If you're on Maya 2016 download the zip file from here: This isn't super necessary for our course, but it does provide some nice autocomplete features in our editors. Unfortunately from Maya 2016 onwards, Autodesk stopped shipping the Maya developer kit with Maya.

P圜harm Edu is a version of P圜harm with a simplified interface (optional) and coursework that will help a user learn Python in their spare time. I would recommend downloading P圜harm Edu from here: P圜harm is a very well established IDE with a lot of useful features for a beginner to both learn with and grown into a full fledged developer. These changes are for the better but due to large investment into Python 2 code, Maya will continue to be on Python 2 for a while longer. The latest version of Python is Python 3.5, however Python 3.x has introduced many breaking changes to Python. Maya 2017 uses Python 2.7 and this is also the agreed upon standard by the VFX Reference Platform Maya 2014-2016 also use Python 2.7, whereas Maya 2011-2013 use Python 2.6. Please remember to download the Python 2.7 version It is a packaged version of Python that comes with a lot of great libraries prebuilt for you, and is much easier to get started with than the official Python. If you do not already have Python installed, I recommend downloading Anaconda instead. Obviously, this course will use Python, but it is important to note we will be using Python 2.7 and not Python 3.x You can download a Maya 2017 trial here:
