Speedlines FX earns its place in the superhive library by building anime speedlines entirely inside Blender through Geometry Nodes, with two modes, focal-point tracking, and bakeable keyframes rather than external software or greenscreens.
Speedlines FX is a dedicated Blender addon from Flidoh Animations that generates anime and manga-style speedlines directly inside your 3D scene. Everything runs on Geometry Nodes, so there's no compositing, no greenscreens, and no external software involved, and every parameter animates cleanly on the Timeline.
The addon offers two modes. Radial speedlines radiate outward from a focal point at the centre of the screen for impact frames, power moments, and reaction shots, while Linear speedlines sweep horizontal strips across the camera frame for chase scenes, racing shots, or background atmosphere. Both modes expose full control over strip count, thickness, gradients, grouping, and more.
A smart focal-point tracking system converges radial lines on an animatable Focus Point that can lock to any object through an eyedropper workflow, and Release Tracking bakes that motion to location keyframes. Color, glow, gradient, and fade drive into the shader via drivers, and 10 built-in emotion presets plus a custom color ramp editor let you keyframe the mood of a shot.
Speedlines Fx is best for anime and manga-style action shots, character moments, and cinematic sequences, including impact frames, reaction shots, chase scenes, and racing shots.
Speedlines Fx is completely free to download and use.
Speedlines FX is built for Blender 4.2 through 5.x and ships in the Extension Format, with the current release listed as v2.0. If your Blender version falls in that range, the addon installs as a Blender extension and runs inside your existing 3D scene without compositing steps or external software. For versions outside that window, check the developer's page before installing to confirm support. Documentation is included to guide setup once the addon is in place.
Speedlines FX drives its radial speedlines toward a Focus Point, a camera-space empty you can animate manually or lock to any object through a simple eyedropper workflow. The addon stores a per-frame target map, so the focus switches from one character to another as your shot cuts or pans, and it is built to handle even complex rigs. When the live tracking looks right, Release Tracking bakes the motion to explicit location keyframes at a bake step you choose, and already-baked frames are never overwritten.
Speedlines FX ships with 10 built-in emotion presets, and its color, glow, gradient, and fade all drive into the shader through drivers, so you can keyframe the mood of a shot alongside the camera move. Selecting the Custom preset opens a full color ramp node editor directly inside the N-panel, where you add stops, adjust their positions and colours, and build gradients that go beyond a single tone. Every speedline property is animatable.
Speedlines FX is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing terms can change over time, so check the developer's page on superhive for the current details before you rely on it for a project. The addon generates its speedlines entirely inside Blender using Geometry Nodes, so no external software is required, and it runs on Blender 4.2 through 5.x in the Extension Format. Documentation is included to help you get started once installed.
