This is the flagship feature. It allows you to place a layer inside a composition and "map" it using the UV data.
: A parameter that directly displays the point pass, making it easier to sample specific points in 3D space for matte generation. Performance and Compatibility
Bring the render and your new 2D texture into After Effects. Apply: Drop ft-UVPass on the 3D render layer.
For anyone who has ever been frustrated by the rigid, render-heavy process of updating 3D objects, the is an essential upgrade to your toolkit. It offers a powerful and elegant way to re-texture and isolate 3D objects entirely within After Effects, dramatically speeding up the iteration and compositing process. With its affordable price and support for the latest After Effects features like Apple Silicon and MFR, it delivers professional functionality without breaking the bank.
To achieve professional results, users should follow these technical guidelines: AEScripts ft-UVPass Bundle v5.5.1a for After Ef...
It creates 3D masks that stay attached to objects, even if the camera moves or the object deforms.
Using , you can take a flat 2D image (like a logo, label, or dirt map) and "project" it onto your 3D rendered object.
The bundle includes two primary tools that bring "Nuke-style" compositing workflows to After Effects:
The bundle retails for on the official aescripts + aeplugins marketplace, offering high-efficiency capabilities that were previously restricted to specialized node-based compositing software like Foundry Nuke. Key Components of the Bundle This is the flagship feature
: Re-textures 3D objects directly inside After Effects by utilizing a UV pass map (also called an ST map) generated from your 3D software.
Any professional 3D software that allows you to render out a "UV/ST" map and a "World Position Pass." This includes Blender, Cinema 4D, Maya, 3ds Max, Houdini, and Redshift.

For sci-fi interfaces, holographic displays, or screen replacements on moving 3D devices, ft-UVPass ensures that your 2D screen graphics perfectly adhere to the surface contours of the 3D model, maintaining pixel-perfect alignment through complex camera moves.

Isolating complex 3D objects in post-production traditionally required exporting dozens of custom object buffers or puzzle mattes. ft-PPass2Matte solves this by .
: Uses a Position Pass (PPass) to create 3D masks. These masks are attached to the geometry, allowing you to isolate parts of a 3D scene even as the camera moves. Key Features & Performance
Create sophisticated, attached mattes for applying effects to specific 3D elements. Conclusion
