Epic games animation and rigging toolkit

Do you need ti have maya to be able to use the animation and rigging toolkit from epic games ir can you use without the need to have maya

The A.R.T. is a Maya plugin, so yes, you need Maya.

Is anything i can use for the same purpose beside ART that’s free

With what 3D modelling program?

P.S. The A.R.T. is free.

ART is just a helpful tool, some of the other 3D programs have features that ART adds to Maya, so it’s not necessarily essential

Unless I’m mistaken, I don’t think it even has any UE4 specific features. It’s just an advanced auto-rigger, which many programs have.

I’m using blender

The Blender equivalent would be Rigify.
