Maybe I can help you cause I had the same problem.. I think that is cause the adjustment Layer must be named only "Falloff" probably cause in the code there's right that name.. So if you name it with another name the Code-Script can't work..!! )) I m trying right now and I think it s working!! (my english listening is not so good, but Andrew says it in the tutorial!!&quot

I love this preset. I know beggars shouldn't be choosers, but is there anyway to get the Falloff to work on single layers rotated off in the distance, ie so insted of having the falloff specified only by the anchor point of the layer, but where each part of the layer resides in 3D space (maybe in an update or new version)

Thanks though, you rock!!

This is pretty handy, but I wonder if there is anyway you could modify it so that the expressions are applied using thisComp and activeCamera rather than naming specific objects. I guess that would work better for some situations but not all...
