Blender Addons & Development

Blender is an open source, 3D creation suite. It is a beautiful program that can do a surprisingly large number of things, from 3D modeling and animation, to video editing, to painting and image manipulation. What makes it even more powerful is that it’s easy to develop and modify through python coding. Moo-Ack! Productions has worked on a few addons and modules, listed below.

Minecraft MCprep addon

This is a blender python addon to increase workflow for creating Minecraft renders and animations, by automatically setting up better materials, importing library models and groups, and setting up proxy characters for animation and default animations for regular features like grass and leaves on imported 3D minecraft worlds. Featured on Blender Nation here and here.

Blender Addon Updater Module
