C4d file import into After Effects Error

Hello,

I am working on a project in After Effects CC where I use imported .c4d files as elements and complete the final render through After Effects. Everything has been great until I recently updated to CC 2015.3 and now when I try to import a .c4d file, I receive many error messages and when i try viewing the .c4d file, all I see are color bars.

Does anyone else have this issue? I am on a Mac OS X 10.11

Thank you,
Brian

Hi Brian,

I do not know a lot about your set up.

The first thing I would check is the plug-in for C4D import. You find always the newest in your c4D folder.

If that isn’t working for you, perhaps you check this with the support:

If you find a solution, it would be nice to share your findings here. Thanks

All the best

Thanks for your quick reply.

Unfortunately, everything is up to date. I am assuming the problem lies with an Adobe update, but figured I’d check here first. The c4dimport plug in I have is dated3/31/2015. That was from my R17 folder.

Thank you,
Brian

Hi Brian,

This is the version which I have just tested here. It works on my system…

Perhaps load a fresh one. (It has the same time stamp, but it looks newer based on the zip)

Scroll down to After Effects.

All the best
