3ds max 2012 - Skin deformation lattice

[Avila]

I just finished weighting vertices on my model. Now I've finished with the deformation lattices for shoulder, elbow, knee, waist, and so on. But I only did it on one half of the model, I want to copy and mirror paste those lattices to the other side, but I can't figure out how. I've tried copying and pasting bones and vertices in mirror mode, pasted one of the lattices and twisted it. Didn't work.

Any tips? Thanks in advance

copy your existing gizmo using the copy button on the gizmos rollout

select the opposite bone and verts you want to apply it to

create a new gizmo and then click the paste button on the gizmos rollout

Hey poopipe. I tried that, but it pastes the lattice without mirroring it, it copies exactly as on the original side, and the result is far, far away from ideal. I also tried adjusting the twist value after pasting, but it only rotates the lattice in one axis, not two, and the lattice cp are upside down

ah, I see. it probably doesn't support mirroring then.

to be honest I find these things hard to work with and much prefer to use skin morph

Ok, so I decided to try skin morph.

I'm able to create the morphs at the frame I need to, and can move them around, but I can't see the verts, nothing turns orange (see attached image). Any suggestions?
