Cut your animation time in half. Built by animators, for animators.

Stop jumping between scattered scripts, shelves, and repetitive Maya commands. AnimKit brings everyday animation tools into one clean, dockable workflow — combining fast blocking, pose management, timing tools, mirror/flip, retargeting, temp controls, constraints, cleanup, and more.

WHAT YOU GET

AnimKit v3.1 Pro is a production-ready Autodesk Maya animation toolkit with 12 specialized tabs and a docked toolbar of 50+ one-click tools.

It includes 15 animation workflow tools, each built for real production use and supported by quick video demos so you can see exactly how it works before you buy.

POSE LIBRARY

Studio-Library-style pose and animation library with thumbnails, folders, namespace-aware matching, subset apply, mirror-on-apply, and clean keying.

Save selected controls as visual pose cards, organize them into libraries, and apply them later to the original rig or selected controls.

SYNC — TIMING TOOLS

Retiming tools for fast animation editing.

Includes:

• Time Offset — move all keys or keys after the current frame

• Time Scale — scale the full timeline or selected range

• Reverse Animation — snapshot-safe reverse workflow

• Advanced Timeline tools — range from selected keys, highlighted range, handles

MIRROR / FLIP — STUDIO LIBRARY STYLE

Smart per-control mirror and flip tools designed for real Maya rigs.

Features:

• Supports L/R, Lt/Rt, Left/Right naming

• Prefix, suffix, embedded, dot-style, and namespaced rig support

• IK default-aware math

• FK joint-orient detection

• Time range support for animation keys

• Current-frame support for pose mirroring

If a time range is highlighted, AnimKit mirrors or flips keys inside that range. If no range is selected, it works on the current pose.

CONSTRAINTS + ATTACH / DETACH

Create parent, point, orient, scale, and aim constraints with maintain offset.

Also includes a dedicated Attach / Detach workflow for prop animation, powered by Maya blendParent behavior to avoid damaging the animation before the attach frame.

Useful for:

• Cups

• Swords

• Props

• Hand-object interactions

• Pickup and release animation

TEMP PIVOT — SPACE

AnimBot-style 3-state temporary pivot workflow:

Place → Drive → Off

Rotate or move any object around any custom pivot point without permanently changing the rig.

Includes:

• World Pin for IK feet and hands

• Center Root to Target

• Custom Temp Controls

COPY / PASTE RELATIONSHIP — NEW IN v3.1

Copy the transform relationship between two controls or objects, then paste it later at another frame or across a range.

No constraints.

No helper nodes.

No messy scene setup.

Use it to:

• Move props between hands

• Maintain spatial relationships

• Paste object relationships over a timeline range

• Rebuild hand-off animation faster

Designed to be selection-safe, so it does not wipe carefully edited animation keys.

Watch the demo:

SCALE-FROM TOOLS

Scale animation values around different pivot modes.

Modes include:

• Average — exaggerate around the curve average

• Default — scale from zero/default

• Frame — scale around current frame

• Neighbor Left

• Neighbor Right

Useful for pushing poses, exaggerating curves, and adjusting animation intensity.

AnimKit v3.1.2 — Maya 2025/2026 compatibility + UI Scale

What's new in this release:

• Maya 2025 / 2026 PySide6 compatibility fix

  AnimKit now imports PySide6 first and falls back to PySide2

  automatically on older Maya versions, so the plugin loads

  cleanly on Maya 2020 – 2026 without any manual change.

• New UI Scale picker in Settings → Display

  Six steps: 100%, 125%, 150%, 175%, 200%, 250%.

  Saved in animkit_settings.json (other prefs are preserved

  on write). Improved high-DPI scaling — perfect 4K / 8K

  layout is not guaranteed for every panel; report visual

  issues to support.

• Self-service ArtStation activation is live

  https://www.nasrtech.dev/animkit/redeem

  No more waiting for a manual code — enter your ArtStation

  Order ID + Username and the .lic file is emailed within a

  minute. The in-app "Renew" button now opens this page

  directly.

• Translation polish

  Completed Arabic and French translations for the Pose tab

  strings that previously fell back to English.

Compatibility:

  Maya 2020, 2022, 2023, 2024 (PySide2)

  Maya 2025, 2026                (PySide6)

If you already activated AnimKit on v3.1 or v3.1.1, no

re-activation is needed — drop the new animkit/ folder into

your Maya scripts/ directory and restart Maya. Your existing

animkit_license.lic continues to work.
