Start with parenting the character mesh to the armature: First select the character, then select the armature, then press ctrl + p and choose one of the three autoskinning options under Armature Deform: with Empty groups, with Envelope weights or with Automatic weights.

This can be a bit tedious if you have a high-poly, complex character (pro-tip: unless you are part of a AAA game studio, go low poly!), but luckily the character in this example is super easy to skin! Now that the bones are correctly placed and named, we can start skinning. This is not strictly necessary, but the Meta-rig name the hip-, neck- and head-bones are all called “Spine”, which is not ideal: When the bones are positioned correctly, it can be worth your while to run through the bone chains and check the names.

Also make sure to zero out any bone “Roll” in the arm bones: A tip before you begin is to apply X-Axis mirror in Options. Make sure to have a little bend on the arms and legs, as this will make it easier to extend the rig later or make a ragdoll in Unity (I mean, why wouldn’t you! Ragdolls are awesome!). A good tip here is to use orthographic camera ( num 5) and switch between front view ( num 1), right/left view ( num 3 / ctrl + num 3 ) and top view ( num 7) as needed. With unnecessary bones out of the way, we can start positioning the bones to fit our character. For this example we will remove all the face and finger bones, as well as the breast.

However basic it may be, this rig is way more complex than we need. This places basic human skeleton in the scene, with pre-named bones positioned roughly where we want it (press Z to toggle wireframe view): Now go to Add -> Armature -> Human (Meta-rig).

It is good practice in Blender to keep the pivot point centered, so press Shift+S, then Cursor to Center (new objects in Blender get the pivot point from the cursor position): To enable this add-on, go to File -> User Preferences -> Add-ons -> Rigging (or search for rigify) then apply the check-box and press Save User Settings: A good way to save some time on humanoid characters in Blender is to use the Meta-rig that comes with the Rigify add-on. A good practice when modelling humanoid characters is to make sure the character is modelled in a T-Pose, i.e. Rigging in Blenderįirst off, we will set up a simple rigged character in Blender. If you already have a rigged character or want to use one from Mixamo you can skip the first part about Rigging in Blender and Exporting from Blender and go directly to Importing Character to Unity. This blogpost will hopefully provide some insight into how you can easily rig a character in Blender, import it to Unity and add Humanoid animations from Mixamo to use with the Mecanim system.
