If you need to rig a ball for animation, this addon is your 1-click solution.

It's really this simple:

1. Select your Ball model (or models if the ball consists of multiple meshes)

2. Click the Generate Ball Rig button (a rig with the exact size of your ball model will be created)

3. Parent the model(s) to the rig

4. Animate! :)

Adjustable Squash & Stretch

A unique feature of this ball rig generator is the Adjustable Squash & Stretch control (see GIF above).

By default, the two stretch controls are positioned at the top and bottom of the ball which is ideal for 2D bouncing ball animations and other simple scenarios. However, with Adjustable Squash & Stretch you can tweak the "direction" of the stretch if you need to. This makes animating bouncing balls in 3D space much easier.

Other Features

The addon also creates all the standard controls you'd expect from a good ball rig.

• Root control

• Center of gravity control

• Rotation control

• Top / Bottom Squash & Stretch control
