RigKit Advanced

About this script

A complete character rigging and animation toolset in one dockable panel. Build armatures for humans, animals, birds, fish or chains of your own, and let the Auto-rig give them controllers, IK, Bézier IK and FK in one go. Then link anything with constraints, connectors, key morphs and pins, bring characters to life with Kleaner, wiggle, swing, wheels and an expression-driven walk cycle, and polish the animation with keyframe, interpolation and tweening tools, an animation library, camera rigs and layer, text and comp utilities. Every tool can also be run by name from its command line.
