Mirrored animation clips

Questions
1

Hi, I was wondering how I can make a mirrored animation clip from a clip targeting humanoid avatar. By mirror I mean left/right flipping: moves for the right parts of the body be bound to the left corresponding parts, and vice versa. Any experience to share?

Obviously, this is not a solution, but here is how I mirrored a Mixamo character and its animation. The trick is very simple, please, do not laugh at me. Because the model is too big, the left one is scaled down with:

object1.scale.set( 0.05, 0.05, 0.05 );

while the right model is scaled with the same factor, but with negated x for mirroring:

object2.scale.set( -0.05, 0.05, 0.05 );

Ha , it looks like a nice trick, although I was just asking for building a mirror of the animation clips. I can definitely use your solution in some cases.Thanks for sharing.
