A feature request idea for the next version: I absolutely *love* all the naming flexibility you've built in (suffix, S/R, increment.) But the one thing I often find myself doing is grouping new comp tree into a folder where I am just incrementing the version number in the folder.
So my suggestion is that under "Options" "Group Items Into Folder" you might add an increment last number in folder name option.
For now you can use AE Global Renamer to rename the folders any way you want.
great script! I try many, but only use two: BG Renderer and... this (so it is time to donate...)
but anyway if you will make another version there are my 2 cents: - if "increment" is selected then on end please select duplicated comp instead of source comp - this allows multiple clicks for batch duplications. - and maybe add option to supress final "OK" dialog?
I am using After Effects CC 2014.2 Release. Version 13.2.0.49 on PC and the True Comp Duplicator is not working. It is missing the Duplicate Selected button on the UI. Is there a fix?
Hi, couldn't find you on Twitter, to thank you, so logged in here, just to say, this script is fantastic. (the exclude option is brill) I was looking for something like this about 4 years ago. And couldn't find any. Wow. Will you (or have you) made a version that works on the Creative Cloud versions of "after effects". I occasionally consider upgrading - but having just discovered this script - I would be reluctant. ;-) Probably going to save me about 5 hours on this job I am just starting. Thank you !!! Jonathan

Been using TCD for a long time on my Mac, but recently switched to Windows.
I'm using True Comp Duplicator for AE CC 2014 on Windows 8.1. I've got version 3.9.7 installed but I just don't have the 'Duplicate Selected' button to actually duplicate a comp.
I also went back to reinstall version 3.4 and 3.1. Same problem... it all loads fine and looks fine, except it's missing the most important button.

Just thought I'd let you know.

Do you have a hi-dpi display? There is a known bug in CC2014 and CC2015 from Adobe that does not render certain ScriptUI Panels correctly on Win8.1 systems connected to a high dpi display. The only fix at the moment is to either use a non-hidpi display or a different version of AE or OS. You should file a bug with Adobe so they fix it (the more users that report it the more likely they are to fix it soon) you can report it here: http://adobe.com/go/wish
same issues here as Clément Pinel (TCP v3.9.4 / CC 2015 / German): "Impossible to execute the script at line 157. After Effects (error) : impossible to convert Unicode characters." Must be a problem with the program language. I switched the program language to english … voilà, it works! Would be also great for other people to get a fix.

This is an Adobe bug with foreign characters like accents and umlauts, etc in the names of the the timeline label colors. Just remove any foreign characters from there and it will remove that error. You should also update to the latest version of TCD which is 3.9.7 at the moment.
I just updated to the latest version of this for AE CC2015 and now when I click on the Duplicate Comp button nothing happens. Any pointers would be great thanks.

The script is awesome and when I use it it save tons of time and do things than cant be done otherwise!!!
I use the script to dublicate 10-20 times an after effects character (not for first time) which includes 40-50 animations 115 comps and precomps totally.
