AutoRig FAQ

Question 1

What can I upload?

Accepted Answer

One upload zone on the home page takes a 3D model (GLB, FBX, OBJ or a ZIP with textures), a picture, a picture of a car, or a text description. Every task gets its own page: one task, one viewer, with the agent chat.

Question 2

How fast is the rig?

Accepted Answer

The fast rig builds the skeleton and skin from the geometry in seconds, and the animation clips are retargeted at once. The target is a rigged, animated model within one minute from pickup. The quality checks run in the background of the viewer.

Question 3

Do I have to confirm the skeleton?

Accepted Answer

No. The viewer offers to confirm the skeleton in the blueprint, but nothing waits for it: the animation is made at once. Confirm or edit the bones only if you want to.

Question 4

What happens after I upload a model?

Accepted Answer

Every task opens in its own Unity WebGL viewer. It starts on a black scene at once and plays the stages (voxels, erosion, bones, rig) while the mesh loads, then loads the chosen environment scene. When the rig is ready, the animations play from the bar at the bottom, and the AI agent chat sits in the corner.

Question 5

How do I move the camera?

Accepted Answer

The right mouse button pans and the middle button orbits; left-drag also orbits, and Shift + left pans. The wheel changes the lens, Ctrl + wheel moves closer. F frames the model, F11 goes full screen, F12 saves a screenshot and F1 lists every key. On a phone, drag with one finger and pinch with two.

Question 6

Are there camera presets and hotkeys?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Camera presets frame the face, elbows, hands, knees, feet and heels, so you can check the joints up close. Every control shows its hotkey as a badge, and F1 lists all keys.

Question 7

What are the icons around the viewer?

Accepted Answer

Left: model, rig, bones, blueprint, voxels, framing, auto camera and the outliner. Right: the look of the scene. A click switches an icon to its next preset, the last step turns it off, and holding the icon opens its detailed settings. Bottom left: the channels, keys 1–0. A right click opens a menu with this FAQ.

Question 8

Which environment scenes are there?

Accepted Answer

The viewer loads only the scene it needs, after the rig presentation: for example a cathedral, Sponza, a river glade or jungle ruins. Scenes come with baked lighting, reflection and light probes, and colliders.

Question 9

What can the AI agent do?

Accepted Answer

The agent lives in your task's viewer. It looks at the model, decides what to do next and uses tools: it checks joints, feet and skinning, repairs frames, adds animations, changes materials, light and scene, and renders images and videos of the result.

Question 10

How do I talk to the agent?

Accepted Answer

Type in the chat under the video window in the bottom-right corner, in any language. Ask in plain words: “check the feet”, “make her wave”, “make the eyes glow”. Quick-reply chips suggest next steps, and renders and videos appear right in the chat.

Question 11

Does the agent see what I see?

Accepted Answer

It knows which layer and clip are on screen and whether the bones are shown, and it can drive the viewer for you: play a clip, show a layer, move the camera, change materials, weather and time of day.

Question 12

Will the agent change my original file?

Accepted Answer

No. Your upload stays as it is. Edits are saved as new versions on top of it, and material changes can be undone.

Question 13

Is the agent shared with other visitors?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each task has one agent chat shared by everyone who opens it, not a separate session per visitor. The agent speaks the language of the person who created the task.

Question 14

Which kinds of models are rigged?

Accepted Answer

Biped (humanoid), quadruped, equine, bird, serpent, monster, multilimb, hands, primate and vehicle. Each category has its own skeleton template, fit and skin rules, clip library and quality checks.

Question 15

How is the category chosen?

Accepted Answer

AutoRig picks it automatically from the shape of the model and what a vision check sees, so you do not choose it. If a model lands in the wrong category, report it with the defect button in the Telegram notice.

Question 16

How are horses and other four-legged animals rigged?

Accepted Answer

Quadrupeds (dogs, cats, bears, cows, pigs) get a quadruped skeleton. Equines (horses, deer, zebras) get a richer one with scapula, elbow, mid-neck and leg profile joints, and planted-hoof gaits: walk, trot and gallop.

Question 17

How are birds and wings rigged?

Accepted Answer

Wings are rigged as wings, never as arms. A bird gets its own skeleton and its own clip library.

Question 18

Can I rig a single hand, gloves or FPS arms?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The hands category rigs a single hand, gloves or first-person arms with per-finger joints and has hand clips of its own.

Question 19

What if the model is not in a T-pose?

Accepted Answer

Any pose works. When a biped stands on one leg or steps, the leg on the floor sets the bone lengths for the other, so both legs get the same lengths. If the file already has a skeleton or an animation, its own rest pose is used first.

Question 20

Can AutoRig rig a car from a picture?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Drop a picture of a car on the home page. The vehicle conveyor segments it into body, wheels, doors, hood, trunk, hatches, glass, lights and bumpers, models each part as its own 3D object and assembles a rigged car.

Question 21

How do I review the parts of a car?

Accepted Answer

Every part is isolated and restored as a whole object, and the viewer lists them in the Parts panel. For each part you accept it, redraw it or order it as a 3D model. The body is drawn as a bare shell without doors, hood and glass, so those parts open and move on their own.

Question 22

How are wheels, body and doors made correct?

Accepted Answer

Each wheel is normalised to a cylinder collider that matches its own shape. The body is corrected to left–right symmetry with a free-form deformation (FFD) lattice, and the doors are hinged.

Question 23

Is there an interior and a driver?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The cabin has a seat, a steering wheel, pedals and a gear stick, and a rigged driver is seated at them by IK.

Question 24

Are paid 3D services used for cars?

Accepted Answer

The free farm is the default. Paid 3D clouds (Tripo and Hunyuan cloud) run only when you press their explicit button.

Question 25

How does auto-rigging work?

Accepted Answer

The fast rig builds the skeleton and skin from the model's geometry in seconds, using the template of its category, and the animation clips are retargeted at once. Quality checks (joint placement, skin tears, limb collisions, numeric deformation QA) run in the background of the viewer. Humanoids get a standard humanoid skeleton that animation tools and game engines understand.

Question 26

How do I inspect the bones and the skinning?

Accepted Answer

Press F8 or the bones icon to see the skeleton over the model. Play a clip, press Space to stop on a frame and step with the arrow keys. Channel 0 colours the body parts, and the outliner (9) hides or isolates any part.

Question 27

A joint is in the wrong place. Can I fix it?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Press B for Blueprint mode and move the bones; symmetry mirrors your edit to the other side. The rig is rebuilt 15 seconds after your last edit, or at once with the re-rig button, and the correction goes into every animation. You can also ask the agent to check the feet, the knees or a single frame.

Question 28

How is the rig quality kept up?

Accepted Answer

Every model that once broke a rig becomes a regression test, and every engine release has to pass these autotests before it goes live. Rig quality comes before speed.

Question 29

Which models can be rigged?

Accepted Answer

People, stylised and anime characters, animals, birds, creatures, hands and cars. Upload GLB, FBX, OBJ or a ZIP with textures, or generate a model from a picture or text.

Question 30

Which animations do I get?

Accepted Answer

A rigged character comes with ready motions such as idle, walk, run, jump, wave, dance, punch and look around; every other category has its own clip library, for example walk, trot and gallop for a horse. They play from the bar at the bottom of the viewer, and the agent can add more on request.

Question 31

Where do the clips come from?

Accepted Answer

For each category, reference videos of the gaits and actions are generated and the motion is extracted once. The clips are then retargeted automatically onto every new rig, with a numeric QA check on each clip. Procedural clips are the fallback.

Question 32

What is retargeting?

Accepted Answer

Retargeting moves a motion made for one skeleton onto yours while keeping your character's proportions. Your joint corrections are carried into every retargeted clip.

Question 33

Can I fix one bad frame?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Press Space to stop the clip, find the frame on the slider and press the wrench: the frame is smoothed with its neighbours and flips in the clip are repaired.

Question 34

Can I add my own clips?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Custom clips can be added in the viewer to the task's clip set, and they are retargeted onto your rig like the built-in ones.

Question 35

Can I edit the model itself?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pick any object, material or body part in the outliner (9) or click it in the scene, then change its colour, metalness, smoothness and glow. The eye icon hides parts so you can look inside.

Question 36

Can the agent edit the model for me?

Accepted Answer

Describe the change and the agent makes it: recolour clothes, make eyes or armour glow, try other materials. Every material change can be undone.

Question 37

Can I change the scene around the model?

Accepted Answer

Yes: the post-processing look, depth of field, volumetric light, weather, time of day, stages such as a studio or a cathedral, and a radial pulse on Alt. Each is one click on the right toolbar.

Question 38

Can I make a 3D character from a picture?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload a picture: AutoRig builds a 3D model from it, rigs it and opens it in the viewer with animations. A picture of a car goes through the vehicle conveyor instead.

Question 39

Can I describe a character in words?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Write what you want to see; the character is generated from the description, then rigged and animated the same way.

Question 40

Can I start from a video?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Send a video and the agent uses it as a reference for the character and its movement.

Question 41

Can the agent make images and videos of my character?

Accepted Answer

Yes: renders, turntables and short videos of the character in a scene. They appear in the chat next to the viewer.

Question 42

How do I check textures and materials?

Accepted Answer

Use the keys 1–0 or the icons in the bottom-left corner: 1 full shading, 2 albedo, 3 normals, 4 metallic, 5 roughness, 6 emission, 7 object IDs, 8 material IDs, 9 the outliner, 0 body parts.

Question 43

What are object and material IDs?

Accepted Answer

Each separate object or material gets its own flat colour, so you see at once how the model is split and which parts share a material.

Question 44

Are my textures kept?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A model's own textures are never lost: materials, textures and UVs are kept through rigging, and the PBR maps (base colour, normal, metal-roughness and emission) show up in the channels.

Question 45

What if my model has no textures?

Accepted Answer

It gets PBR textures automatically (albedo, roughness, metallic, normal and emissive), made from the model's own projections. The textured model is what the vision checks and the previews use.

Question 46

Which formats can I download?

Accepted Answer

The rigged, animated model downloads as GLB and FBX. USDZ, a ZIP bundle, a Unity package and a Blender file are offered too, and static copies are available as OBJ.

Question 47

Does it work in Unity, Unreal and Blender?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The FBX imports as a humanoid in Unity and as a skeletal mesh in Unreal, and the GLB opens in Blender, three.js and other web viewers. A ready Unity package and a Blender file come from the same task.

Question 48

Can I use the result commercially?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you own the rights to the source model. AutoRig adds the skeleton, skinning and animations and claims no ownership of your model.

Question 49

Is there an API?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Tasks can be created, tracked and downloaded through the API; the developer page has the details.

Question 50

Which languages are supported?

Accepted Answer

The site is available in English, Russian, Chinese, Hindi and Persian (right to left). English pages have no prefix; the others live under /ru/, /zh/, /hi/ and /fa/.

Question 51

How do I report a bad rig?

Accepted Answer

The Telegram notice of a finished task has defect buttons, for example a wrong model transform, a torn mesh after skinning or elbows that are too wide, and you can reply with text too. A report is recorded and checked, and the fix goes into the engine for the whole category, not into one model.
