is there a rigging app for use in Blender? I now have 3.4 I want to rig a figure imported as an obj file

Hello goofygrape Blender has rigging available natively but I think the add-on is not turned on by default you would have to turn on the add-on called Rigify you would turn it on from your preferences and add-ons. There are numerous tutorials on Youtube on how to use the add-on but since they made many new improvements to the add-on I would highly suggest that unless the tutorials is for Blender 2.9 or newer the older ones would not be useful to you at all.

Thank you Lobo3433

I found Rigify in 3.1 now on to YouTube.

The only problem with Youtube is I've been banned for life

Ah OK not sure I can help on that end Udemy runs some courses on sale often that deal with Rigging also supposedly Reallusion has a free Auto Rigging app that is free called ActorCore AccuRIG that seems to work well in conjunction with Blender but using Blender's native tools should get you started.

Good Luck :thumbsup:

Okay, I gotta ask. What did you do to get banned for life on YouTube, threaten someone's life?

Some crazy thoughts here, but . . .

Log out of youtube/google? Delete any cookies you have on your system from google/youtube, and DON'T try to log-in again? Use "private" mode in your browser? Use a different browser? Use a different device? Reboot your router if you have a dynamic IP? VPN?

Short of your ISP blocking you [for I can't even imagine what?!], I don't think there's any way for google/youtube [as pervasive and far reaching as their tracking is] to actually prevent you from watching videos if you visit anonymously [at least videos that aren't age restricted, which I doubt tutorials would be].

Yeah, all you would need is a VPN. If you wanted to log in, obviously, then a new gmail account would be in order too.
