Following up on our email a few days ago, we have a new version of the PugetBench for Creators app and After Effects benchmark with a fix for the After Effects issue with 3D models not loading fully. Unfortunately, this fix does NOT apply to the new release version of After Effects (25.2), which means that our Ae benchmark is still only compatible with the beta application version (currently After Effects 25.3-beta).

This requires both a new version of the PugetBench for Creators application, as well as a new 0.98.1 build of the benchmark.

You can directly download the latest version of PugetBench for Creators below:

The new After Effects benchmark should automatically load, and will be listed as "0.98.1"

If you encounter any issues, please reach out to benchmark-support@pugetsystems.com

Update Notes:

PugetBench for Creators 1.3.18

Added fix for After Effects beta to account for a bug where the “Debug Database.txt” could be in a different location than normal.

PugetBench for After Effects 0.98.1-beta:

Added support for After Effects 25.3 Beta
Removed support for After Effects 25.2
Unfortunately, the public release of After Effects 25.2 did not include some functionality required by our benchmark, which was in the 25.2 beta. This functionality IS in the new 25.3 beta, however, so the 0.98.0-beta build of the benchmark has been removed (since there are no publicly available versions of Ae it is compatible with), and the 0.98.1 build has been released with support for the Ae 25.3 beta.
