Hi

I have run into a wall again


i Just cant get this double exposure to work!
https://creativemarket.com/psddude/263802-Double-Exposure-Photoshop-Creator#/faq

I have purchased it, i tried running it but it keeps giving me errors.

The main file had 2 files, 1 was the action file the other was the pattern file

I went into the preset manager and i loaded the pattern file

I loaded the action file as well

The tutorial has suggested all i need to do is click on play and then the prompts would come up to guide me

So i selected multiple double exposure and clicked play

Then it asked me to open a mask image and then click on play

Then it asked me to paint over the area that i want to convert to a mask

Then it asked me to add a background image

Then i got an error

THE OBJECT LAYER ADD YOUR SECOND IMAGE IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE!!!!!

Then i got a message asking me to add another image for exposure effect!!!

Then an error:

ERROR:The command clipping mask is not available!!

ERROR:The object add your second image is not available!!

ERROR: The command make is not available!!!
ERROR: THE OBJECT LAYER ADD ANOTHER EXPOSURE IS NOT AVAILABLE!!

Can someone Please help!

Thank you

Errors like that could be due to incorrect layer naming.

'Actions' rely on 'unique' layer naming AND that the layers are named EXACTLY as when the action was recorded.

This is not to say that this is the problem but its worth checking if the tutorial or instructions or whatever state if the layers you provide must have specific layer names.

The errors you see are usually due to the 'action' trying to use layers that do not exist.....by name that is....they may be 'physically' there but PS won't see them if their names are wrong.

No guarantees mind but worth a try.

In reply to a PM from the OP:

The link I posted is working fine...try again....once dropped click the small 'Start Uploading Files' link.

If it still fails then sorry, I can't help you.

Regards.
