I tried installing this for After Effects CS5.5, but it isn't appearing in the Effects menu.
I pasted in the 32-bit version of VCReflect.aex into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS5.5\Support Files\Plug-ins
Is this correct?
Thanks in advance.

Interesting side effect. Not sure if this is intentional or just missed in the tut but:
I set up a text layer, made it 3D, precomped it, set the reflection up looking straight on and when I rotated the 3D layer in the master comp (where my pre comp was nested) I didn't need to skew the reflection. It matched my rotation on the y axis.
Good Stuff - Andrew you rock man!

Hi Fab Tutorial as ever,
I downloaded the reflect fx but it doesn't work on my 32bit AE CS4, so i'm wondering if i've got the new 64 bit version?
Is there anywhere i can still download the old version please?
Many many thanks :)

i know this is an old tut but I had the vc reflect and it worked for me. My computer crashed and lost the plugin. I download the latest plugin but I can not seem to make this work. I can not find out how to shorten the reflection. Duh. Can not find a tut on this version. Please help.

Don't know if this will help you, but this happened to me: running 64bit Windows and copied the 64bit plugin into the right folder, but it didn't show up in AE. However, I tried copying the 32bit version in there and it worked fine.
Many thanks to Andrew and co for taking the time put it together, it's saved me hours.

Hey Andrew K. in Turkey , people couldn't find any tutorials about the Ae. ?f they find ,it will be bad and unquality everytime. Also there is no source which is in Turkish language. I think it is not only Turkey's problem but also in all countries which are not speak English suffer from that. My suggestion is that ; you should add some basic subtitles in variety languages to your tutorials. If you do that i am sure your web site's followers will increase.

Hi Andrew, thx a lot for this great plugin; it looks great! However, I keep getting the error "RAM preview needs 2 or more frames to playback" when i try a RAM preview. When i turn the effect off the problem is gone. Have played around with the memory and multiprocessing settings but still no luck. I am working in AE CS4 on a Mac with 4GB memory. Hope you can help 'cause i'd really like to make this work...

It doesn't work in CS5 because After Effects CS5 is a 64 bit application only so previous pluggins will not work, you will need 64 bit pluggins if they are available.

If the box is 2 or 3x thicker then the one in the example the angle is way too harsh for the bottom reflection created from this plugin to look good -- even with the skew adjustments. Does anyone have any advice?

Hi Andrew,
Thanks a lot for the tutorial. I loved your reflection plug-in, it works very well in designing part. I have a problem with the reflection plug-in while rendering. I'm using CS3 and macpro however my computer gives the rendering time 6 hours. ? tried with the 6 hours, but after rendered, it wasn't render..I used to try the mac 32bit version. Do you have any advice for me? Best,

Thanks for the great timesaver... I often wondered why AE's Mirror plugin didn't contain many of these parameters... One thing I'd love to see - Transfer Mode choice.
Also, thank you for being so benevolent about your incredible skill. You've raised the level of my work through your great tutorials.
