I am trying to paint the weight of bones on my mesh, but when I paint one side, the other gets painted too. How do I turn off symmetry for weight painting? Also there is a problem with one leg on my mesh. When I try to paint weight on, it messes the mesh up really bad. This only happens with one leg. Here is a picture of before and after painting the leg.
Mirror is unchecked, but the problem is still happening. I mirrored my mesh along the Y axis on accident when I was modeling the mesh, could that be an issue?
