Excellent info guys...
Did anyone have troubles with "Edge Path Selection"or "Face Path Selection" scripts or can someone explain the use?
Do you have to open the Options for these?
I ran them and got an error.

Also I installed "Bonus Tools" first and started Maya and saw them on the menus,then installed "Bonus Game Pack" and the bonus tools are gone.
Are they the same tools?

Thanks again for this information on these excellent tools!
