Guys, HUGE request, once again: can you please update your "Downloads" section as soon as something was released?
Right now tracking new releases is more like a hunt...

Any news on Bifrost?

Asked this on a different post but may be more appropriate here:

If I load the 4.01 maya plugin (Subscriptions version) into Maya 2018

Can I also instal the 2018.1 xb1-14.0 plugin and just load which ever one I want to mess with and it will find the appropriate standalone version?

As opposed to uninstalling and reinstalling each time?

Thanks

Peter

Hi Joss,

Not agreed with your coment because it is updated! (Maybe fore wasn't, I didn't checked but usually the stable is always updated) This version is a "BETA" is not supposed to go on downloads because is not made for production use.
This is the reason behind if you read the descriptions most of plugs and standalone works this way, only stable version is on download section, they give a particular access on the beta to help out with the development, this the reason way development sections on standalone.

Cheers,
Jo
