What's the beta phase?

The beta phase means that the software does not yet have all the capabilities and tools, and that there are bugs and issues that need to be resolved. This is a long phase where faults, bugs, and errors are identified and corrected. New tools are also implemented, or those that are half-developed are finished.

While you can use TheKeyMachine in production, it is highly recommended to take the necessary steps to secure your work (save your scene frequently, make backups, etc). You will certainly encounter problems, tools that do not work as expected, or that simply do not work. Some can produce errors and even in the worst case, cause Maya to crash (I hope you don't experience any of these).

In most cases, you will notice minor faults and that things are not going exactly as expected. You might also see errors in TheKeyMachine interface, problems with the toolbar, and to a lesser extent with customGraph.

If you detect any faults and want to report them, please use the option "Report a bug" in TheKeyMachine config menu.
