if you want wings to stay purely modeller, I'd like to know which program is a good companion to do just rigging

Hi @curiousjunior, I can't affirm that, but I believe Wings3D is going 'to stay purely a modeller'.
There was in the past an user initiative to build a bones plugin, but unfortunately was not finished.

that plugin is not even downloadable, so it needs to be started from scratch

@dgud Can you provide what a general design for this could look like?

I help coordinate Godot Engine's 3d import / export and animation teams, so I know one particular way of doing this.

Before rigging we need to have bones, if we have bones I want IK, but my math is not great enough for that :-/
Would be cool but nothing I have worked on.

I'm a bit busy today, so let me know how to write it up.

This is the IK solver I'm using https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_o34kOx_FA&feature=youtu.be.

@dgud I have already that manipulator (gizmo) working as a plugin (still to finish some commands), but maybe you would consider to evaluate it an see if we could adapt it to work in the main code.
