Problem. Choosing an auto-rigger for a stylised or non-standard character. Conditions. Vendor claims, not independent tests. Method. The AccuRIG page claims it handles oversized heads, obstructed shoulders, atypical limbs and held accessories, can generate hind legs for creature characters, adds extra bone segments to limit forearm twist artefacts, and saves FBX and USD. Its free-versus-advanced comparison table marks one-mesh A/T pose as supported, shows 'allow to import but cannot rig separately' for multi-mesh characters in the free version, and shows Generate Bones as not available in the free column. Use. Treat as a shortlist input; verify on your own mesh using Blender weight-QA steps (C3-B572-08) and test hands, fingers and props. Failure modes.

Accepting marketing claims; assuming A/T-pose requirements are optional. Limitations. Marketing page: no limits section, no test data, no version stated; independent docs (Reallusion manual) were not retrievable. Mixamo auto-rigger help pages could not be fetched (Adobe returned access denied), so Mixamo limits remain open. Version/date. Fetched 2026-10-23. Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Limitations: All claims are vendor marketing; the comparison table reading depends on text extraction order (X in free column, tick in CC4.1 column, an inference from the layout). Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
