I have Maya 2015 Student and when I first set it up it seemed to work fine, but since I had to leave I decided not to save my first attempt to mess with the toolkit and get familiar with it. Ever since then Maya no longer has the Epic Games tab at the top. I tried re-installing Maya and now I am stuck trying to get it to recognize the Maya Tools directory. When I open Maya it asks me to locate the directory and when I select it it tells me that it is not correct. I have also tried 2014 just to see if that would be a better option but I am having the same issue. I have downloaded the newer version you provided from Dropbox and followed the instructions exactly but am still stuck at that one part. Any advice would be great. Thank you.

Check to see if you have a userSetup python file in more than one spot. Sometimes, people might have one in maya/scripts, and also in maya/versionXXXX/scripts and these will conflict.
Also, in your maya/versionXXXX/scripts folder, check to see if you have a mayaTools.txt file. If you do, open it and make sure the path there is correct, or delete it and it will prompt you once again on opening Maya to locate the tools directory.

EDIT: Btw, sorry for the late reply. Been focusing on one of our game projects and accidentally letting my inbox and forum threads go unattended.
