Mirror Rig Script Demo
This script is still a WIP, and I’m not sure that it will ever officially be considered complete because there seems to be a new problem waiting around every corner. You can see, after the mirroring is done, that on the mirrored leg there is still a few twist helpers not properly aligned and one of the bone chains for the foot are orientated backwards. Solve one and run into another! But, its still fun trying, and it is working half-decently right now, so I thought it would be cool to put together a video of it in action.
The video shows the script processing with a “sleep” command embedded in the for-loop that is mirroring the rig. I put the sleep command in so that you can tell there are no camera tricks with clever cuts being made, as well as to actually have something to look at. Without the sleep it would literally just be me pressing a button, waiting 20 seconds or so, then the other half of the rig appearing magically. Not quite as interesting to watch :).
