I resolved meanwhile. For some reason, the number of deformers were double of the number of real deformers...Envelope saved, reenveloped, envelope loaded, and now just fine
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Martin Sent: Thursday, June 20, 2013 12:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Mirror weights causes Unspecified failure I'm not sure if it is related, but Create symmetry template gets you an error if your enveloped model weights aren't normalized and the sum of the weights per point isn't 100. It usually happens when you import FBX, the weights aren't normalized and the weights sum about 99.9 or 100.001, but SI doesn't flag them. You can normalize your weights by selecting your points, check normalize in your weight editor and Add 0 weight to any deformer.

This has happened to me before, and it was related to a corrupted piece of geometry. That asset may have been created in a previous version of XSI, who knows. Our methods here at very cavalier, as every modeller/TD has their own techniques, so its quite common for geometry to get corrupted somewhere in the process. Once it happens, usually envelope operations will stop working properly. Basically, I just export out as OBJ, reimport, Gator everything across, and its fixed. best of luck, E On Thu, Jun 20, 2013 at 5:16 PM, Szabolcs Matefy <[email protected]> wrote: Hey folks, I want to mirror skinning from a portion of the mesh to the opposite side.

Can it cause an issue? I can't do any edit, since the folder is read only, and our admin doesn't let me play with the rights in my Softimage folder...
