Python Maya Tools - IK|FK Auto Switch

𝗕𝗖𝗜𝗧 - 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗺𝗮 (𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰)

I scripted an IK-FK Switch Tool using Python for Autodesk Maya to streamline the rigging process for animators and riggers. The tool facilitates smooth transitions between IK (Inverse Kinematics) and FK (Forward Kinematics) setups. The tool automates the creation of IK and FK chains, applies constraints, and generates control systems.

You can find the tool for free in my Gumroad: https://huesito3d.gumroad.com/l/gomeqc?layout=profile
