I think you can partial gator since 2013 (I'm stuck with 2011 in this long
project so I'm not really sure)
But still gator needs you to have your points in the same global position to
copy their weights accurately.
So if you have your bones and meshes in a different global space and different
polygon shape but same bone names, then it won't work, you'll need scripting.
