Unmult plugin for old AE comp (AE CS 5.5)
Posted by Quen Hoai on September 17, 2020 at 8:43 amHi all,
I need reopen a comp, which made in AE CS 5.5 and have apply Unmult plug-in. I always get the error message Unmult even though I have installed Unmult (2019) for AE CS 5.5.
What wrong for me and How can I fix it?
Thank for your advice.

What exact error message do you get?

To use the Set Matte effect you need to first pre-compose your lens flare on the black solid layer and move all attributes to the new pre-comp.
Then apply the Set Matte effect to the pre-comp in your main comp and change the “Use For Matte” property to luminance or lightness.
Then change the pre-comp’s blend mode to “Luminescent Premul.”
