Bro this is your lucky day, so this is the solution:
-Every AE version is able to dowgrade projects by about 2 versions back,
so all you need to do is:
-install AE 2025 and AE 2023
-open the 25 project in 25 and then click on:
File–save as–save a copy as 23.0
then open the project on AE 23 and downgrade it again to 18.0 as in the screeshot below
have a nice day bro and lemme know if you enjoy the help! <b style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;”>️🔥

Hey Moira! It seems that you didn’t read my reply in the other post; unfortunately, it’s not possible to achieve the same exact result without plugins in AE, maybe using real footage of ink going inside water and then using some advanced layering of effects. Blender can do this but if you never used it, some pain is in the horizon.
If you wanna go the easy way, I recommend installing “Trapcode Form” and following this tutorial. if you have 30 seconds of your time, please lemme know if that helps!

Here is the tutorial, i hope that helps getting you in the right direction! You need to install the trial or the full version of a magic plugin called “Trapcode Form” 🔥

Hey Chirs i recorded a 15 minute guide helping you optimize AE for performance + 2 methods to make proxies (one standard, one more powerful more complex), Enjoy! 🔥
Hardware wise, make sure your processor has at least 16 physical cores running at 5hgz + minimum 64gb of ram, keep your projects at 8bpc and enable (cuda) if that’s available. Good luck and let me know if you like the help!

without a plugin? no it can’t be done to look even similar to that. I do know how to achieve it with a couple of paid plugins, i can record a free tutorial for you if you want!

to never see that error ever again, downgrade to 24 or 23. to still see it every x months, downgrade to the very first version of 2025. Best of luck.

Sounds great! Here’s the additional tutorial in case you want to see how i achieved it!

i suspect he is busy these days, our messages are probably not being read, i hope he returns

Good catch, that is indeed part of the trick, but it seems that he is not online anymore, let’s hope he sees the new render!

Before I record the tutorial, check this new render:
do you confirm that this result is better than what you’ve gotten so far and that, consequently, you’d be happy to know more about the trick i used?
