Let me ask how to install this tool on 2025.
And does it still work with 2025?
Or do you suggest any other tool with similar function and still work with 2025
or the manual way, if possible (I don’t think it’s possible)
thank you very much
It won’t install on maya 2025 without a lot of work.
Looks like its set up to only work for maya 2018. You would have to update the visual studio project to work with maya 2025. Then you’d have to compile it yourself.
It also looks like that has c++ code for python. Maya 2018 is in python 2. Maya 2025 is in python 3. So you would have to update the c++ code to work with python 3.
This is probably the closest thing right now: GitHub - robertjoosten/maya-dem-bones: DemBones python bindings for use in Maya. I think it will still require work to be compatible with Maya 2025. But it doesn’t have a nice UI. You would have to make that yourself.
I have done some of that work myself here: GitHub - tbttfox/dem-bones-python: A python wrapper for EA's demBones library. Plus a pure-python Maya interface. However I have not taken the time to make it easy to use. And I don’t have time to do that right now.

thanks for letting me know. I guess I’ll wait until someone updates it for the next maya versions. Compiling it is too difficult for my level as a non-programmer.
