As far as general updates, I was told there will be no updates for upcoming months as they work on a fully refactored plugin. How many months, will we go without an updated, was not specified.

If you could do that, I think that would be a great gesture to us users and keep us from feeling frustrated. At the very least, I'd love to see the current version updated to be compatible with 2018, as 2018 is supposed to be much more stable than the quite buggy 2017

From a practical standpoint, seeing some updates along the way of refactored plugin's progress would help prevent what happened the first time the plugin was refactored....which was the plugin being created in a vacuum and it ended up having to be scrapped in the end because it didn't meet the needs of any of the users. Even if it's not releasing test builds but some screenshots/videos or whatever.

@Jo and itsallgoode9,

We would need to consider with our team about the Maya 2018 support. I will update about this too.

Thank you for your patience.

Thanks, is a positive news we really need some fix we was just on big trouble with our client on a big project cause the poor motionblur option on the plug. we had to export manually so many shots with full car setups to run in standalone (pain in the neck and space) cause a motion blur at the end we render without do the schedule and use Arnold to have a proper vector pass...

We really need a plug focus to productions for such basic feature.

But really happy to know something is happening from you side.

Thanks again.
