What is Lucky Rig?
Lucky Rig is a free Python tool for Maya that automatically sets up any custom character with a MetaHuman rig. No more hours of manual bone placement and weight painting — Lucky Rig saves you time and lets you focus on creativity.
Key Features in Version 2.1:
• Smarter bone distribution
• More accurate head and teeth alignment
• Unique feature: refine facial expressions through sculpting → Lucky Rig automatically adapts bones and morph targets
• Many under-the-hood improvements for smoother and faster workflow
Who is it for?
3D character artists, riggers, animators, and anyone working with MetaHuman characters in Maya.
Why free?
I built Lucky Rig to solve my own production bottlenecks and decided to share it with the community. It’s free to use, but feedback is very welcome.
