Re: When you forget to press the Symetry button...
The symmetry tools in Gear are using the symmetry map. Just make sure to create it when your mesh is still symmetrical. Then you can do whatever shape work on one side, you will be able to symmetrize it.

And they're completely essential for me these days, thanks again Jeremie! On Monday, 21 January 2013, Jeremie Passerin gerem@gmail.com wrote: And by the way, all the gShapeTools are part of Gear (There is actually more and are a bit better in Gear) -- www.matinai.com
Re: When you forget to press the Symetry button...
Thank you both for the help. David, I’d like to try your solution before Gustavo’s one, but... how do you mirror a shapekey? or do you mirror the weight map? is there a tool for that?

Looks great! Simpler than my method (Make a new shape key out of the new edits, blend off the shape key to only one side, mirror the shape key, Now it's a perfect mirror. Replace Shape Key) Question. I haven't used ICE really at all. Do you have to create an ice tree for a model to use it? How did you get the menu item you use in the video?

Hi! I use: http://jeremiepasserin.com/blog/index.php?post/2009/08/30/gShapeTools And, to blend a shape to just one side, make a weightmap and ModulateShapeKeyWithWeightMap.

Re: When you forget to press the Symetry button...
I'd install GEAR, as it has a number of useful shape tools, one of them is mirror shape points, select points to mirror, select shape, press button, done.

Re: When you forget to press the Symetry button...
stupendous Gear does the trick , and I’ve found there’s no need for a weight map, I used “symetrise shape”. great tools Jeremie From: Matt Morris Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2013 18:45 To: David Saber ; softimage@listproc.autodesk.com Subject: Re: When you forget to press the Symetry button...
