to those than it would allow to mirror a sculptie along x,y or z as well.

Then you would only need to sculpt one shoe and get the other one by combining flip and invert with the same sculpt-texture.

how 'bout just two checkboxes:

[] Mirror
[] Inside-out

mirror flips in the x direction, and inside-out inverts the normals.

i don't think we need code to mirror on the y/z axis - because if you want to mirror along those, you simply need to construct your sculptie so that you switch x with y/z. (or rotate to mirror along any vector.) and if you want to mirror along two axis at the same time, you need to remember your algebra (two mirrors = no mirror + rotation)

Having it done in SL would work best. just a little parameter that tells the client to interpret the image differently.

I am using the new skin, does that matter?

Edit: confirmed they only appear on the Default skin, not on the Silver skin.

Having a double-sided shape doesn't work out too well, as you can see.

I have tried the following:

Flipping the sculpt map - does not work, the sculpty appears inside out, sculpty map appears mirrored
Inverting the sculpt map - sculpty appears inside out, sculpt map is vastly different than the original
Flipping the normals in a 3D program and exporting the sculpt map - inside out sculpty, the sculpt map does look different
Baking the mirrored geometry as is - the item comes in not as the mirrored geometry but as the original, the sculpt map looks identical to the original

I can send you all of these sculpt maps - any help with this would be great. I have several sculpty objects that I have abandoned because of this issue - even some that were not mirrored geometry. I'm not sure if it's the limitations of the sculpty map or what but it definitely gets odd at times. The really odd thing is that I use the same base mesh for every sculpty that I make and my process is the same for each one - so why does the end result in Second Life vary so wildly?

I use both 3DS Max and ZBrush to create the sculptys but I usually bring those items into Sculpty paint to check them and smooth them out. But with the inside out problem this isn't displayed in Sculpty Paint at all - the object appears normal in that program.

if i'm understanding you correctly (you've created some mirrored shapes, but in SL they still appear unmirrored) the problem is either with the exporter you use, or the way in which you're creating the "mirror".

for example, if you're creating the mirror effect by applying a negative scale to one of the axis - most exporters ignore scaling. if your modeling software has some mechanism to apply the scale directly to the vertices (in maya, this is the "freeze transformations" operation) this should fix it for you.

regardless - your problem is unrelated to this jira entry. you might want to open a new one.
