Mirror, Mirror - a plugin for cinema 4d

The problem is one which crops up quite frequently. You have an object, or perhaps a whole hierarchy of objects, and you would like to reflect them over an axis. In other words, to make the object(s) mirror images of themselves. You might also want to duplicate the object before mirroring it.

However, you can't always do this easily. Cinema has the Symmetry object and the Mirror tool - but there are disadvantages with both. Mirroring a series of objects manually is always possible but can be time-consuming and sometimes frustrating. Mirror, Mirror is intended as a one-click solution to this problem.

Rather than going into detail here about what the plugin can do, I strongly encourage you to read the plugin help file (in PDF format) which also explains some of the limitations in the plugin. Also, there are two short videos which show how it works, and you can download a demo of the plugin. The demo version is fully functional, but will only work for 30 days after first use.

Buy Mirror, Mirror

As this is my first commercial plugin, I've deliberately kept the price low. The cost of a single license is $15 (that's US dollars, the universal currency of the internet!). You can buy with PayPal, but if you don't have a PayPal account, you can use any major credit card when you arrive at the PayPal site. There's no need to open an account.

Please don't forget to enter your C4D serial number in the box below for the plugin license! I just need the first 11 digits of the license, not the rest of the letters which follow - these are personal to you. Make sure you send the correct number - it will start with something like 100... or 101... for C4D versions R10 and R11 respectively. Numbers starting with 510... or 511... are point version numbers (R10.5, R11.5) and are NOT required, it's the full version number that is needed.

Licenses are generated manually, not automatically, so once you order a license, you will normally receive it by email within 2 working days.
