How can I mirror the constraints pose

[JohnArtbox]

I can do this by hand but it seems like such a waste. Is there a way to mirror the fan bone constraints in my constraints pose form the RHS to the LHS of my model.

Flipper adds the bones and Mirrorsplines adds the mesh points to the correct bones. The only thing left is to be able to automatically add the constraints.

Any Ideas?

Hmmm....well, you might try "paste mirrored." I don't know if that will flip constraints--never tried it myself for that purpose--but it's worth a shot.

(edit: never mind, I just realized that, even if it does sucessfully flip the constraints, it almost certainly won't flip their targets correctly.)

tried that, it didn't work. Back to the manual method.

In a old video tut on rigging i have(by Eggprops, is it ok to mention it here?) it was done in a text editor by saving a Left model and doing a replace left for right, save the Right model, import the model, flip the new root bone, make it a child of the first bone and delete it. It was done with the fan bones applied. It was back with 8.5, but i guess it would still be possible.

Interesting idea. I'll try that with my next character and see how it works.

Thanks
