Pixelsoul, it still comes with the Bonus Tols, and loads just as it does in 7 from the plug-in manager.

Can't see it in the tools and the help does not mention it in Maya 8 (searched for word Pelt). I don't belive it does have it. But I did find this, if you didn't know about it.

I don't do any Pelting, so not sure. If they had a version for 8 I am sure the site would have mentioned it.

Pelting tools was an addon supplied by a 3rd party and featured on the old community site by Alias. It was for Maya 7, but if you have a C++ compiler and the Pelting Tools source code you could recompile for Maya 8.
