About Riggedbooks

Riggedbooks is a Blender add-on for building rigged books ready for page‑flip animation. It provides two cover types—hard and soft—and includes page presets ranging from 10 to 100 pages. Geometry can be adjusted via parameters for cover size, thickness, spine curvature, and page bending shape. Randomized page control strength creates uneven page effects, and an arch control panel tunes page relaxation when open. Materials are simple, with separate controls for cover surfaces and per‑page front/back image nodes, plus a one‑click batch texture replacement. A rough‑edge effect adds detail to edges. Each cover and page carries its own keyframes; the animation can be baked to a static mesh or exported as FBX for Unity, Cinema 4D, Maya, or 3ds Max, or as an OBJ sequence for Cinema 4D or E3D. Four example files and a demo video are included.
