Distributed under the GPL license, Hook Curve reduces curve hooking and rigging to single-click operations, with an updated Blender 4 version offered separately on the developer's page.

What is Hook Curve?

Hook Curve is a Blender add-on from Animation Store for hooking and rigging curves. With a single click it hooks any curve with an empty, and with a single click it rigs any curve with a bone. Instead of hooking curves at separate points, the process is handled in one action.

The add-on also includes a Hook Nurbspath feature. An updated version for Blender 4 with additional features is offered on the developer's page. Documentation is provided, and a demo video is available.

On Superhive it sits at popularity rank 3068. Released about three years ago, Hook Curve is distributed under the GPL license and lists compatibility across a range of Blender 3.x versions. For those working with curves in Blender, it condenses the hooking and rigging steps into single-click operations.

Frequently asked questions

What Blender versions does Hook Curve support?

Hook Curve lists compatibility with Blender 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6. An updated version for Blender 4 with many features is offered separately on the developer's page, so if you are on Blender 4 you should look there for that release. Check the developer's page to confirm which download matches your Blender version before installing, since the versions covered here focus on the 3.x series.

Is Hook Curve free to use?

Hook Curve is listed as free in this catalog. It is distributed under the GPL license. For current licensing terms and any updated editions, including the Blender 4 version with additional features, refer to the developer's page. Because licensing and availability can change over time, checking the developer's page directly is the most reliable way to confirm the terms that apply to your download before you install the add-on.

Does Hook Curve include the Hook Nurbspath feature?

Hook Curve includes Hook Nurbspath as a feature. Alongside the core functions of hooking any curve with an empty and rigging any curve with a bone in a single click, Hook Nurbspath extends the add-on's coverage. Documentation is provided with Hook Curve, and a demo video is available if you want to see it referenced before use. For details on this feature and any updated releases, refer to the developer's page directly.
