Byrons Poly Tools Help

[fraserad]

Hi,

I recently got a copy of the humanoid modelling DVD and it says you need byrons poly tools.

Does byron's poly tools work with maya 8.5? and if so is it really necessary to buy or can i cope easily with out it??


And do professionals in the industry use this plug-in ?? or will using it be getting me into bad habbits?

thankyou
sorry if the questions are asked alot / stupid

Last i heard, Byron's poly tools has not been updated since v.6 and does not appear to be updated any time soon. With that said though i don't think you'd need it to follow along. It may just take a bit longer to do the same things with maya's default tools rather than the plugin. For a newer plugin that is similar to what BPT was, check out NEX. at : http://draster.com/

Amazing tool from checking out the trial version.


Hope this helps,

George
