Blender addon to add spring/bouncy dynamic effect to bones

Spring Bones

Blender addon to add spring/bouncy dynamic effect to bones.

alt text

Warning, it's currently in a very early state, alpha-proof of concept. The effect applies to the bone position and rotation in option. It's not production ready, it's mainly a toy to play with. User support is not granted for it considering this early state, it may be buggy but still fun to play with :)

Installation

  • Download and install the spring_bones.py file in Blender 2.8
  • In Pose Mode, go to the "Spring Bones" panel in the Bone tools section on the right.

  • Click "Enable Bone" to enable spring on a bone (must be a child bone)
  • You can adjust the "Bouncy", "Speed" and other parameters parameters such as collision
  • Click "Start" to enable the effect interactively, or "Start - Animation Mode" to enable it on frame change only (support baking)
  • When moving the parent bone, the child will move dynamically with bouncy motion
  • To bake, use the Blender baking tool: press F3 > type "bake" > NLA Bake
