Blender add-on that thins out dense mocap or baked keyframes while keeping the motion and timing.

What Keyframe Decimator does

Motion capture and baked simulations leave curves with far too many keys. RUIDO VFX's Keyframe Decimator trims them after you set a range and an intensity.

Intensity determines how aggressive the cleanup is; at 1, it keeps one key and removes the next, alternating through the range. Define exactly where optimizing starts and stops, and enable Keep Last Frame to protect the final pose. It handles complete armatures, single bones or any animated object. Animators get curves that are lighter and easier to edit.

  • Adjustable cleanup intensity
  • Custom start and end range
  • Keep Last Frame option
  • Works on armatures, bones and objects
