Blender MHW Anim Tools

MHW Anim Tools

A Blender add-on for Monster Hunter World animation workflows built around

This release targets Blender 4. 5 LTS.

MHW Anim Tools is focused on inspecting, importing, editing, and exporting supported Monster Hunter World animation data in Blender, with a conservative source-backed workflow for safer roundtripping.

  []Preserve and rebase raw TIML data during merged export[/]

  []Import attached TIML controller data[/]

  []Edit supported TIML values in the TIML Workspace / Graph Editor[/]

  []Write supported TIML edits back through source-backed LMT export[/]

Requirements

• []Blender 4. 5 LTS[/]

  []Blender MHW Model Editor

  []Nexus: https://www.nexusmods.com/monsterhunterworld/mods/8390[/]

[/]

[]Monster Hunter: World assets extracted separately[/]

[]A compatible MHW-style armature/model imported through Blender MHW Model Editor[/]

MHW Anim Tools expects the model / armature workflow from Blender MHW Model Editor for normal LMT import, edit, and export use.

You can still inspect some files without a target armature, but the main animation workflow requires a proper MHW-style armature.

Important notes

This tool is conservative on purpose.

If something cannot be safely preserved or rebuilt, the add-on should block it and explain why instead of silently creating broken output.

Imported LMT actions cache source file identity information. Source-backed export can block if the source file changed or can no longer be matched confidently.

Some LMT files con
