You'd think this would be obvious but I am standing here with one wing on completely baffled as to how to make the other. Heeeeelp!

MANUALLY.

Almost. You have to find a mirror script (search these forums for "mirror script";) and play with it. It's a pain.

It's a feature we've been asking for within the client for eons.

My buddy made a pretty easy-to-use mirroring dohickee. Oni, if you get in touch with me in-world I can try to wrestle you up one.

Copy your 1st wing (Hold Shift and drag a copy away).
Rotate it so its near same position as other wing, but facing oposite way.

Flip the texture on your new wing.
Go to EDIT - (Tick) "Select Texture".
Click on the side of your wing you wanna flip. (You will see a target on its face.)
Go to Texture TAB.
Flip texture either horizontal or vertical depending on ya wing.

Had me guessing that one for a while too.
