Symmetrical PolyModelling ?

[Rudity]

Nope there isn't a symetry map as far as I know.

But you can work around it.

Duplicate half of the model your working on as an instance.
then scale it -(your current x value).
Thats what I do.

thnx rudity... i´ve hoped somebody could point me to a new way to do this. or anybody knows a script which does that.
i already knew the mirrored instance method, but i thought there was something more comfortable developed since the last time i used Maya ;)

thnx anyway! ;)

Oh by the way, could anybody explain how to put this one to use,
I mean how to set dialog box of the script to make it appear in maya.
Since I am completly new to this program:shrug:

Thanks in advance!

@leszek
thnx for the tip.. i tried it, but i think with the mirrored instance method youre still faster... but the script has other nice options which made it good to have..

btw: to start it, just copy it to the script folder of your profile and then start Maya..
to activate the script type smuWin (Case sensitive) in the command line at the bottom and press enter.
