# Getting started
Timelord is designed to simplify frame-based animation in Photoshop and Animate and majorly improve the export and render pipeline between apps.
# Installation
- Download ZXP/UXP Installer from aescripts + aeplugins
- Drag Timelord.zxp into ZXP Installer

- Navigate to the top Window menu, Extensions > Timelord
Manual install
If you follow all the Ae instructions and Timelord still isn't showing up in the AE Window>Extensions menu, do a manual install. You didn't do anything wrong, it just happens sometimes with extensions.
- Change the extension of the Timelord.zxp file to .zip. It might give you a dialog warning about changing the file type but ignore it.
- Unzip this file to get a folder called Timelord
- Navigate to the Adobe extensions folder:
- Win:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\CEP\extensions\
- Mac:
/Users/**username**/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CEP/extensions/
- Open the
/Library/
folder by switching to Finder and opening the top Go menu. Hold the Option key and Library will appear. - Copy this
Timelord
folder to the /extensions/ folder - Note: If you don't see these folders, go ahead and create them
- Restart Ae and look in the top Window menu for Extensions > Timelord
