The Rig System
This component allows users to create a wide variety of advanced rigs with just a few parameters and a template of points. It can create an open system that consists of independent components such as bones, helpers, controllers, and solvers that can be modified, replaced or removed. There are different types of rigs available, such as biped, quadruped, centaur, insect, and more.

The rig’s limbs can have IKFK solvers, reverse foot parameters, an IK spine, twist bones and UI panels with picker controls. Additionally the user can create a face rig based on bones or morph targets.
