Feature Sets

Rigify allows third party developers to implement sub-add-ons, called Feature Sets, which can provide new Meta-Rigs and Rig Types. Similar to regular add-ons, they can be installed from zip-files through Rigify settings.

These are some examples of Feature Sets currently provided by past and current Rigify developers:

Cessen's Rigify Extensions

This feature set provides the original Rigify rigs by Nathan Vegdahl, minimally ported and repackaged to work without switching Rigify to legacy mode. Note that their names were changed, so meta-rigs designed for legacy mode aren't directly compatible.

Experimental Rigs by Alexander Gavrilov

Rig experiments, some of which might be included in Rigify in the future.

You can install these packages by clicking Clone ‣ Download ZIP, and then install the downloaded file through Rigify settings.

Developer documentation is available on the Blender Wiki.
