Earns its place in the superhive library for tackling one narrow but real issue: the jitter that shows up when a 1s camera meets a character animated on a slower step.
NPR Framerate Mixer targets a specific problem in stylized animation: mixing an object or character animated on 2s, 3s or any framerate with a camera animated on 1s. Combine a 1s camera with a 2s character directly and the result is jittery, since the two do not mix well on their own.
The addon works by creating an empty that bakes in the camera offset for the hold frames. Once you bake the empty, you parent your character object or rig to it, keeping the stepped animation while the camera stays on 1s.
It runs on Blender across a wide range of versions, from 2.8 through 4.3, and is released under the GPL license. Documentation is included, and a demo video is available. The addon carries a single five-star rating and has sold 100 or more copies.
Npr Framerate Mixer is best for blender artists working on stylized or NPR animation who need a stepped character to sit cleanly against a camera animated on 1s.
Npr Framerate Mixer is completely free to download and use.
NPR Framerate Mixer lists compatibility with Blender 4.3, along with 4.2, 4.1, 4.0 and the 3.x series down to 3.0. It also covers the 2.9x releases and reaches back to Blender 2.8, so it spans a wide range of versions. If you run a recent build, support is stated for the current 4.x line. For versions outside this list, or to confirm behaviour on your exact build, check the developer's page before installing.
NPR Framerate Mixer addresses the jitter that appears when a camera animated on 1s is combined with a character animated on 2s, since the two framerates do not mix well on their own. The addon creates an empty that bakes in the camera offset for the hold frames. The workflow is short: bake the empty, then parent your character object or rig to it. The character keeps its stepped framerate, whether 2s, 3s or any other, while the camera stays on 1s. Documentation is included, and a demo video is available.
NPR Framerate Mixer is listed as free in this catalog. Pricing and licensing terms can change over time, so for the current details it is best to check the developer's page directly before you download. The addon is released under the GPL license, which governs how it can be used and redistributed. If you need information on the latest version or on support, the developer's page and the included documentation are the places to look.
