Mimic3-v1.5.1

Mimic for Maya 2022+

As of Maya 2022, Maya ships with Python 3. This latest build is designed to work with Maya 2022 and later. Another change that has affected Mimic is that Maya no longer ships with PyMEL, a library that Mimic relies on, which instead needs to be installed in Maya using pip. Because of this, I have decided to remove the other external libraries that Mimic relies on (numpy, pyqtgraph, pyserial, and Qt.py) from the build, and instead have users install them using pip. See below for these additional installation instructions.

Additional Installation Steps

• On MAC: Open Terminal and run the following command, replace maya202x with the Maya release you're using (e.g. maya2024):

  /Applications/Autodesk/maya202x/Maya.app/Contents/bin/mayapy -m pip install numpy pyqtgraph pyserial pymel Qt.py
  

• On PC: Run Command Prompt as an administrator and run the following command, replace maya202x with the Maya release you're using (e.g. maya2024):

  "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya202x\bin\mayapy.exe" -m pip install numpy pyqtgraph pyserial pymel Qt.py
  

note: because the external modules are now installed with pip, there is a single build of Mimic for both Mac and PC
