Thanks Christopher, It doesn’t work on my rig, bones are flipped into a weird rotation, and IK handle is broken.. not sure what is the problem, it’s a 3 bone IKspring chain, with pole vector, IKHandle point constrained to a curve controller, Curve controller has a few meshes parent constrained to it, and the whole thing is under a master curve controller, and on top of that a group..
It might be a problem with my rig, although it’s working properly and doesn’t have issues with double transformations, and the whole rig can be moved and rotated from the group node and from the master control underneath it.. thanks to everyone who tried to help ☺ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Christopher McCabe Sent: יום ב 18 יולי 2016 19:03 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: OT: Softs Duplicate Symmetry in Maya?

I created a joint chain and constrained primitives to several of the joints with parent, and point constraints. Put everything under a group located at world 0.

I’ve already built the other side from scratch, it wasn’t a big complex rig, but it was a waste of time :/ I have not scripted for a few years now.. I’ll have to refresh my Jscript knowledge, and try to use it on learning some python I guess. so far switching to maya feels like a huge regression, I am sure it’ll get easier over time, but maya sure has some sickness to it, and sometimes feels like it came from the 80’s… (no offence to people born in the 80’s, myself is from the early 70’s ☺ ) To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: OT: Softs Duplicate Symmetry in Maya? There sure is no 100 percent accurate way to do it. You can use Skeleton > Mirror Joint but that only mirrors joints + IK Handles, no constraints or objects. It might be an opportunity for you to dig into some scripting work to make that happen. Again, there is no full-proof way of doing that, AFAIK. You can use scripting to do major bulk of work in modules, like building a stretchy leg or reverse foot etc. and then combine all the units together. I wouldn't call myself an expert when it comes to rigging in Maya but that is how I think it is done in most of the production work.
