Hi guys, can anyone advice me on how to mirror a bone chain that is attached to a mesh with skin?
Im having trouble trying to mirror this mesh as it gets all over the place when i try to do so.
Can you check this file and maybe tell me how to achieve it?
Thanks guys
Hi there,
didn’t check the file, but I see it’s a max file. I’m guessing that you are trying to mirror arm or leg bones or something like that.
Instead of using “Mirror” from toolbar, use Animation (menu) / Bone Tool -> Mirror. Note that “Reference Coordinate System” matters, it will give you the center plane of mirroring. You can pick axis and which axis to flip on other side. Then it is just a matter of adding new bones to skin.
