Mustard Tools

This is an addon with some tools for riggers and animators. It's still in early developement, so expect more features in the future.

Features of the addon

• IK constraint generation for bone chains (with possible automatic creation of controller and pole bones)
• IK Spline rig generation for bone chains
• possibility to add bendy bones for both functions above
• full and only compatibility with Blender 2.83

Instructions

• This is an early version! Be sure to make a backup of your work before using this addon on your work!
• Install the addon as any other Blender addon (if you don't know how to do it, google it!)
• Press N in Viewport, and find the "Mustard Tools" tab
• You can find a very brief video tutorial here:

Troubleshooting

• When I use the IK Spline, the controllers are generated far from the actual curve.
  When this happens, also a warning message should appear, remembering you to Apply the location to your armature. To do so, go in Object moe, select the Armature and press Ctrl+A. Then choose Location (even if, in general, applying the full LocRotSca is a good practice).

• When I clean up the spline IK, sometime an error message appears.
  I am aware of this problem, and it will be fixed.
