Hello all...Would it be possible to add a check box under a characters to make a character left-handed? I guess this would involve reversing the sign of movement parameters in the action scripts and flip horizontally, or rotate 180 degrees, any assets associated with them. I'm thinking in particular of musical instruments, as I've just finished my first video (well, have other ideas on the go so have stopped work on it, for now) in which I was unable to make one of the guitarists left-handed, as he is in real life. I presume this would affect someone doing a Beatles tribute video too

The video has been uploaded to Youtube

and I hope it will appear in the gallery in due course. The chap with the flying V should be a left-hander. Just a slight niggle I admit, but it would be nice to have the choice.

Hi Quorthon, one thing you can try is edit a camera and look at the base effects drop down. There is a horizontal flip option there. Using this, I think, you can make it look like the guitarist is left handed. Of course its not a perfect solution and you'd need to be clever about how you use it.
