Retarget Helper is a collection of scripts designed to streamline specific animation retargeting tasks in Blender. Built around workflows developed by CGDive, it automates several repetitive processes encountered when transferring motion data between character rigs.
The toollet includes a feature to extract selected bones to an intermediate FK rig with automatic constraints, simplifying the process of retargeting animations to complex armatures. It can also generate mock pole targets for elbows and knees to assist with IK-only target limbs. Additionally, the add-on provides dedicated cleanup scripts for skeleton data downloaded from Mixamo, ActorCore, and Reallusion's Character Creator, ensuring compatibility with standard Blender utility add-ons.
