Hi Team,
Could you please help me here. I am working with Maya 2023 on macOS Monterey. I am trying to install Unreal ARTv1, code below. I have been scouring the forum for answers on two question.
1. In Maya 2023, there is no userSetup.py in the and I am trying to set up from scratch. What directory should I save the the file so Maya executes it at startup? I have tried the following directories but no luck:
/Users/kevincoker/Library/Preferences/Autodesk/maya/2023/scripts
/Users/kevincoker/Library/Preferences/Autodesk/maya/2023
/Users/kevincoker/Library/Preferences/Autodesk/maya/scripts
2. Could I get advise on my userSetup.py script, from what I have observed the code is consise to what is expected.

Thanks in advance
