Dear MotionApe,
I would like to change the outro logo from ‘Evanto’ to ‘Maria’s 30th Birthday Party’.
This is one of the reasons why I bought this product, I want to use the ultimate earth zoom toolkit as an introduction to a presentation, but I can not change the evanto logo at the end.
Could you please kindly advise on the quicker and easier way to do this? Her Birthday Party is on Wednesday 28th June… 
Hi, please check out the “03 Editing Intro and Outro” tutorial. At 4:10 you can see how to change the logo.
Problem with installation. I’m running AE CS6 on Mac Sierra 10.12.5—dragged the 2 files into the UI Script folder, but when I go to the Windows and MapGenerator, it says “Unable to execute script at line 936. Invalid image data” and a blank window pops up. I think I checked all the boxes from the Install video, so not sure what is causing this. Thanks.
Hi, you have to save as the project file to the folder where the original toolkit file in. (Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit v3.0\Project Files\01 Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit” folder)
All I did was, per the installation video, copied the 2 files into the ScriptUI Panels folder within AE > Scripts … what else do I need to do? I see the folder you are describing, but not sure what to do next. I opened the file “Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit.aep” file in the 01 folder and did a Save As back to the same folder. Still nothing—can you provide additional information please?
Can you provide me a screenshot of your folder please?
I sent you the image a few days ago. Did you receive it?
Hi, you sent me an email with only this text ”/Users/rmbp/Desktop/screen53.jpeg”. It doesn’t work like this. Please check out the video from the link below.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N36UtUKgrcYou didn’t give me an email address—On Envato, to email MotionApe, I have to type a message into their interface. It doesn’t show an address, and there appears to be no way to add an attachment through the interface.
Actually, I already replied your email. Anyway, my email address is email@motionape.com
I haven’t received any email – please re-send to fabulous38134@yahoo.com
I’ve just sent.
Followed all instructions. I locate the coordinates for 2 map locations. Cut and paste coordinates to map generator. Click Download Map Images. First map works fine zooms in & out but the 2nd doesnt even show. What am I missing ?
Hi, I need more information about the issue you had. Did you download the map images properly?
Hi Guys,
I’m having issues with map generator. I have loaded my to location coordinates but the map generator is creating a white screen. Please help!
Hi, Sorry for the issue You have to save as the project file to the folder where the original toolkit file in. This will be fixed in the next update.
Hi MotionApe,
I have saved it to the original folder and restarted the computer, still not working. Please advise on a solution.
Can you provide me a screenshot of your folder please?
Please see dropbox link attached for screenshot of folders.https://www.dropbox.com/s/eyhvqq2dc7ff31s/Screen%20Shot%202017-06-22%20at%2014.49.19.png?dl=0
Thanks. You have to save the project file into the “Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit v3.0\Project Files\01 Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit” folder.
Hi, The map generator sits on a white screen, If I send you the co-ordinates can you render this out for me? Mac OS 10.12.5/Adobe CC 2017. Thanks
Hi,

hello, how to export for example only animated text 06 but without background (transparent background)?
Since this template uses either google or bing maps, can this template only be used for personal projects, or can it be used for trade shows, and commercial projects? I can’t seem to find any information about attribution in the source files, or documentation.
Followed all the install instructions but when I come to generate the images for the desired co-ordinates, I get the following message pop up…
‘MapGenerator cannot be opened because of a problem.
Check with the developer to make sure MapGenerator works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X.’
Any ideas? I’m running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5
Thanks
Tom
I have asked my programmer about it and will update you as soon as possible.
The minimum mac version requirement is 10.9, please make sure you didn’t unzip the script and copied from windows, which may cause this problem.
thanks for the quick response but it still isn’t working. Is there a way to delete and reinstall? I definitely copied the correct Mac scripts and also tried updating OSX. I get the same message
done
I am running this project in Mac Os Sierra AE CC v14.2 and MapGenerator stalls at about 13%. Please advise. Thx.
I’ve asked my programmer about it. I will let you know when I have an answer.
I solved it by rebooting my Mac and it works now. 
However, I need to put in a custom image or video from a drone for my first closest layer to earth that is closer than your maximum zoom level of 8. How would I add that? Can I add another Scene 01 Level 09?
I am glad you’ve sorted it out.
There is no way to zoom in more. I think the best way to do that is a quick scale translation between two footages.
Hi, I’m editing the project but when i’m trying to change the text for contents 01 the text I’m typing is not what is shown on screen. when i press “B” I get an “A” this happens with item 3 and 5
Hi, please move the time indicator in the timeline window. If it still looks wrong send an email from my profile page.
Hi, is it possible to choose between aerial, roads and aerial with labels earth view?
Hi, Choosing map style will be added on the next update.
Amazing template! I’m looking to display this on clear glass and we want the globe to look as if it is floating, any way we could change the background to white or remove the background color or anything else in the globe scene? Thank you!
You are looking for the “starfield” composition. It can be found in the “04 PRE-COMPS -> Textures” folder. You can hide the current layers to remove background or add a solid layer with whatever color you want.
Thank you!
map is not downloading
Please make sure that you saved as the project file to the main project folder (Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit v3.0\Project Files\01 Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit)
Are you sure that you have purchased the right template?
Hi, after downloading last update and followed the instruction step by step, when I click ‘register’ at the script UI nothing happens, keep loading and freeze the panel… I have checked my network and was perfect, waiting fir more than hour and also nothing happened. Please help
Hi, you are probably behind a firewall which restricts you connecting Envato’s API server. Please turn the firewall down and try again.
Thanks for your swift replay, My mac firewall is turned off and problem still exist. the toolkit old version was working fine before I download last update.
Hi, we are investigating the issue. I will let you know as soon as we find a solution. In order to avoid further delay, I can generate map images for the coordinates that you want to zoom in. So you can keep working with the template. If it is okay for you please send me an email from my profile page. Thanks.

Hi That’s a really great project! Is it possible, to increase the numers of items/locations from 10 to for example 20? Thank’s a lot!
Hi,
Actually, there is very easy way to do that.
1- Set your coordinates 1 to 10 and render it.
2- Duplicate the Toolkit project file for coordinate 10 to 19 and render it as well.
3- Import two rendered video clips into After Effects.
4- Trim the first video when the camera zooms in for the last location.
5- Trim the second one when the camera zooms in for the first location.
6- Combine the two clips and render it
Hi, Yes indeed, that’s an easy way. Thank you so much for your prompt response!
You’re welcome.
Hi again I have a probleme to download and generate the maps with AE CS6. I have tried both: Google and Bing Map to download the 10 locations. But after 10 Minutes the downloade is still not finished or AE is not reacting any more. Do you have some tips?
Did the script generate any map images during this time? Did it stop while generating a specific coordinate?
No, the “Preparing-map”-window stays white all the time. So I have not the impression that there are any map images generated by the script.
No, the “preparing map”-window stays white. So there are probably no map images downloaded. I tried it also with only one location – without any success.
No, the “generator map”-window stays blank/white. So I do not think, there are any map images downloaded. I even tried it with only one location – unfortunately without any success.

You have to save as the project file to the folder where the original project file is.
Okay, that was the problem! Thanks a lot!
When I try to introduce the coordinates in the application and I validated it the program hung up (Window goes blank).
You have to save as the project file to the main project folder (Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit v3.0\Project Files\01 Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit)
Hi in Windows (10) and After Effects (Last update) Tutorial “02 Generating map images.mp4” (02:00 min) didn’t work! When I click on “Download Map Images” the “map_generator” stays white / is blocked!! Help me please!

Not at all
Hi, I am running this from a mac, followed your instructions and when I click ‘register’ at the script UI nothing happens… Any ideas? cheers
I’ve contact with my programmer about the issue. I will let you know as soon as we find a solution.
Here’s his answer. Please let know me know the result.
“I think this situation occurs when the user has network connection problems. If the user has network problems, they may have to wait 10 seconds before the script noticing them the registration fail. If he waited more than 10 seconds and still nothing happen, then I’ll investigate the problem more.”
Hi, We are working on a new registration method of the “Ultimate Earth Zoom Toolkit”. We aren’t able to reproduce the problem that you had on our computers. We need you to test the new method. Could you please send me an email from my profile page, please.
