love the tut. was wondering if there are any shortcut or quick ways to get old vintage 3d shapes ie pyramids or cubes? wireframe status

Quick? Not that I know of. The pyramid is just 4 triangles shapes in AE. BUT, that is exactly what the upcoming library is going to be jam packed with. It’s good to hear what people want. More wireframes coming up!

When I duplicate the font layer – they don’t move back in the z index, the text stays 2D, rather than becoming 3D no matter how many times I duplicate the layer?
What might cause this?

Two things come to mind… the expression is not applied, or the layer’s 3D switch has not been turned on.

I can’t download the 3d preset. All I get is a new page with some text on it.

That is the preset. Right click and save the file.

I am not sure which layer you mean. What element are you talking about? There’s a lot of that stuff in the Video Rock library:

Hi Harry. Nice work, smart ideas, great tutorials. I’ll be soon a customer of you
I have the same problem as Brian and Joe; copied the text, pasted in different
texteditors, named the ending as .ffx but it’s not working on mac… Thanks for your help in advance.

Just right-click and save the file. Safari tends to open FFX files as a text file in the browser.
