February 2024 release (version 24.2)

The February 2024 (24.2) release presents new features, user-requested workflow improvements, and important fixes in After Effects.
Import OBJ 3D models

Natively import OBJ 3D models into your project and drop them into your composite alongside other 2D and 3D layers.

Motion Graphics template preview thumbnails

Export Motion Graphics template with a video preview of the primary composition as a thumbnail for quick visualization within Premiere Pro.
.exr file for environmental lighting

Use OpenEXR image (.exr) files in your composition to create realistic and high-quality lighting in your 3D scenes.

Enhancements in Cycore plug-in effects

Plug-in effects-specific enhancements with new controls and fixes to support your diverse animation needs and workflows.
Cast and accept shadows for 3D objects
Control how 3D objects interact with light and shadows in your composition by configuring their cast and receive shadows properties.

Fixed issues in the February 2024 release (version 24.2)

After Effects no longer crashes when you use Mask Feather Tool to adjust a feather beyond the bounds of a mask.
Ampersands "&" in the effect names are now correctly displayed in the Effects submenus.
Expression errors no longer cause "{PrepAndWrite() called on non-diskcacheable stuff}" error.
Preview no longer fails when collapsing transformations on a nested composition that has a layer with Puppet pins.
The Rotation value no longer resets to 0 after one rotation while holding the Shift key.
For image-based lighting, replacing footage now correctly updates Environment Light rendering.
For image-based lighting, Environment Light no longer renders too bright through intensity range.
When applying a preset, the Position of a layer will now be combined or separated automatically according to what the preset was saved with.
Error message when failing to read Project XMP data is correctly formatted.
Fixed a crash that could occur when using sampleImage()in a layer expression.
High-quality shadow settings no longer cause TDRs on systems with AMD Radeon PRO cards.
The tiling size is calculated correctly even when the shadow Smoothness value under Advanced 3D Renderer Options is set to greater than 1.
Adaptive Resolution will activate when needed and as expected when you change settings values in the Advanced 3D Renderer Options dialog.
3D placeholder models no longer cast shadows.
Replacing the source of a 3D model updates the name and bounding box as expected.
After Effects no longer crashes when you modify Color settings in the Interpret Footage dialog box.
In Cineware, when you revert to Cinema 4D, the composition viewer updates to use the C4D camera as expected.
After Effects no longer freezes when you remove a Cinema 4D layer.
Updating Cineware to 5.1.10 allows projects with Cinema 4D files to open as expected when saving them to After Effects 23.x and 22.x.

I love adobe after effects. The program has nearly infinate possibilities. Now if they could solve the crash isses with cc shatter.

Review by lowellriggsiam on Apr 9, 2011 Version: 10 OS: Windows 7 64-bit Ease of use: 8/10 Functionality: 9/10 Value for money: 9/10 Overall: 9/10




Tight integration with Photoshop and Illustrator and one of the easiest compositors to understand and use (but they're all complicated). Uses a familiar layered timeline interface. A myriad of great 3rd party plug ins (3D, light filters, special fx etc), some of which cost more than the application! Pro version includes extra base filter pack.

I'd like it more if Adobe had included autosave with my version, but unlike other compositors AE rarely crashes and allows you to work to deadlines. Suitable for pros and hobbyists with plenty of spare cash!
