YA FlexParent Toolkit: Full Control Over Dynamic Parenting in Blender
💬 X | Discord
Have you ever tried to animate a scene where an object is passed from one character's hand to another? Or where a product needs to follow a conveyor belt and then drop into a box? In vanilla Blender, this requires a complex dance of constraints, influence keyframing, and manual counter-animation to avoid pops and jumps.
YA FlexParent Toolkit completely automates this workflow, turning it into a fast and enjoyable task.
This isn't just a parenting tool; it's a complete system for effortlessly creating complex animation interactions.
What You Get:
- Dynamic Parent Assignment: Select your child object(s), then the parent, click "Assign/Switch Parent" — you're done. The object now follows the new parent, starting from the current frame.
- Smooth Animated Transitions: Forget about jarring cuts! The addon automatically creates a seamless transition between the old and new states by animating the constraint's influence over a specified number of frames. You can customize the duration and interpolation type (Bezier, Linear, Constant).
- Powerful Collection Workflow: Need a whole pile of screws to attach to a robot's chassis? Just put them in a collection, select it in the addon, and assign a parent to every object in that collection at once.
-
Deep Armature Integration: Perfect for character animators! Specify a single bone as the parent (e.g.,
hand.R
), and your prop will follow it perfectly. The addon even auto-detects the active bone if you don't specify one. -
Flexible Constraint Types: Go beyond the standard
Child Of
constraint. The addon also supportsCopy Location
,Copy Rotation
, andTrack To
to create more specific and nuanced interactions. - Simple Finalizing: One-Click Bake: When your animation is complete, press a single button to "bake" the constraint-driven motion into standard keyframes. The addon will then automatically remove all of its helper constraints, leaving you with a clean, render-ready scene.
Perfect For:
- Character Animation: Picking up weapons, tools, passing objects.
- Mechanical Animation: Parts assembling and disassembling.
- Motion Graphics: Elements grouping together, moving as one, and then separating.
YA FlexParent Toolkit is a tool built by animators, for animators, to solve one of the most tedious problems in Blender.
