BlenRig is an Auto-rigging and skinning system for the Blender 3.1+ families. It provides the user with a Feature Film quality rig (including an advanced facial system).

The current version only supports Biped characters, but more presets will be supported in the future.

Rig creation includes:

_BlenRig armature.

_BlenRig Mesh Deform cage and Lattices.

_Already rigged Weight Transfer Meshes, for automatically weighting characters.

Usage

You will find the rig in the Object Add Panel, under the Armature Menu.

In the View3d Sidebar (N Key) you will find all controls and tools. Rig your character by adding the BlenRig rig to the scene and then starting up the Automated Rigging Guides in the Rigging Assistant section of the BlenRig GUI.
