This script is a prime example of a developer tacking on too much bloat instead of focusing on the core of the script.
Ive been tracking AS progress over the years since back in the pre-facial days. Its a horrid script unless you plan to use it on very basic topology and completely ignore anything besides the rigging functions. Each release ive tried this, something down the line will go wrong. Something completely out of nowhere like maybe a bone doesnt tag, a control doesnt parent correctly, or even ncloth simply messing up. You wont know why or what caused.
Whats even worse? The developer charges full license price for support. No Money = No Support. Which means whatever completely random problem you've come accross will never be solved. I think its also intended so you're more likely to pay for a license which is understandable. It would take time to answer all those support emails for free. However instead of tacking on shape editors or "utilities" it wouldve been great to really stabilize the rigging section instead.
The script had amazing potential down the line. Now its a bloated mess that tacks on more than it fixes. Save yourself the headache and the uncertain reliance on this thing and learn to rig yourself. It aint hard to make your own flexible rig, just take a weekend and learn. It will take you further than this.
In theory this program wouldve been amazing. In reality it has all the stability of a drunken prom date.
Just started to get into using your plugin and well it is awesome. Can't imagin the work you have put into this brilliant plugin and offered here as a generous SHARE. Really much appreciate you generousity.
Cheers
