In a previous article I mentioned that I stopped publishing add-ons on blender market because basically I was done with it it: I didn't earn enough to warrant the amount of effort that goes into maintaining and supporting add-ons.
However, there is still quite some interest in some of the add-ons, and so I decided to open source some of the add-ons and make them available for free. The first one was Snap! then it was Weightlifters turn, my very first add-on published on BlenderMarket (now Superhive), back in 2014 (!), and now IDMapper.
Technically IDMapper already was open source, at least the source code was, but now I'm also open sourcing the manual, and that means that you can download the source from this GitHub repository (the releases section), and the manual is available too.
This repository is still a work in progress, but the code will run on 4.4. For now, simply download weightlifter.py and use the install from filesystem in the add-ons section. Then read the manual!
To give you some idea of its capabilities, there is a video on YouTube.
