Flipping a Smart Bone action

[dueyftw]

Anyone have an idea on how to flip a smart bone action?

Here is the problem. I have a smart bone that is a dial that I happy with it in one direction but want the same point motion in the reverse.

You should be able to select all the point motion keyframes and alt+drag the first past the last to reverse them.

Do you mean create the opposite point motion in the other direction of the smart bone action? If so, you can copy/paste the point motion keys, then use dkwroot's script to flip them in the opposite direction.

The script: Mirror + Flip Mesh Buttons

This script is a fantastic aid for creating head turns.

None of that will work. The problem is that I have shapes that collapses on itself. I figured it out. I render out as png's then flip them. Now I have a reference to where I can move the points. It's not going to be the same motion. but the only person will know will be me.

Just some tedious work ahead.

Yeah, some preplanning is needed for point flipping to work so it's not an automatic method by far. I used to mirror my turns as you described and, yes, I've been there...sometimes the hard way is the only way to get the job done.

Is this for the Ansuzu series? I'm looking forward to seeing some wips if the creator will allow it.
