Hi, great job! Just a little question. I want my last level to be farer from the ground than standard level 8, I mean something more or less like level 4. Can I edit the zoom amount on each level to do it? Or is there any other way? Thanks a lot!

Hi, The toolkit can’t do that your request. But i will try to add an option that allows to change zoom level in next update.

Thanks!

Is there any video that shows examples of how you edit this project? I would like to know before i buy if its difficult or easy to edit since Im fairly new to AAE.

Please send me email from my profile page. I’ll send you a link to download tutorials.

Hi there, the render on the Mac on AE CC 2014 is stopping with error messages.

After Effects error: attempt to get a value from a time stream with no key values. ( 29 ::36 )

This is on a 2014 Mac Pro with 64GB RAM and the ‘with plugins’ template. All the plugins are installed and working.

Maybe one of your plug-ins installed is causing this error. Re-install plug-ins, if possible upgrade them. If you don’t have to use plug-in version, just use non-plug-in version.

What are the image sizes required for the maps? They seem to be mis-aligned and image edges shown. I have them at 1920×1080. Or maybe perhaps I captured the wrong zoom level of the map? I had to manually change zoom levels since the map generator wouldn’t stay on the same coordinates when I clicked on the level 1-8

Please use add-ons to capture map images as shown tutorial.

Hi,

I’m having trouble with the footages that is provided. somehow I can only open three videos out of the 12. It won’t even open in AE CC, it says the file is damaged or unsopprted.

Please help! and hope to get a reply soon

Hi,

I have download it again on my computer and even from a different computer, I even used a different program to extract the files when all didn’t work. but in the end it’s the same footages that I have a problem with

Thanks for the fast reply!

What player do you to open videos? Did you get any error message when you try to open it in any player?

for some reason some of the videos did not want to play on my computer even if I had downloaded from a different pc. (i’m using windows media player and VLC). It manage to work on a different pc for some reason, so thank you for the download (the problem was my computer itself and not the conversion and codec).

Thank you once again for your help! and great work, love this work and very easy to customize! Props!

I’m so impressed of the beauty of this… It’s incredible!

But, I’ve a question… My brother bought this pack but he doesn’t find the Hi-Tech Library? Where is it?

Thank you and I hope you answer soon! Love you! :kiss: :bigsmile:

You can find the hi-tech library in “Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit\Project Files\02 Hi-Tech Library” folder.

hi,

I work on mac, and it is giving me some error messages (missing things or something like: can’t find “rectangle path” from class “group”...), any idea what it is? If needed i´ll send printed-screens. (Also had to converted from windows version, and maybe that convertion was not good enough, it was done automatically by ae cc ). Any idea? thanks.

Please send me screenshot. You can send email from my profile page.

ok, sent

Hi MotionApe,

I need to make the duration of the whole video more than 6 mins. For now, at the 6 mins mark, the video turns black even though i change the composition setting to 10 mins.

How do i solve this issue ? Thanks

Actually it is very easy to extend the duration of main comp. Please watch that quick video tutorial.

Thanks A lot

Hello MotionApe,

one short question:

i need the earth zoomin and zoomout’s with decreased zoomlevel. He should stop zooming after 1-2 seconds

Explain: he should zoomin 20% to new york city, next scene he zoomout 20%, rotate to washington dc, and zoom in 20% and so on… like your “ultimate animated earth toolkit” but with a little zooming :)

maybe you have a little tutorial vid for this?

i hope you understand me :)

Hi, Sorry but toolkit designed for street level zooming. Toolkit can’t do that, it can be done manually using key frames.

I can not get the outro to play right. I have 2 scenes and after the second scene it zooms in again on the earth and then shows outter space. However, the preview shows the earth zooming away after last scene then cuts to logo.

Please help.

Please watch “10 Adjusting scene settings” video in tutorials folder.

thank you. I found it

also, I imported a logo into the outro, the logo is a png file. I was wondering how I can get the background to be black.

I tried taking the logo and making it into a jpeg with a solid background, however, the black background would not cover the entire screen.

If you ask me how you can change bg color of outro scene to black, there is an option for that. You can find it in “Outro Settings” pre-comp. Also please watch end of “05 Editing intro and outro” tutorial.

Hi, Working on Mac ?

That’s what i have done… like the tutorial.. still not working. do you have an email so i can send you a print scene ?

print screen

You can send email from my profile page (at right-bottom corner)

Where can I find the satellite from the Preview, it is not the same as in the project

Sorry for my English, i hope you can understand me, thx.

Preview video is generated using my project. It is same satellite. Maybe you saw a different project.

OK, thx, It’s Version V3, same satellite is a very smalller as the satellite in your preview and show only from side (fly by).

Hello MotionApe, truly excellent work on this. Am excited to make the purchase but hoping you can clarify one more thing for me beforehand. I plan to use this effect to zoom out from a football pitch (aerial footgae of people playing soccer in a stadium) to the satellite. I understand that the zoomin location is tied to coordinates but is there any way for me to customize it so that I can achieve the desired effect?

Hello, can you please send me email from my profile page.

Hey I just got AE CC 2014.2 And, just for fun, I wanted to open the advanced file with plugins. I’m missing the following: “Particular”, “Optical Flares”, “Plexus Toolkit”, “Plexus Layers Object”, “Plexus Points Renderer”, etc. is the notice.

In your installation instructions, could you provide a list where I may obtain all the missing plugins for AE CC?

PURCHASED BY FRIEND: Where can i get the audio that is used throughout the video…i downloaded the hi-tech cybernetic device soundtrack but thats only 17 seconds…im looking for the one thats used in thw whole video..not just 17 seconds

No….my friend purchased it for me only, there is only one client for this product which is me. My friend purchased this as a gift because i like graphic designing. I am not doing any illegal activity according to the laws. So MotionApe, can you PLEASE tell me the sound/music that was used throughout the whole video like the link or something, not the Hi-tech Cybernetic device…that is only 17 seconds! Anyways, Thank You for replying FAST. Appreciate IT! :) Please respond fast like you did before MotionApe. LOVE your work!

If you ask the music: http://audiojungle.net/item/frozen-wind-trailer/6856295?_ga=1.202804049.1504003042.1406996871

Yes, Hi-tech Cybernetic device is 17 seconds. Please watch “11 Adding sound FXs” tutorial to learn how to import sound FXs into template correctly.

Thank YOU! You replied FAST !!! I LOVE YOU!!!

Idea and implementation are at professional level. Congrats. :)

Map Generator Wizard: It is a browser based application that allow you to create map images of zoom points. – Does this mean that I would need the Internet connection? Couldn’t I just use already prepared images?

You would need the internet connection.

Thank you for the clarification.

it’s just amazing

Hello, MotionApe

About FR, it is fixed now. Thank you so much :)

I am just wondering (so I open new comment) that if I have done “Zoomout1”, “Zoomout2”, “Zoomout3”, and later on I just want to delete “Zoomout1” because my friends don’t like it, are there any easy ways to replace “Zoomout1” with “Zoomout2” rather than delete content on Zoomout1 and replicate content from Zoomout2 and so on?

I tried to move Zoomout1 marker behind Zoomout2 – didn’t work I tried to delete Zoomout1 marker – didn’t work too

Thank you so much for your help

For example, I have done 1-10 Zoomout, and I want to rearrange timeline (eg. I want content from Zoomout8 before Zoomout2) or in the end I don’t want Zoomout2 anymore. All I can think is that I have to replace content on Zoomout2 with Zoomout3, replace Zoomout3 with Zoomout4 content, and so on…..(lot of effort)

Thus, I am just curious that Can I swap or switch the markers around?

Template doesn’t work like that. Markers have to be in straight order.

Got it :D Thank you
