Hi guys someone out there please give me a hand in this. I have an object i made and trying to copy with out remaking... problem is i want object B to be the reflect of object A. Same thing but going opposite direction.. i use the rotate feature but its the exact copy.... wondering if this is a bug or what but i really need to learn how to fix this..


Thanks for any advise , Raven


Ps. I'm sure many more have come to this problem so there has to be a solution somewhere lol i just cant find it in the forums.

If I understand correctly, you want a mirror image copy of an object.
You are out of luck.
No such option. You have to build another one.

There's no built-in way, but you can use Jeffery Gomez's "Prim Mirror" script to do the job.

Would placing a script in each prim that rotates it 180 degrees only on the y axis work? seems to me it should. Can make a script that rotates object on local y axis then deletes itself. drag into each prim.

The relative positions between the objects would not also be reflected, even if you managed to reflect each prim relative to its own center. In general I think you have to go in and mess with all the settings (cut, twist etc) to get a true mirror.
