Kevin Rig Documentation

Why should I buy?

A professional fully rigged character at your finger tips! Designed to provide an intuitive workflow with IK/FK snap, auto-stretch and dynamic, this rig should meet all your needs. With a smart edge flow,  the models are 99% quads. Experience a quick and easy way to select the body parts: thanks to the proxy picker, you'll be glad not to click 10 times on the wrong controller because there are too many of them overlapping at the same place.

Looking for a female model? Check the Anna rig.

A part of each sale is donated to the Blender Foundation, helping Blender growing every day. I'd recommend ro read the whole documentation for an in-depth how-to-use. It has been tested several times, however if you encounter any bugs please report it.

Enjoy!

Walk cycle animation test (included) 

Please note it does not include an auto-rig system. If you need one, you may be interested in Auto-rig Pro.

FAQ

-The model is totally blown up when opening the file!

When opening the file, make sure "Trusted source" is checked. Otherwise the rig scripts and drivers dependencies won't run, and will make the whole thing unusable (exploded mesh, very slow...). Go to  User Preferences (Ctrl-Alt- U) -> File -> Auto Run Pythons Scripts to set it enabled by default.

-I can't turn on surface subdivision?

Uncheck or tweak the simplify parameter. This parameter overrides the subsurf level of every object in the scene.
