Exocortex Species 1.50
Exocortex Species 1.5 Released!
Species 1.5 is now available at Exocortex.com. This is the third major update in six months that adds functionality and further optimizes user work flow.
What is Species?
Exocortex Species simplifies the process of human character creation from designing your character’s unique attributes, integrating sculpting results, to rig creation, even animation. With Species, you will create higher quality animated characters faster and at a lower cost, while avoiding the generic look that often come when purchasing off-the-shelf models. Exocortex Species supports Autodesk Softimage 2010 through 2013 on both Windows and Linux. Floating and node locked licenses are available starting at $299.

Re: Exocortex Species 1.50
In 2016, when Exocortex Momentum & Implosia were made available for free, I inquired with Ben Houston if Species were to be made available for free as well, but he told me then, that this wasn't about to happen...
What you could try, however, is the addon "growrig", which was a precursor to Species (obviously less powerful), which strangely is still available (follow the link on the bottom of this page)
