Mesh2Rig

Will help transfer and bake cloth simulation or something like that to rig. This can be useful when transferring animation into a game engine or other software.

1. Setup:

   • Prepare an object with mesh animation (e.g., cloth simulation) and a duplicate of it, matching its shape on the first frame but without animation.

2. Stage 1 - Rig Creation:

   • Select the non-animated object.
   • Generate a rig on it.
   • (Optional) In Edit Mode, remove excess bones or add new ones as needed.
   • (I use a bone length of 0.003 m)

3. Stage 2 - Rig Binding:

   • Select the created rig and the non-animated object.
   • Perform the second stage.

4. Stage 3 - Rig Finalization:

   • Select the rig.
   • Execute the third stage.

5. Stage 4 - Target Assignment:

   • Set the non-animated object as the source.
   • Set the animated object (e.g., with cloth simulation) as the target.

6. Stage 5 - Animation Transfer:

   • Define the first and last frames of the animation
   • Apply the fifth stage.

7. Stage 6 - Final Setup:

   • Select the original non-animated object and the rig.
   • Complete the process.

This is a test extension that should help transfer the animation of the grid to the rig. I made it in 6 hours without any programming knowledge using coding Ai, so do not judge strictly.
