Hi cedrich. The message you received is correct. There’s no need to install anything if you are using AE2024, you can simply start using the project and everything should work just fine. The script files were created with an older version of After Effects but with the release of the newer versions they became compatible without the need to install them first. If you are still experiencing any problems please send me a direct message via my profile page.

Hi 2bitprog. Sorry to hear that you’re disappointed with the way licensing works. Unfortunately that is out of my control as an author. If you have any more questions or concerns, please do reach out to envato and let them know. Here’s a link to the Help Center.

Hi Mark123. Sorry to hear you’re having problems with DTK. We just did a test using AE 17.7 on Mac and it worked perfectly fine. One thing to note is that the project was created with an older version of After Effects that required the installation of the script for it to work. But with the newer versions of AE there is no need to install the script. It works even without the installation of the script. And installing the script should not be causing a problem. After Effects will just ignore it. The reason for the error message is simply because AE doesn’t recognize the script but it shouldn’t be creating any problems when installing. I would suggest trying to first open the DTK project by itself and then saving it as a new project with the latest AE version you’re on. And then you can try either importing your project into that new project file you saved or importing the new DTK project into your own project. These are simple workarounds that should not waste your valuable time. But if you still feel that you’re not satisfied and would like to get a refund, we’d be happy to approve the refund after you make the request through envato. Simply click HERE to learn about the process and follow the links to make the request.

Hi currysteph and thanks for your interest. Unfortunately no symbols other than what you see in the preview. Sorry about that. Maybe on the next update.

Hi filterblurs, thats a great question but it gets complicated depending on how you use the template. Under both the Regular and Extended licenses you are able to create one single End Product for yourself or for one client. You can then make any number of copies of the single End Product. For example, let’s say you use DTK to build an opener for your YouTube channel. You are able to use that finished video multiple times on your YouTube videos. The main difference between the Regular and Extended licenses is whether you are offering your End Product for free (your YouTube audience) or you will be selling your End Product. Most likely you would use the Regular License since you are offering your video free to watch on YouTube. Hope this answers your question but if you need more information check out the links posted above or check out the Standard Licenses page or the License FAQs page.

How do I install the effects, now that the scripts are no longer needed. Your tutorial doesn’t reflect the new changes in AE2020. Do I import the file?

Hi feliciaz, thanks for your purchase and sorry for the confusion. There’s no need to install anything if you are using AE2020, you can simply start using the project and everything should work just fine. The script files were created with an older version of After Effects but with the release of the newer versions they became compatible without the need to install them first. You should be good to go and start enjoying DTK.

Hi boram8091, thanks for your purchase. The project was created with an older version of After Effects but we’ve tested it on After Effects 2020 and there shouldn’t be any problems with its operation. What does the error message say exactly? If you could please contact us via email through our profile page and give us more details we can help you further. Thanks.

Hi sylvain72. Not sure I quite understand your question. I believe you’re asking to provide the project files for the animation presented in the preview video. If so, unfortunately we cannot provide that as it is not part of the item we are selling. We apologize for any confusion. At the bottom of the description of the item you can find the following message:

This is not a video template. It is a kit of elements that can be used to create your own or add to other projects. The example animations in the promo video are for illustration purposes only.

Once again, we apologize if there was any confusion.

No Problem, i understand, i have already find out… Thanks.

Ok…thanks for your quick reply. You graze over this so quickly and this is suppose to be for beginners. I drag and drop the letters or numbers onto a new composition and have enabled the “collapse transformation”. Thank you for that. But how do I adjust things like color using the “controllers”. Your tutorial only shows that from the “ABC” composition but not starting from scratch. Do I copy this “controller” layer onto my letters and numbers? pardon the seemingly obvious answer but Im a beginner

NVM…I see the controller controls it all…as a newbie seeing a tutorial where you start from scratch instead of the ABC composition would be helpful…your project is great be your tutorial is not geared towards newbs like me i suppose. thanks!

Hi houseofshameless. I sincerely apologize if the tutorial video is not as helpful for you as a beginner. I tried to include as many things as I could in order for an AE user of any skill level to be able to understand but I may have grazed over a few things and I do apologize for that. I’ve been using AE for many years and creating content is a lot easier for me than creating tutorials lol. If you have any further questions I’m still here for you regardless. Thanks again for your purchase and enjoy DTK.

Hi houseofshameless, thanks for your purchase. The script is provided to allow for proper functionality of the controls in the effects panel. As far as having that functionality, there are no further steps needed if you are using the latest version of AE. The script is only required for older versions of AE, and as you mentioned, there is no need to install if you are on the latest version. You can proceed to use the project with confidence. For more information on how to use the project, please refer to the tutorial included and if you have any further questions just send us a message via our profile page. Thanks and hope you enjoy DTK.

Got it! I had to simply open the AE file!

Hi danielcestari, thanks for your purchase. Unfortunately the project hasn’t been fully tested on the latest versions of AE. However, the project should still work since there are no plugins or anything that would make it incompatible with the latest versions. Disregard the installation of the script since the latest versions of AE don’t require that installation. If you run into any problems let us know by sending us a direct message via our profile page and we’d be happy to help. Good luck and hope you enjoy DTK.

Hi TT_252. This template only includes letters in the English alphabet. The letters are pre-designed and animated and cannot be changed to a different font or alphabet. Our apologies for the inconvenience.

Hi HellerD. Haven’t seen that error before and just opened it again in CC 2017 and all looks good on our end. I would say make sure your CC 2017 is up to date. The latest version for CC 2017 should be 14.2.2 If you have any other questions or concerns feel free to send us a direct message via our profile page.

Hi albere132. There’s no need to install the script files if you are using the latest version of AE. The script files were created with After Effects CS5 but with the release of the newer CC versions they became compatible without the need to install. In other words, you can ignore the script files and use the template as is. Thanks for your purchase and hope you enjoy using DTK.

Hi mfaliski, sorry I don’t understand the question. You can send us a direct message through our profile page and explain your question in detail. Thanks.

Hi treehouseking, Not exactly sure what you mean by “mask”. Possibly you are referring to the characters getting cropped outside of the comp layer. You must enable collapse transformations in order to see the animations go outside of the comp layer boundaries. This is explained in detail at 3:02 in the tutorial video. Hope this helps and if not please send us a direct message via our profile page. Thanks for your purchase and hope you enjoy using DTK.

YESSSSSSSS! THATS IT!!!!! Thank you so much! AWESOME PRODUCT.

Hi mlwlbel, thanks for your purchase! There’s no need to install the script files if you are using the latest version of AE. The script files were created with After Effects CS5 but with the release of the newer CC versions they became compatible without the need to install. You should be good to go and start enjoying DTK.

Hi Barchtic. Thanks for your interest in DTK. Yes, you would have to drag and drop each comp. However, the project was built in a very user-friendly way. I can provide a link to the tutorial video so you can see the way it works before purchasing. Please send me a direct message through my profile page and I can reply with a link to the tutorial video for you to check out.
