Animax Rotator - Hard Surface Animation Made Easy
Supports Blender 4.5+
Why Rig When You Can Just Rotate?
Stop wasting hours adding bones and painting weights for simple mechanical parts.
Animax Rotator is designed for one thing: Speed. It allows you to animate hard-surface models directly in the viewport without a single bone.
- Instant Axis: Select an edge, and it becomes your hinge. No 3D cursor fiddling.
- Zero Rigging: Everything happens on the mesh level. Perfect for hatches, gears, and robot arms.
- Dependency Chain: Create parent-child relationships effortlessly for complex mechanisms.
- Beautiful UI: Interactive GPU gizmos make visualizing rotation angles intuitive and fun.
