    Hi Mat,

    ProAnimator 4 works as an After Effects plug-in and as a stand alone. It’s not yet designed to work inside of Motion – and that’s probably why it’s crashing. We’ll have to wait and see what the future holds for a ProAnimator Motion plug-in.

    At this point, Zaxwerks does offer 3D Flag and Stackworks, which do work natively in Motion.

    But the website lists MOTION 2 as a supported host…

    Hi Mathieu.

    Can you tell us which machine you’re running Motion on?

    Also, can you send me a sample scene that you’re applying PA to?
    Let me know which layer(s) you’re adding the effect to.

    You can send files to: matt@zaxwerks.com

    Thanks.

    Hi Mathieu,

    I see that too. Perhaps full support for Motion is closer than I thought. Let us know how sending the test file to Matt goes.

    I’m sure lots of people using Motion will be glad to know the PA plug-in is very, very close.

    good to know ’cause I’m giving a presentation at the Montreal Final Cut User Group Meeting tonight on ProAnimator and Stackswerk. I don’t think i’ll be able to send it today but I work on sending you the file before the end of the week.

    Has this issue been resolved with Motion crashing yet?
