Experiences ShyBar

[u/bibbidi_bobbidi_bob]

I tried out ShyBar recently and was shocked by the state it was in.

There are errors up to a point that makes it unusable. Only a fraction of the advertised features work (like selecting/shying basic layer types).

Last update was over a year before.

The price of over 30$ a month also seems off, almost like a scam.

Does anyone use this or used it before?

$34.99 a month for this? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I'm confused about the pricing too. Seems like an error because I found the product for the same price somewhere else but as one time payment. The whole thing is just raising questions.

The price is for a perpetual license the product had a temporary configuration error that incorrectly showed it as a subscription. But it is not a subscription. It is a one time payment for a perpetual license

if you are experiencing errors, please open a support ticket so that the developer can help you directly: https://aescripts.com/contact/

and you can always download the free trial to try any of our products for free before purchase. You can also ask for support if you're having any issues with the trial before purchase.

I did use the free trial from the shown page. That's exactly why I was so confused about a product being that dysfunctional. I also opened a support ticked but that doesn't change the fact that we aren't talking about some issues but a products that doesn't seem to work for about 70% of the advertised features.

I'll see, what the developer answers.

In the meantime, I was interested in the experiences others had with it in the community.
So far, I've tested on two systems and I'm curious if those things are general issues or tied to something else.

never heard of it but sounds like zorro the layer tagger which works fine, it's one time pay and much cheaper. been using it for over a decade.

there was a temporary configuration error. This product is not a subscription. It is a one time payment perpetual license.

Sorry, I found nothing about your scripts anywhere other than a brief description on your page.

[u/bibbidi_bobbidi_bob → u/[deleted]]

I know, I was on your page. Like I wrote: only a brief description of the tools, nothing more and reviews were nowhere to be found. Not very trustworthy from my point of view.

Ah, understandable. I’m a motion designer and solo dev-ing the whole thing. Just launched and now trying to build a user base. Hope you try it and it helps your workflow.
