They are actually both included still but marked Obsolete which means they will not show up in the effect menu. If you open an old project with layers having the effects applied, they will however show up in the effects window.

Sounds like a typical job for Rakka.

Not entirely sure what you are looking for but perhaps you’ll find something here Planet Texture Maps

You could take a look at our CFX Sphere Utilities, especially Mappit although it might be difficult if your art covers a large portion of the sphere. Perhaps adding the elements one by one would work. Anyhow, take a look.

Great! Happy it worked out for you 🙂

Since you are using 50&, the CC Wide Time should actually work just a well (or easier), as just as it is applied to the pre-strecteded actual footage.

No worries Andrés, english is not my first language either. I just hope that my mumbling can be of some assistance!

Ok, I just tried this exact thing and it worked fine, as long as I set Shutter Angle to 360. Actually setting it to 180.1 should do the job as well. There could be a rounding problem if you scale 50 fps by 50 % you might end up with 25.0001%, which is (sliiiiightly) less than 25 percent.
Try setting your shutter angle at 361 degrees, then you won’t have to worry about additional frames not showing up.
I repeat my suggestion to use CC Wide Time insead. It would only require a setting relative to your speedup of the source footage. 50% would be 1 frame before and 1 frame behind.

Andrés, I meant that as of CS5, AE can synthesize intermediate frames so that effects such as CC Force Motion Blur or CC Wide Time can generate more graphics from less input, which is a really great improvement. 🙂 (Thank you Adobe!)

When you say “… some accelerated video footage.” what exactly do you mean?
Force Motion Blur does not synthesize motion blur, it blends intermediate frames into a single frame to generate the motion blur. If your source footage does not contain any intermediate frames then there will not be any effect. What you are seeing on progressive frames (eg. comp window) is most likely the deinterlaced fields being blended. When you then render interlaced there won’t be any further intermediate frames and thus no effect.
If you footage does not contain the necessary intermediate frames you may use AEs (CS5 or higher) high quality frame blending to provide synthesized frames for Force Motion Blur to use but it must then be applied as an adjustment layer.
