For studios and productions using Rapid Rig: Modular 3, not every member or department of the team (like modeling, lighting and rendering, character effects, etc.) needs the full version of the tool. Due to the custom nodes that make RRM3 more powerful and streamlined, every user opening a scene with a RRM3 Rig needs to install the full version of RRM3. Until now.
On the bottom of the RRM3 download page, there is a RRM3 NODES Plugin for users to download.
Studio Licenses

Individual licenses
Download and share the RRM3 Nodes installers with your team. No additional licensing is required.
Updates
Just like the FULL Plugin, the NODES Plugin will receive updates and have an archive. New nodes or node changes will be far less frequent than the rest of RRM3 updates, so there will be fewer updates to this plugin. Don't be alarmed if your RRM3 FULL Plugin is much newer than the RRM3 NODES Plugin. This will be fairly common.
NOTE: Do not install the NODES Plugin if you have the Full Plugin installed
because you already have the nodes you need in the Full Plugin. On a Mac, installing the RRM3 NODES Plugin will stomp the RRM3 FULL Plugin. Windows will also run into issues. If you do accidentally install the RRM3 NODES plugin, reinstall the RRM3 FULL Plugin.
Support
This will be the first time I am managing two separate plug-ins for the same product. I have done extensive tests over the past week on both PC and Mac versions and have fixed all the issues I have come across. If you run into any problems, please let me know and I will do my best to address those issues.
