RigForge places a production skeleton inside your character, gives it Mesh2Motion's professionally painted skin weights and plays 251 ready-made animations. In Blender, or in your browser with one click to Blender.
No install needed to try it: the mannequin on the right was rigged by the same engine Blender uses. The add-on runs in Blender 4.2 or newer.
This mannequin has the template skeleton dropped on it: the joints don't line up yet. Press Auto-fit.
Six short steps in one window: pick the character, check the joints, skin, animate, export. Open it with Ctrl Shift R in Blender, or in your browser.
Auto-fit reads the shape of your mesh and places every joint inside the body, then you check them one by one: press Enter when a dot looks right, drag it when it doesn't.
A camera over each hand looks straight down, so you see where every knuckle sits. A finger pass traces each finger in the mesh for you.
RigForge transfers Mesh2Motion's hand-painted weights from a reference character onto yours. Shoulders, elbows and hips bend the way a rigger would make them bend.
Walks, runs, combat, emotes and idles for every body type, retargeted to your skeleton as you click. Keep the ones you like as Blender actions.
The web studio fits, skins and animates with the same engine as the add-on. When you're ready, Send to Blender builds the rig natively in your open scene: Blender bones, pro weights, your clips as actions.
One GLB or FBX with the mesh, the skeleton and every clip, set up for where it's going.
Select your mesh and press Ctrl Shift R, or drop a file into the web studio.
