I’m wondering the same thing, because I wnat to have AE CS5 running for its 64-bit capacity, but I will never be able to upgrade all my plugins so I want to sometimes also run my AE CS4 (32-bit) program on the same computer (though not open at the same time).

I think I spoke too soon. The mask seems to help with the small details…but I still need to draw custom mesh somehow. I know there must be a way…but I can’t find it yet.

Aha. I have to draw a mask around the details of the object in order to control where the mesh is applied. I answered my own question. Maybe this will help someone else though. Cheers.

Wow, you are darned good. That’s amazing advice! Thanks for being so quick too. Gotta love the Cow eh?
cheers.

Problem solved. I needed to download something called the NeoPlayer from Cineform. It is actually a “codec” and not a stand-alone players. Anyhow, it’s free (though I purchased my cineform conversion software from them). And now I can work on these Cineform HD files in AE CS4, even in 16 and 32-bit.
Just in case anyone else ever has this problem.
Cheers.

Does this mean that if you only have 8 GB of RAM that there is no point running more than 2 instances of AE? In fact, is there a problem running two even, since they’d together be accessing all 8GB RAM leaving no RAM left for the operating system?
-
Thank you! That answered my question and more! Never thought to run multiple instances to take advantage of more RAM. So the program knows to access “un-tapped” RAM does it? That is, if one instance is using 4 GB, a new instance of AE will only access a totally different 4 GB?
I’m assuming you mean you can render out half a comp in one instance, and the other half in the other instance.

Thanks. Guess I’ll have to take a 24-hour crash course in Flash CS4.
-
Cool. I didn’t know about that.

Great advice. Thanks. I’ll use the tutorials suggested. Though Creative Cow is a far more effective searching tool than Google. You guys gave me two perfect responses out of two (versus 2 million on Google). 🙂
