Overall a good product and easily worth the price. The export to UE4 feature produces a UE4 mannequin-compatible skeleton which is an important system requirement if you want to sell animations and / or skeletal meshes on the Unreal Engine marketplace. The other features are also very useful and allowed me to easily rig and skin my character with 90% of the rigging and skinning done in a few minutes. It takes a few attempts to learn where to place the points on the body for creating a good reference skeleton. The reference bones will still require moving manually and a reclick of the Skin button (and repeat multiple times) to achieve a good skinning base. Its not perfect skinning but much better than the built-in skinning of Blender. I recommend purchasing the Voxel Heat Diffuse Skinning addon to make your skinning life even easier in areas other than the fingers, teeth, tongue or eyes because it is slightly better than the skinning in this addon. However, I have found that even with that other addon , manual corrections in the skinning will still be required to get a desirable skinned character mesh in some areas of your character unless you are making a low poly character. e.g. the fingers, teeth, tongue and eyes can need manual correction. The product is regularly updated. The level of support from Lucas is second to none and several issues that I have encountered have been promptly resolved.

Thanks for the review! Indeed there are no perfect automated solution for weight distribution, but I will look forward to improving existing tools.

Auto Rig Pro really is a big timesaver when it comes to Character Animation. It lifts of the heavy work of manually creating Skeletons and Character rigs. There are numerous options for creating more complex rigs and individual additions, yet it is easy to understand and well documented. Would recommend this for everyone who's wants to start Character Animation or is working with Unreal or Unity.

Awesome idea and was stoked to buy this; although sadly enough the plugin errors out every chance it gets and the autorigging process is not accurate. The cleaning process took me as long as a usual rig just to be met with an error which left my rig unusable. Probably a good tool if this is really what you are looking for although i would stay away from it for this price

I seem to have already figured out how to use the addon.everything works as it should for ue4. I would like you to add the export of Ik bones for the universal skeleton.because for animals like spiders, it is necessary that the legs do not fall into the ground.I recommend the addon

Dev is constantly updating the add-on and I love the notification emails because you can tell a lot of dev work went into the fine details of how this tool works. This dev definitely makes the purchase worthwhile with all of the support.

I have just started with Blender and 3D modeling not long ago. This tool helps a lot but it's not a miracle for absolute beginners. You may rig low poly characters almost perfectly and automatically, but for anything more compley you still need to have some basic understanding of rigging and weight painting. After this Autorig will save you lots of hours of manual work by shortening the repetitive workflow at complex rigs. It's a must have.

Thanks for rating! Yes, machines haven't totally replaced us yet and some manual work is needed (which is in a way reassuring ;-) ! This is what make an art piece more valuable. But maybe in the future more artificial intelligence could be used, who knows.
