Quote:Other tools bring one piece over: a pivot tool, a keymap, a shelf. This rebuilds the set together — hotbox and marking menus, Channel Box and Attribute Editor, menu sets, shelves and option windows — on top of Blender’s own tools. Installing it changes nothing until you choose Maya.

Enabling the extension adds a small Maya | Blender switch at the right of the top bar, an Edit menu entry, the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+Shift+M and, once, a welcome dialog. Your keymap, theme, layout and preferences stay as they are.

Choose Make Blender feel like Maya and the kit adds its Maya-style keys, menus and panels and the Maya layout in the open file. It never touches your theme, preferences or active keymap. Click Blender in the switch and Blender’s own keys and UI are back; switch again whenever a tutorial uses Blender’s own keys.

Quote:I spent years in Maya. When I finally tried to move to Blender, the software wasn’t really the problem. My hands were. I’d hold Space and nothing would pop up, I’d look for the Channel Box that wasn’t there, and every few minutes I’d catch myself reaching for a shelf. I made this hoping that people like me, who are used to Maya, can settle into Blender a little more easily.

To be honest, it’s still rough in places. Some Maya tools aren’t there yet, and some don’t feel quite right. I use it myself and I’ll keep improving it, but I can only fix what I know about. So if something breaks, feels off, or you miss a Maya feature you use every day, please leave an issue. Even a one-liner helps a lot. Want to help in other ways? Anything goes — see CONTRIBUTING.md.

Thanks for giving it a try ?
