Why we like it

Animation Generator earns its spot in the superhive library for bundling a library of ready-made object animations with offset and mirror controls. Version 3.0.0 adds scale animation and a Back Position option, and support spanning Blender 3.0 to 4.2 under a GPL license keeps it usable across a range of releases.

What is Animation Generator?

Animation Generator is a Blender addon from kattour that applies a set of ready-made animations to objects in your scene. It comes in two tiers: a Basic version with 28 animations and a Pro version with 126, both sharing offset controls, edit position and fix updates.

The addon covers several motion behaviours, including scale animation and a Back Position option added in version 3.0.0. A mirror feature reverses motion, and offset buttons handle backward movement. Pro purchasers also receive the separate Mirror & Offset addon at no extra cost. An earlier update resolved an issue with multi-object selection.

One limitation to keep in mind is that you cannot select Animation Out or Both. To see what the animations look like, the add-on includes a button that opens them for viewing online. Animation Generator works across Blender 3.0 through 4.2 and is released under the GPL license.

Who is Animation Generator best for?

Animation Generator is best for blender users who want to apply ready-made animations to objects in a scene, with offset, edit position and mirror controls for adjusting motion.

Frequently asked questions

Which Blender versions does Animation Generator support?

Animation Generator is listed for a wide range of Blender releases: versions 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2. That range covers both older 3.x builds and the more recent 4.x series, so you have flexibility across projects tied to different Blender versions. The addon is released under the GPL license. For the current version and any compatibility notes, check the developer's page before installing.

What is the difference between the Basic and Pro versions of Animation Generator?

Animation Generator comes in two versions with different animation counts. The Basic version includes 28 animations along with offset, edit position and fix updates. The Pro version steps up to 126 animations and adds the separate Mirror & Offset addon, which is included free for Pro purchasers, on top of offset, edit position and fix updates. Both tiers share the core offset and edit position controls, with the larger animation library and bundled addon being the main additions in the Pro version.

Can Animation Generator play animations in reverse or backward?

Animation Generator includes a mirror feature for reversing motion and offset buttons for backward movement, so you can work with animations that run in the opposite direction. One limitation to note is that you cannot select Animation Out or Both. Version 3.0.0 also added a scale animation and a Back Position option. To preview the available animations, the addon includes a button that opens them for viewing online.

Is Animation Generator free to use?

Animation Generator is listed as free in this catalog. The developer offers it in two tiers, a Basic version and a Pro version, so the terms you get can depend on which one you choose. The addon itself is published under the GPL license. Licensing and availability can change over time, so check the developer's page for the current details before you download it.
