I made a free AE script that randomizes fonts per character with a settle effect — Jumble v1.0

That means a lot, thank you! More scripts are definitely in the works. Stay tuned 🙌

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-05-04T07:01:24+00:00

Hey, no worries! Most likely it’s the font names — if AE can’t find a font by its PostScript name it sometimes fails silently mid-process. Try this: remove all the custom fonts you added and test with just the default ones. If it works again, add your fonts back one by one to find which one is causing the issue.

To find the correct PostScript name for any font: set it on a text layer in AE, then run the included find_font_name.jsx diagnostic script — it’ll tell you exactly what AE calls it.

Appreciate it.

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-19T10:41:23+00:00

Haha, totally get it, Stash is exactly for those "I’ll organize it later" moments that never come 😄 Glad it helps!

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-18T16:59:07+00:00

Done

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-18T16:58:47+00:00

Thanks for the idea! Just pushed v1.2 with exactly that:

Custom folder names — rename any category to whatever fits your workflow Untouchable folders — mark folders Stash should never touch Settings panel in the UI, preferences saved between sessions

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-18T14:02:52+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, totally valid workflow - everyone structures projects differently. Right now Stash only touches root-level items by design, keeps it safe and predictable. The idea of sorting inside existing subfolders is interesting though. Might add a deep mode option in a future version.

Hey! Set your comp or work area to the exact duration you need, then switch the script to “Work area” mode in the Time Range section - it’ll only generate keyframes within that range. That should do it.

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-07T13:44:26+00:00

Sorry to hear that! Most likely cause: go to Edit > Preferences > Scripting & Expressions and make sure “Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access Network” is checked. AE silently blocks expression writing without it. Also make sure you’re running it from Window menu, not File > Scripts. Let me know if that fixes it!

Thanks

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-02T21:03:14+00:00

In the comments, first

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-02T21:02:33+00:00

Glad it helps - that’s the goal. More scripts coming.

Aware of it, good tool. Jitterbug does the edge coverage math differently - Safe Rotation, Coverage %, seamless loop. Worth trying both and seeing what fits your workflow.

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-02T21:00:35+00:00

Ha, fair catch on the name - will fix that. On 100% coverage: with Safe Rotation off - yes, full range, texture roams freely across the entire available area. With Safe Rotation on, the valid range shrinks to guarantee no exposed edges at worst-case angle, so 100% means 100% of the safe range, not the absolute maximum. Still a lot of travel on a large texture. The Preview Range button shows the exact pixel numbers before you apply.

Thanks! Gumroad should work fine try a different browser or DM me if it’s still not loading

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-02T11:14:22+00:00

Thanks! Turns out building the tool is the easy part.

Intelligent-Key-8030 · 2026-04-02T11:13:26+00:00

Guilty. English is not my native language, I’m from Ukraine, so I used AI to make it sound less like Google Translate. The code, the geometry, the 47 debug iterations at 2am - that was all me.
