Why we like it

Earns its place in the superhive library for turning driver setup into an enter-and-generate step, followed by a copy-and-paste into the target property. The auto-replace tool is the part to handle carefully, since it can touch every driver on an object that has more than one.

What is Automatic Driver Generator Addon For Blender: Two Clicks Animation?

The Automatic Driver Generator Addon for Blender: Two Clicks Animation, from developer GabrielMoro, is built to make animating values like shape keys, lattices, and shaders simpler. It focuses on creating drivers: you enter the values you want and generate them.

Working with it follows a short path. Open the sidebar in Blender, input your values and the loop duration, and generate the driver. You then copy and paste that driver into the value field of the property you want to animate. The addon adds hashtags to driver expressions automatically, includes a degree mode for precise rotational animation, and can replace an existing driver with one click.

The tool covers several animation needs. You can move an object between two values for oscillating motion, gradually increase or decrease a value to move something along a path, or keep an object spinning at a set speed. One caution: the auto-replace feature may affect all drivers on a selected object that carries more than one.

Frequently asked questions

Does this addon work with Blender 4.0?

The Automatic Driver Generator Addon lists Blender 4.0 as its supported version, so that release is the reference point for compatibility. If you run a different Blender build, check the developer's page before installing, since versions outside the listed one aren't confirmed here. The addon works inside Blender's sidebar, where you input your values and generate the driver, then paste it into the property you want to animate. Confirming your Blender version first helps avoid surprises with the driver expressions it produces.

How do I create a driver with this addon?

The Automatic Driver Generator Addon works from the sidebar in Blender. You open the sidebar, input the values you want along with the loop duration, and generate the driver. From there you copy the generated driver and paste it into the value field of the property you wish to animate, such as a shape key, lattice, or shader value. The addon adds hashtags to the driver expression automatically and offers a degree mode when you need precise rotational animation.

What license does this addon use?

The Automatic Driver Generator Addon is listed under a Creative Commons license, published by developer GabrielMoro. For the exact terms of what that license permits, including any conditions on use or redistribution, the developer's page is the place to check the current details. Licensing terms can change over time, so it's worth confirming there before you build the addon into a project you plan to share with others. Reviewing the terms first keeps your usage aligned with the license.

Is this addon free?

The Automatic Driver Generator Addon is listed as free in this catalog. Because pricing and licensing can be updated by the creator, the developer's page is the best place to confirm the current terms before you download. It's published under a Creative Commons license by GabrielMoro, so review both the price and the license conditions there. That way you'll know exactly what's included and how you're allowed to use the addon in your own Blender animation work.

Is auto-replace safe on objects with multiple drivers?

The Automatic Driver Generator Addon includes a one-click auto-replace tool, and the developer flags a specific caution around it. If your selected object already has multiple drivers, using auto-replace may affect all of them, not just the one you intend to change. Because of that, it's worth checking how many drivers are attached to an object before you run the replacement. On objects with a single driver the concern doesn't apply, but multi-driver objects call for extra care with this feature.
