CarRig Pro — Blender Car Rigging Add-on

CarRig Pro is a Blender add-on designed to make car rigging fast, intuitive, and accessible — no complex setups, no wasted time.

Why I Built It

The popular Rig a Car add-on has been a go-to tool for many Blender artists, but it broke with the release of Blender 5.0 and left users without a working solution. I built CarRig Pro from the ground up to fill that gap — taking the core idea and rethinking it to be simpler, more reliable, and fully compatible with the latest versions of Blender.

What Makes It Better

• Blender 5.0 Compatible — Unlike the original Rig a Car add-on, CarRig Pro works out of the box with Blender 5.0 and beyond.
• Easier to Use — The workflow has been streamlined so you spend less time figuring out the tool and more time animating.
• Built from Scratch — CarRig Pro isn't a patch or a fork. It was rewritten entirely, which means cleaner code and fewer unexpected errors.
• Designed for All Skill Levels — Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned 3D artist, the add-on guides you through rigging without the headache.

Who It's For

Anyone working on car animations in Blender — from indie game developers and motion graphic artists to hobbyists who just want their wheels to spin correctly.

--Version (0.1.0)

1. Fixed code for adding constraints for MCH_Wheel bones (It was failing to add constrains on MCH-Wheel.Bk.R bone)
2. Improved function for adding constraints to MCH_Wheel bones itself.
3. Fixed the code to not fail if WheelBrake objects are not available. It just skips them now if not available.
4. Takes objects from only selected ones not all or full viewport.
5. Shows proper warnings if rigging fails.
6. It is now able to rig the car if a rig of same types exists. (Previously it was not able to rig if “CarRig” already existed but now it adapts and use the name CarRig.001 or CarRig.002 etx)
