Been a while... but this is the fruits of my labour. I have been building an auto-rigging tool for a full character. After using my cartoony arms and legs, I realized that they are not conducive for a normal bi-ped. Just too many joints to have to paint weights for in the arms and legs. Also, they are so complicated that they could really only be posed completely straight when setting up the rig.
That being said, I have created my first full character auto rig. IK/FK switch, squash and stretch and orientation controls in the arms and legs, layered ik under fk for the spine, fully scaleable rig, with a few other bells and whistles.
It is available for purchase here! It makes the perfect gift for that special animator!
You can see a quick demo of just how the rig works here!
