The main features provided include:

  • Inverse Kinematics w/ switching and snapping
  • Modern rig controls
  • Animation exporting to Project Zomboid
  • Fully custom rig UI
  • Direct importing of Project Zomboid assets
  • Direct importing of modded assets
  • Body texture systems

  • ...and more!

This rig has two main purposes:
