hi, sorry if this is a dumb question, but is ornatrix compatible with maya LT, or only full maya?

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in Ornatrix. Should be compatible with Maya LT, but please try the demo to be completely sure.

Hi, I tried the demo and it's saying that the plugin isn't compatible. Does this confirm that ornatrix does not work with Maya LT?

Thanks

Hi, sorry for the delayed reply. 

This was a bug, we just fixed it for build 12651. Please give it a try!

is there a link to this version?

Oh right, you are trying to use the demo, demo versions don't have nightly builds. Humm... Unfortunately you will have to wait till the next stable release (one or two weeks), I'm sorry!

I'm a bit confused. This site and Autodesk states that Maya LT does not support third party plug ins, how does it work then?

I sadly cannot afford the full Maya and I was happy to see there might be a tool usable with LT so I can create fur and hair, since X-Gen is not in there. But right now Im not sure anymore.

Hi Keno,

You are right. I wrote this post before I was aware of that, then I updated the documentation to state the fact the Maya LT does not support third party plugins. Sorry for the confusion.

Why not use a student version of Maya?

Oh, I see.

I do have and use the student version of Maya, but it wont allow me to sell my creations now and after im done with studying. ( I dont expect to get a job right away and even if, i also want to do personal models.)

Thats the whole point of considering Ornatrix in combination with MAYA LT.

 

I just thought Autodesk doesnt wants to give Indies all the fancy plugins for a low price, so getting a payable plugin seemed like another idea.

I wasnt aware they just not give any 3rd party plugin support at all. Thats really a waste, I would've loved getting Ornatrix. Dx
