what you’re talking about, but I’m assuming you’re using the De-Compose plugin from batchframe.com. It’s now called Un-PreCompose, so you may have an old version. I think your best bet would be to see if they can answer your question. Maybe all you need to do is get the latest version. The fact that the ExtendScript Tool Kit is popping up is strange. That may mean that the plugin calls a script to do some part of the un-precomposing. It’s a mystery to me. Good luck though.
