> ### 🔧 Workshop Rig 3.0 & Animations
> 
> Implementing the new Workshop rig has been an arduous task, but it’s been having great payoff. This new rig has allowed for more **fluid animation** of player models, IKs, and easier options for **modifying proportions** of a model, and massive **improvements to the process of rigging player models**. We’ve retargeted the old rig to work with the new rig (and existing player models) without any changes needed. That means that **legacy Workshop player models** will be compatible immediately. The animations have all be overhauled and improved in many ways.
> 
> We’ll have more information on the new SDK 3.0 very soon. But first, we’ll be releasing the updated animations and new rig support next update.
