Perfectly mirrored symmetry morph
Write Idea
Posts: 316
I have a G8M facial morph that is asymmetrical in the eyes. The left eye was made smaller than the right eye. I was hoping to correct the symmetry so the left side would match the right. I'm not sure what I'm looking for to properly fix the problem (if it even is fixable in the first place). The only thing I'm finding is symmetry modifiers and symmetrize.
Thank you in advance.

In edit mode, select the whole mesh (or all the parts of the mesh you want to restore symmetry on) and then Mesh >> Snap to Symmetry. That's the nondestructive one. This averages the sides of your mesh, so you'll then need to adjust both eyes (in whatever way) to match the original shape of the right eye.
Actually you don't have to make it in Blender, just quickly fix it with Morph Loader Pro in DS... like this G8F example down below -
- Export you G8M with that asymmetrical morph dialed to OBJ file with the morph name (set Resolution Level to Base beforehand)
- Import the OBJ file back with Morph Mirroring option to update the asymmetrical morph
- Then save the morph asset.
Wow, that would've made my life a lot easier if I had ever noticed it. Thanks, crosswind!
