After Effects Plugin License Removal
Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR
I have a JavaScript-based After Effects plugin that currently stops at a licence-key prompt. I want the key check stripped out so the tool runs freely inside After Effects without altering any of its creation or edit features.
You’ll receive the full original script, plus a short video showing where the licence gate appears. Your task is to analyse the code, locate every validation call and dependency, then deliver a cleaned script that loads in the current After Effects release exactly as the original—just without the activation step.
Because the add-on is written in Adobe ExtendScript / JSX, solid JavaScript reverse-engineering skills are essential. I’m happy for you to use ESTK, VS Code, or any de-obfuscation utilities you prefer, as long as the final file is human-readable and easy to maintain.
Deliverable
• Patched .jsx or .jsxbin file ready to copy into the AE Scripts folder
• Brief changelog noting the functions you removed or replaced
• Quick test clip or screenshot proving the tool launches with no licence prompt
Acceptance criteria
1. No licence or serial request on start-up.
2. All original creation/edit functions behave exactly as before.
3. Code remains compatible with the latest After Effects update on both Windows and macOS.
If you’ve tackled similar plugin patches or have experience pulling apart obfuscated JSX, please let me know—speed and reliability matter to me more than anything.
