I cant get Magic Bullet to work on AE CS3, its perfectly fine on our AE7 but when I try and get it to run on CS it wont.

For a start it doesnt install to the CS folder, I move the MB folders to the AE plugins folder and it appears in the effects list, but when I try and use the look suite or magic bullet options I get an error;

After effects error: main() of magic bullet caught an unknown exception. (512)

( 25 :: 101 )

Any help?

I was able to install it to the CS3 folder no problem by browsing during the install when it asks which folder do you want to install it to.

Ive tried installing it to Adobe After Effects CS3\Support Files\Plug-ins

without any luck, this is the right place I assume?

Yep....nothing as of yet, but I really want MB 2.1 to work with AECS3 because CS3 is so much faster at everything than 7.0, especially since upgrading to a Core 2 Duo 2.66 @ 3.2
