    Hi Meng dont worry about the work that if have done no problems nothing is ever realy wasted.

    I tried to run your script but i get an error massage in AE. line 58 undefiened is not an object

    maybe because i dont have the AEscript editor installed dont know but thanks for trying.

    AND the script actualy dont has to generate or copy new Comps, that is easyly done by Hand.

    it just would have to replace the precomps as i have discribed above, if that is possible

    sorry i hadnt watched the png fullscreen the polyreduction makes no sense.

    if your model has to many polys for softbody make a copy reduce the polygons and make the low poly editable then get a meshdeformer under your highpoly drag yor lowpoly into the window of the meshdeformer , initiate and click on surface in lower part of the meshdeformer atribute window . then you can make a softbody sim with the lowpoly model and the sim will be transfered onto your highpoly model

    Hi just a wild guess but softbody sim hates intersecting polys you could raise the structure value to 1000 rasie hard and volume the second last value in the softbodys. Or you could try it with a cloth simulation .

    I will try to explain I make let say 1 hundred copys of my first comp wich has a control precomp layer and a Baseshape precomp layer.

    all the comp are named 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and so on

    and I need to replace the Baseshape precomp in comp1 with the comp 0 and in comp 2 with comp 1 and in comp 3 with comp2 and in comp 4 with comp 3 and so on.

    maybe my first test will help.

    Thank you of course does it work.
    there is one small thing the opacity animations was meant to switch the layer on and of so I keyframed frame 0 with value 0, frame 1 with value 100, frame 2 with value 100 and frame 3 with value 0 again.
    your expression seems to interpolate this into a dissolve of 25 frames
    but that is okay for me. I will try to figure it out myself.
    Actually I just found out was it was. I had to separate the in and out animation for about 4 seconds and now it just switches the layer on and off just like
    I needed it to be.
    Thank you a lot
    you really helped me.
    have a nice day
