I just started getting this error (in AE 2014.2) when I upgraded (trial version) to the new Trapcode package (v13. The one with Tao).

Unchecking the “reduce cache size when system is low on memory”, seems to help, but it’s a total workaround. I’m running 96GB of RAM!

Scratch that…
Up/down arrows do change the roundness before you’ve released the mouse key. It just wasn’t working for me for some reason. Thanks, Kalle.

Try CC Image Wipe. It will let you transition based on another value such as luminance.

Ah. Thank you. That’s what I was looking for.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like there’s any support for adjusting the roundness of the rounded rectangle mask. It’s not really a very useful mask tool if I can’t adjust that.

Does double-clicking the Star Tool (mask button) still let me specify the details of this mask? When I double-click I just get a star mask applied to my comp (or it generates a shape, if no comp selected), but I can’t find how to adjust the number of points, etc.

Thanks.

Ug. I was afraid of that. Fortunately, with this project my aforementioned fix worked. 3D is definitely one of those places where the rule is true: If it looks right, it is right.

“Takes” looks cool. Thanks.

How crazy. Hitting “No” made all the difference for me.
Thanks!

I always forget this. In R16, go to your top menu bar:
Edit > Project Settings > View Clipping

Dave, we’re talking about the numeric keyframe velocity settings that you can pull up by selecting a keyframe and pressing CMD-SHFT-K.

As far as preferences files go, there are lot of great preferences we can tweak (except this one!) and learn about by digging in that file. Just make yourself a backup before getting curious!

Ah. Yeah, I could use the same advice.

Can you tell me briefly why 10 bit DPX is better to work with for VFX?
