Unless this changed recently this can't be done out if the box in Maya, please
correct me is I am wrong.
In Houdini you can use attribute transfer.

Hi all,
I already asked this question on a Maya
I haven't used that much Mayas latest versions, but AFAIK no.
You would need to:
- Reset to Bind Pose
- Duplicate obj A and obj B
- Combine duplicated unskinned obj A to obj B (getting obj C)
- Select obj C and apply bind Skin.
- Select obj A, obj B and obj C and apply Copy Skin Weights (inside
Good to know, it just requires more clicking...
Thanks Martin
I'm so tempted to use Houdini :)

Hi Nicolas:
In this case, unless the meshes need to be unibody for some reason (uv
maps etc.) I would keep them seperate in Maya, it is easier to seperate
weights this way, back them up and restore them seperately should the
need arise.
While the Copy Skin Weights tool in Maya works, I use

Yes, pretty much everything requires a lot more clicking in Maya.
BTW, you can't change topology without messing up your weights, so you'll
need to or save your weights by global position with an script
like doraSkinWeights, or duplicate your mesh and keep it as a weight
container to copy weights
Yew Siew for delivering in Maya the Send to Softimage button for me is a
lifesaver. I do all the correctives and shapes in Softimage and send them
back to Maya. Specially when you merge two geometries with each one has
shapes. Softimage handles that amazingly. You will get two sets of
shapes
So thing is or you're lucky that someone made a script in order to do
something you need or you're screwed if you don't know how to
scriptcrap...
The more I ask questions about Maya the more I feel depressed :'(

Finally 'send to' has a use, haha!
