Description
This is a rig I've been working on lately. It's largely based on this rig by John David Marte: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=PZOu2477PWs The rig is far from perfect. Still I'm pretty happy with what I've achieved so far and decided to share it with you guys. Feedback is welcome here: [http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?257209-Book-Rig](http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?257209-Book-Rig)
Note: This rig is heavily dependent on drivers and for them to work you must enable Auto Run Python Scripts. To do this go to File>User Preferences and enable the tickbox in the File tab. Then you can reload the file and run the script in the text window. Please be aware that this is a security setting and should be disabled if you don't need it. Otherwise you run the risk of allowing malicious code to be run on your machine. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Amazing... I've been waiting for something exactly like this to come along! Great work!!
Great work !
What about textures? Is it possible to texture the flipping pages? If not it's probably not very useful for comercial work.
You can texture the individual pages. @masluch

Hey guys. Thanks for the encouraging comments. Just in case it isn't clear the video I posted is of the original Maya rig by John David Marte. I just realized some people might get confused thinking the video is a demo of my rig, which is a mere imitation and of a far inferior quality compared to the original.
Far from perfect? PWHAA
how do i use it
please help
i did everything but when i change the things nothing happens
Hi, For those folks who are having problems with the rig please read the note in the description. Cheers
great it's awesome model thanks..
thats the best... yes...
Great job! Only problem I have is that Im not able to scale the book down.. At the moment its larger than my character.. :)
This is awesome, I am noticing some issue with pages sticking at random angles.
Everything is working great for me. Unfortunately I haven't yet figured out how to use keyframes to animate it through the custom properties.
awesom...
Not working for me HELP
Look for an alert in the middle screen, in the top menu, enable and it is working.
GREAT WORK! Thanks for sharing! :D
thank you so much
Hi, I've been looking into your book-rig. :) It's really nice. There is only one tiiiiiny little thing tho.. =p Is there any possibility you could get the script/rig working with blender 2.8? I know it's still in alpha, but I really, really would like to use it in an animation I'm working on. :)
pelit woyyy
Amazing work! Save a ton of rigging time. Thanks for sharing.
Hi, I'm trying to texture pages on your book rig. And I've noticed that your book rig "stretches" pages non-uniformly when they turn. This stretches the texture that's applied to the page. How would you get around this?
