Hello Mathias,

That=E2=80=99ll be tricky. The =22Match Names=22 don=E2=80=99t chang= e with a new version, so you can get them from project files. But, the ve= rsion numbers are not accessible from the project file.

regards,
Satya.

Hi everyone,

I need to automatically check for AE projects whether a= ll required plugins are installed.

I can collect= the match names of all effects used in the project and compare them with= the installed ones (available in app.effects).
But what about = version numbers=3F

Is there any way to get the v= ersion number of the effects used in the project (and also of the ones th= at are installed)=3F
Or does the matchname change whenever a ne= w version of a plugin is incompatible with an older one=3F

=
Cheers,
Mathias
