Someone archive this; MediaFire links aren't permanent. MediaFire closes links that have been inactive for a long time. In a year or two, this link will likely be dead because the author has retired from animation.

>How did you find it?
I searched for show-accurate animation on pony boorus, found this author, and lurked in their Telegram channel shared under one of their animations. By digging more I found out they had retired from animation but had shared all of their rigs on MediaFire.
>Pros
- G4 pony rigs in technically superior software.
- Animation logic is straightforward—similar to 3D animation; you just move the skeleton and action bones.
- These rigs have actual armatures compared to Flash rigs. Flash/Animate rigs are just grouped and nested layers with no skeleton.
>Cons
- They aren't completely identical to show quality; the author modified a few visual things (e.g., the "mare stare" looks a bit different). They don't include all symbols from the official rigs (minor things like specific lip-sync and blink frames).
- No 360-rotation bones. They made separate rigs for each view, so you have to swap rigs or rig parts to rotate the whole body or the head. Most of their rigs only have three views (front, 3/4, and side).
- Layers are named in vodka runes and ESL. The author is from Ukraine (https://www.youtube.com/@Kitty_Drug_Puplic/) and probably only interacts with their closed circle of Russian-speaking friends.
>How do I animate them?
They haven't shared any tutorials for their rigs. However, after watching the official Moho tutorial playlist, I understood how the rig is built and played around with it a bit. It's easier than it seems; everything is more logical than in Flash/Animate.

tl;dr: These rigs aren't a 1:1 recreation of the official ones, but it's awesome to have an easy option to play around with ponies in Moho. Have fun!
