Who made Eclipse Animator?
The Creator Store listing is published by @riftkuro, who has Roblox’s verified badge. The official tutorial’s description lists two people:
- riftkuro, “owner + developer for eclipse” (@riftkuro on X). riftkuro also publishes the Blender add-on and the Eclipse Video app on GitHub.
- Seven, “owner of eclipse” (@sevenqor on X).
If you searched “who is eclipse Roblox,” this is the team. The plugin sits under their Roblox group, Seventh Eclipse. It has nothing to do with the Eclipse IDE for Java or other software called Eclipse.
Is Eclipse Animator safe?
Get it from the official listing and you are installing what the developers published. On 2026-10-17 the listing showed the verified creator riftkuro and asset ID 86116556258301. The plugin contains scripts, as every Studio plugin does, so where you get it matters:
- Safe: the Creator Store page, installed with Studio signed in to your account.
- Not safe: .rbxm files, “cracked” or “free download” copies, and links in video comments. Fake plugins are a common way to sneak malicious scripts into games.
- The optional companion apps come only from riftkuro’s GitHub. See the download page.
Does it work on Mac, Chromebook or mobile?
Eclipse runs inside Roblox Studio, and Roblox’s setup guide says Studio is available on Windows and Mac. Studio is not offered for phones, tablets or Chromebooks, so Eclipse is not either. If something only breaks on Mac, report it in the Discord and say which Mac you use.

Is there an official website? Neither the store listing nor the tutorial links one. This site is not it. We are an independent guide.
Is it free, and will it stay free?
Status on 2026-10-17: Free right now ($0 on the store, launch window). The developers have not announced an end time or the price after launch. Community posts on launch day said the free window would only last a few days, so do not count on it. The price page tracks what is confirmed and what is only rumored.
How do I update it?
Restart Roblox Studio. Installed Creator Store plugins load their latest version when Studio starts. The developers ship updates often, so if a bug was “fixed” but you still see it, restart first. The release timeline lists the versions we have tracked.
Do I need Blender?
No. You can animate entirely inside Studio. Blender is only for people who want to bring in a Blender rig or move animation between the two programs. See the Blender guide.
