I was waiting for animal rigging all time as I started to study how to do my own rig. Human rigs are more explained in dozen of videos than animals. Thank a lot for such precious content!
Great lesson! Prior to this, I watched tutorials by this author on Rigify, but I prefer this addon more. Mainly because it's easier to work with weights in it. A small tip: if someone is having trouble attaching a horse with a saddle and other items to the bones in Voxelized mode, increase the Voxel to 10-12.
Great tutorial and great addon. However, can you show how to manually rig and connect saddle and stirrup? You said you will make separate tutorial for that :). I added limb -> Chain bendy bones, but can't parent it to original rig, to follow horse but still can be edited manually. I will have jockey on my horse and I need to animate stirrup separately since it will be moved to match jockey legs.
@@UnchartedWorlds And vice versa haha Well, I'll try to do both but if you watch the Quadruped videos, you may learn enough to rig a Dinosaur. It's mostly about how you use the leg. What kind of dino are you interested in, by the way?
Hi, I loved this Horse rigging video, Thanks for making this as well, I just have one doubt about the spine part, can we make the spine(especially rib-cage) as IK and move separately. Right now it moves with the chest controller along with it. Please make a video regarding this.Thanks!
@@RoshAnim1985 This link? blendermarket.com/products/auto-rig-pro/?ref=356 The version number is visible in Blender when you expand the addon details in the Preferences > Addons.
Hi, I am working on a horse animation and I have to put the character with the horse so I want to link the animation of the horse to just probably spine controller animation to the character and character also have a rig so I cant figure it out.
Retargeting in general, yes. Just take a look at the top of this playlist (well, they are on the top now, I may move the videos around) ruclips.net/p/PLdcL5aF8ZcJuHJFQgb4altQWs-RCKA7Bq
The next video in the series (rigging a fox) will include a face rig. You can already watch it with the paid course, link in the description :) Or wait a week or two until I release it on RUclips.
You want to either append or link the character. Ctrl c, Ctrl v is basically the same as appending. There is info about this ARP manual. I can send you the link later if you can't find it.
@@CGDive Aye, I was looking for abit more in depth guide on custom bones etc. I know you can add limbs but what about single bones for weapon slots or equipment slots? i read in docs bones are to have CC before them. Can this be done before Match Rig or after? Also there is a custom bone tab, but not sure if you covered that yet.
@@SuperMontana2008 from my experience you can just add bones before match to rig. Then after you click match to rig they'll be there with some basic parenting that you established in the reference rig. Then in the final rig you can do additional parenting and constraining. As long as you don't do anything too crazy it should ask just work.
Hello sir i am big fan of your work it is my request to you that could you pls make a tutorial how to add custom bone with Autorig pro bone armature like horse i need to attached the wing to the horse like Pegasus pls help me in this sir thank you so much love from India 💝❤💞💓💗
I'm having a bit of a hard time. My characters long sleeves are influencing his pants and when i try to weight paint check it after setting up the rig its not showing me the influence. my character has large pants too...the rig didnt quite work T_T
Yeah, I am actually very interrested by a weight painting tutorial... but like a real one, with exercices and theory behind it... how it works and all.... EVERY tutorials on weight painting on RUclips/other platform actually is just "look at how I did THIS", with no explaination whatsoever ...

Hi! Just wanted to tell you that I wouldn't have been able to successfully rig my first character without your videos.
Thank you so, so much!
That's so awesome! Keep up the great work!

Absolute amazing work my guy.
Your video helps me a lot.. 👍
Love and lot's of respect for you from my country india.... Thanks...
very good tutorials! You are a good teacher!
Glad you think so!
Check front legs pole vectors! Default bones positions were right.

thanks for best advices about auto rig pro iam wetting fox rig special mouth rigging
Thank u very much , your videos is helpful so much💯
fantastic tutorial, but I have a problem if I move the general control the legs stay in the same position
What is a "general control"?
please do a bird rigging tutorial on Auto rig pro!!
Will do :)
@@CGDive do a Dinosaur, since birds are dinosaurs, if you do a dinosaur you've also covered birds 😁👌
@@UnchartedWorlds And vice versa haha

I don't have these options when I try to add an armeture cause I guess I don't have any addon's? I also don't appear to have a pose mode

A new version of ARP was released today and it has a new control for the spine. Give it a try.
@@CGDive Sure!
@@CGDive Could you provide the link to buy because it is not showing the version number, So I am not able to see whether it is updated or not?
@@RoshAnim1985 This link? blendermarket.com/products/auto-rig-pro/?ref=356
The version number is visible in Blender when you expand the addon details in the Preferences > Addons.
@@CGDive Got it! Thanks.
Another great video, thank you so much! Already give a little support on GunRoad but following over here.
Much appreciated!

This is the day I've been waiting for since months.
Wondering if retargeting is also possible with fbx or bvh files please ?
Retargeting in general, yes. Just take a look at the top of this playlist (well, they are on the top now, I may move the videos around)
ruclips.net/p/PLdcL5aF8ZcJuHJFQgb4altQWs-RCKA7Bq
@@CGDive retargeting with a horse bvh file possible? Similar to human retargeting method?
@@jumpingfrog4323 Yeah, the process would be the same. You need mocap data of a horse. Then match the bone pairs and it should work.
Ohh I'm over the moon.my horse will get a new makeup soon. Many thanks sir, you're a god send
@@jumpingfrog4323 Nice :)
I click my mesh and shift select the armature then bind. It doesn't move my mesh ???
Can you make a full tutorial for human face rigging? (Not rigify.) make a nice stretch expression like those in one of Maya's facial test videos.
It's just awesome
When will you drop more auto rig pro videos??!!! Please
Yeah, I have some more in the works. Might take some time but I am doing my best :)
@@CGDivethank you cant wait!!!
If you can make or you have a video that shows rigging a face of an animal I would buy it if not please make one
The next video in the series (rigging a fox) will include a face rig. You can already watch it with the paid course, link in the description :)
Or wait a week or two until I release it on RUclips.
autorig pro is the best addon even for 3D games liek unity or unreal
What's the right way to duplicate my character rigged with ARP to another file? If I just ctrl c and ctrl v, bone shapes will be messy
You want to either append or link the character. Ctrl c, Ctrl v is basically the same as appending.
There is info about this ARP manual. I can send you the link later if you can't find it.
What if I wanted to add extra bones to the horses ropes for example?
I discussed that briefly in the video. :)

Can I rig a cow model using auto-Rig pro?
Sure. The process would be almost the same as with the horse 🐎

how to copy or apply drivers to multiple objects at once ?
