* We have two options on our download page:
  1. **HEAT Bridge** - This is the one stop shop for our Blender, Unity, and Daz 3D plugins.  This link will download a package that includes our HEAT Bridge - a program that will connect your plugins to the HEAT Marketplace - and all three plugins for easy installation.  Make sure you read the README.txt file within the package.
  2. **Unreal Plugin** - At this time our Unreal Plugin does not use the HEAT Bridge and as such is download independently for ease of use.  The Unreal link will redirect you to the Unreal Marketplace where you can easily download and install HEAT to your Unreal Engine project.

{% hint style="warning" %}
HEAT Bridge is currently only available on Windows.  A Mac build is coming soon.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
From the homepage you can click your profile picture in the top right corner of the screen and then select **'My Profile'** to be redirected to your user dashboard.  From here you can click on **'Edit Profile'** on the left hand side to add your name, location, bio, and upload your own profile picture if you wish to.
{% endhint %}

Next we will walk you through how to explore animations on the HEAT Library.
