Maya UI Changer by Fidel Agbu

So if you are anything like me, you spend a LOT of time in Maya. And after a while, the default interface just starts to feel a bit… flat. MayaUIChanger by Fidel Agbu is a versatile tool that lets you do something about that by giving you proper, in-depth customisation of Maya’s entire user interface.

This is not just a colour swap. MayaUIChanger lets you choose between a selection of custom UI presets or even build your own from scratch. Want a dark theme that is actually easy on the eyes during those late night sessions? Done. Want something that matches the vibe of your studio’s pipeline? You can set that up too. It puts you in control of how your workspace looks and feels, which honestly makes a bigger difference to your day than you might expect.

But it goes further than just themes. You can also add custom startup sounds that play when you launch Maya, which is a fun little touch that makes opening your software feel a bit more personal. And if you have ever wanted to swap out that default Maya splash screen for something cooler, MayaUIChanger handles that too.

What MayaUIChanger gives you:

• A selection of custom UI presets to choose from, or the ability to create your own
• Custom startup sounds that play when Maya launches
• Replace the default Maya splash screen with your own
• Bring your favourite UI styles into Maya for a workspace that feels like yours

If you are an animator, rigger, or artist who lives in Maya every day, this is one of those quality of life tools that just makes everything feel a bit better. It is free, it is easy to set up, and once you start customising your workspace you will wonder why you did not do it sooner.
