HY-Motion 1.0 is an open-source, large-scale AI model suite developed by Tencent’s Hunyuan team that generates high-quality 3D human motion from simple text prompts, enabling the automatic production of fluid, diverse, and semantically accurate animations without manual keyframing or rigging. Built on advanced deep learning architectures that combine Diffusion Transformer (DiT) and flow matching techniques, HY-Motion scales these approaches to the billion-parameter level, resulting in strong instruction-following capabilities and richer motion outputs compared to existing open-source models. The training strategy for the HY-Motion series includes extensive pre-training on thousands of hours of varied motion data, fine-tuning on curated high-quality datasets, and reinforcement learning with human feedback, which improves both the plausibility and adaptability of generated motion sequences.

...You sketch a silhouette and interior strokes to hint at limbs or structure, then “inflate” the drawing into a volumetric, puppet-like mesh that preserves the feel of the original art. The interface favors immediacy: draw, inflate, pose, and record motion directly in the canvas, without manual rigging, weight painting, or complicated asset pipelines. Under the hood it builds a lightweight surface and auto-assigns handles so you can grab and move parts intuitively, with smooth deformations propagating across the body. Because it runs interactively, artists iterate rapidly—blocking poses, trying alternate proportions, or recording short performances—before exporting results downstream. ...

Blender is a free and open-source 3D creation suite used by artists, designers, and developers around the world to create everything from animations to visual effects. It supports the entire 3D pipeline, including modeling, sculpting, animation, rendering, compositing, and video editing. Blender 5.0 introduces major workflow and performance improvements, with enhanced Geometry Nodes and better volumetric data support. Its powerful Cycles render engine delivers high-quality, photorealistic...

...I have reached out and obtained permission to port their assets, including other mod authors of Stainless Steel and Ognem e Mecem mods. The only credit I claim is adapting these models into ETW format and re-rigging to the ETW skeleton and overall making these models work in ETW.

...) * Steering - avoiding obstacles and moving objects * Object manipulation - reach, grasp, touch , pick up objects * Lip Syncing - characters can speak with simultaneous lip-sync using text-to-speech or prerecorded audio * Gazing - robust gazing behavior that incorporates various parts of the body * Nonverbal behavior - gesturing, head nodding and shaking, eye saccades - Online and offline retargeting of motion - Automatic skinning and rigging SmartBody is written in C++ and can be incorporated into most game engines. SmartBody is developed at the USC Institute for Creative Technologies from the Character Animation and Simulation group: http://cas.ict.usc.edu

DragonBones DesignPanel is the visual editor component of the DragonBones skeletal animation system. Developed as a Flash application, it enables artists to rig 2D characters, set up bones, mesh deform, and build complex animations. It exports animation data in JSON format for use with various runtimes. DesignPanel played a major role in democratizing bone-based 2D animation in Flash game development.

Purple Owl is a free and open source cross-platform frame-by-frame cut-out animation software. Part of Purple Animation Tools by O. Bahri Gordebak (purplehuman). See Wiki for details. Note that Sourceforge project page doesn't always show the latest download. Please click Files above and browse files before download. Latest version is 1.2.1 right now.

The MetaRigging Toolkit is the course material for the Bungie Autodesk MasterClass: Process Automation for Massive Games. It includes an example demonstration set of rigging tools for Autodesk Maya written in MEL Script.

The Houdini Character Development Kit is a set of tools (scripts / HDA's) that help and make easier the task of rigging characters.

This mel script is a tool for creating a parent group node of selected objects. Created group will have offset values which objects have originally and their offset values will be initialized. It will be useful for rigging.

Endo is a simple, powerful 3D modeling program. It is good for making low-poly models for video games, and the like. Future version will provide texturing and rigging support.
