Hi John,

I was able to get this to work by doing the following.

– set the opacity to 0%

– Start=0

-Offset=0

– Keyframe the End from 100% to 0% then back to 100%

See attached AE file.

Is this want you are wanting to do?

Typically, I find that this means there is a licensing or registration issue. I would make sure that you have your serial number put into particular, or if you are using RG Application Manager verify that it is activated there. RG is also changing their login process through Maxon, so it could be attributed to that as well.

Best of luck!

Hi Michael,

Thank you for that clarification, I am not using the RGTC 16 so that is good to know.

Hi

First, take all of the photos and put them into a composition all lasting 1 frame each.

Second, using either a custom Sprite or Textured Polygon. The difference is how they face the camera. A Sprite always faces the camera rather than a Textured Polygon does not always face the camera. This can be found under Particle>Particle Type. In the drop…

Thank you for sending me this information.

I am little stuck, not sure if you can shed some light not this.

I have a layer (which is a flower) with 2 position key frames, moving the flower from left to right.

I am applying this expression to the Anchor Point to move the flower based on a fractal noise layer, as it moves across the composition.

Thank you for your thoughts. It seems that Red Giant will take advantage of any attached eGPU as long as AE is set up to do so, however, there are many mixed reviews about how AE preforms with eGPUs.

The memory upgrade is at the top of the list.

Thanks!

Hi all,

I am attempting to affect the position of a layer based on a layer of fractal noise. The layer is keyframed to move and I want it to be affected by the fractal field, much like particles in particular.

Is something like this possible? and how might I go about achieving this?

I attempted to use Displacement Map, however, it effects the look…

Hi Everyone,

I am looking to improve my After Effects performance primarily with RG plug-ins and 3D setups. I am trying to determine if I should upgrade my memory to 32/64GB or if I should entertain getting an eGPU? Should I be considering a Workstation graphics card or just a regular gaming card?

Computer:Mac Mini 2018 with an i7 processor and…
