Have you even lost data because you forgot to set Fake User for your Material, Action, Node Tree, etc.? We all have. But there is a nice, cheap addon which ensures you will never lose your data again
The Bone Widget addon allows you to set a custom bone shape with one click. The addon offers a lot of handy features for riggiers. You can choose from a number of shape presets, create your own shapes, reshape the widgets after they are applied, etc.
In this video we take an in-depth look at the Lazy Bones addon. This is cool utility that can convert am existing mesh to an armature that fits the mesh. In other words it auto-generates a deform rig based on an existing character or shape.
While I am releasing most of the Auto-rig pro tutorials on YouTube, there are exclusive Bonus chapters. Find out my workflow for retargeting, tweaking animation in the NLA, and creating scenes in this series of bonus lessons!
