What AccuRIG is
AccuRIG is a guided auto-rigging tool that prepares 3D meshes to serve as animated cartoon characters and digital human avatars. It handles varied scan poses and models with differing sizes, styles, and postures, including realistic anatomy, exaggerated proportions, atypical limbs, obstructed shoulders, and fantasy creatures with hind legs. AccuRIG assigns skin weights for joint articulation and addresses areas such as hair, knees, elbows, hands, accessories, and clothes. It can separate close-set fingers and rig varied finger types. Joint masking lets users remove joints to create partial rigs for models with incomplete limbs or non-standard poses. Finished characters can be saved in FBX and USD formats, with listed export destinations including Unreal Engine, Unity, Blender, iClone, Omniverse, Maya, 3ds Max, MotionBuilder, and Cinema 4D. AccuRIG is standalone Windows software, with 64-bit support listed for Windows 11, 10, and 8. The free ActorCore version supports one mesh in an A/T pose. It can import multi-mesh characters, but cannot rig them separately; advanced features are available in Character Creator 4.1.
