Chump NFT Engine stands out in the aescripts library for keeping NFT collection artwork and metadata generation inside After Effects. Version 2.1 cleared a critical PNG export bug affecting 29.97 fps compositions.
Chump NFT Engine is an After Effects tool from Block Chumps for assembling and generating NFT collection artwork together with its metadata. Both the artwork and the metadata are generated directly from After Effects. Artwork is exported as PNG files.
The current release is version 2.1, dated February 25, 2023, which fixed a critical bug that caused PNG exporting to fail when a composition's frame rate was 29.97. That followed the 2.0 initial release in December 2022. Compatibility spans After Effects 2023, 2022, and 2021.
A demo video is available on YouTube for anyone wanting a look before installing. For current documentation, release notes, and licensing details, the developer's page from Block Chumps is the best place to check before adding it to a project.
Chump NFT Engine is best for artists and developers building NFT collections who want to assemble the artwork and generate metadata inside After Effects.
Chump NFT Engine is completely free to download and use.
Chump NFT Engine lists compatibility with After Effects 2023, 2022, and 2021, so recent releases across those three versions are covered. If you're running one of these versions, the tool is built to assemble and generate NFT collection artwork and metadata directly inside After Effects. For versions outside this range, or to confirm the latest supported builds, check the developer's page before installing, since compatibility can shift as After Effects updates and as the plugin itself receives new releases.
Chump NFT Engine 2.1, released on February 25, 2023, fixed a critical bug that caused PNG exporting to fail when a composition's frame rate was 29.97. This followed the 2.0 initial release from December 16, 2022. If you were exporting collection artwork from 29.97 fps compositions on an earlier build and running into failed PNG exports, updating to 2.1 addresses that specific issue. For the full history and any releases beyond 2.1, the developer's page is the place to check.
Chump NFT Engine is listed as free here. Licensing terms can change over time, so for the current details, including any usage conditions attached to the release, the developer's page from Block Chumps is the definitive source.

Before relying on it for a project, confirm the latest licensing directly with Block Chumps rather than assuming terms from older information.
