Forgive my ignorance, but when I clicked on yours it shows the same price? I have a hard time believing anything with a 4070 is less than $2K US

oh Canadaian conversions?

Id go with eluktronics instead for that price. Better thermals which is important, more RAM, way more cores and faster processor. same price. great company https://www.eluktronics.com/prometheus-xvi-g2

I’m surprised rtrt quality was your inhibitor on Twinmotion considering none of the options you listed are rtrt quality save for sharing the chief model, and even then they would need a compatible card. you can do complete walkthroughs with simple keyboard navigation in Twinmotion cloud and the Physically Based Rendering is far superior to chiefs for the cloud presenter. a side note… I would never give my client a model. That’s like leaving a level on a job…

I am learning macros, at a decent pace, but this consistantly eludes me. I would like to see a WORKING and COMPLETE example of a macro that accumulates totals which includes an individual publisher with a count greater than 1. Example, I want to assign the value of 20 to a custom field on an object, and add it to an accumulating total from other publishers that have values in that same custom field. Then report the count and also the total to global macros so I can use them in other calcs. Everytime I try and make this work, the accumulation compounds for every redraw, despite me putting in a step for resetting the totals.

Joe, take a look at this stream I did today and mentioned you a few times:

I will say you will not get RTRT with this laptop and once youve started using RTRT you don't really feel like going back..its a fantastic rendering method. Will also say that I have both nvidia and amd machines and the AMD machine has been such a better experience with driver issues over nvidia..night and day. So I would recomend the Legion 7 with the amd 6850x and 32gb ram

What is your current machine? I am assuming your signature isnt correct as it wouldnt give you the option to raytrace. Crashing has more to do with drivers than with machine spec..it may be that you do not need to purchase anything new and if you did, that you might run into the same issues. Driver updates are an important part of maintaining function in RT

Not quite. The 0" drywall layer is so that it shows drywall where the wall covering doesnt cover, because otherwise it would show framing...but your molding takes care of that. So the method is simply a invisble material on your drywall with a wall covering down to the reglet in your molding. What did you discover, any other hiccups with the pony wall method? Exterior walls fine? door settings? etc.

in that case you can eliminate the step where I modify the wall types

Either quote me or at mention me(click on my name in drop down) or it wont notify me here: %automatic_label[0..1].include?("SB") && type[0] == 'B' ? ('BSC' << ((height - countertop_thickness).to_f.to_i.to_s) << width.to_f.to_i.to_s) : automatic_label% this checks for the condition that the automatic label sees this as a sink base..so bear that in mind your automatic label should be in place on your default base cabinet. If the condition isnt met that your cabinet automatically reports SB in the automatic label then it will put the default automatic_label

just as an FYI @ACADuser and Tools:Checks:Spell Checking works

I have a cabinet label system in my pro plan template but honestly it took 10s of hours to create so I wouldnt just offer it up here...it takes into account a ton of cabinet labeling conditions such as filler labels, appliance labels, glass cabinet labels, Microwave labels, spice cabinets garba pullouts etc. For what you are asking, a simple replace script would work inline Eric gives a great example..here is another:

nice

Create a new macro in TMM and name it whatever you like, simple to name is winSuffix...then paste this code and check evaluate and change context to owner object Keep in mind this retains all other labeling conventions from type code that fall outside of Left sliding and right sliding. Put this in your window label as follows: %FormattedOpeningWidth%%FormattedOpeningHeight%%winSuffix% Note:I like to use downcase for future-proofing # Copyright Rabbitt Design 2023 # CHECKING THE PUBLISHER VALUES FOR TYPE_CODE # CHECK THE DOWNCASED VALUE AND ASSIGN winSuffix ACCORDINGLY if type_code.downcase == 'ls' winSuffix = "XO" elsif type_code.downcase == "rs" winSuffix = "OX" else winSuffix = type_code end winSuffix

For doors, you need a macro that looks at %swing_side% and %hinge_side% and creates conditional macros based on those values. For windows its a simple conditional replacement where you look for %type_code% and then report conditional string "XO" for type code "LS" or OX for type code "RS"

Yes it can, takes a bit of know-how

Copy it to your user library and either modify the symbol to be used as a lock where you will need to change the symbol's X Origin Offset or convert it to millwork and apply it as a closed one side shutter where you will need to rotate the symbol in the Z axis 180 degrees and do an x and y offset for your condition

I would first post this in the Q&A forum. This forum really should just be for Chief ready symbols IMO. I've asked chief if we could get some mods in here to clean up and properly sort these dang forums in past. Maybe some day Next can you post the original link you downloadde from? The obj fil is missing its associated material file and without it someone would have to texture this by hand and it would be very time consuming

This is because chief is wrapping your brick back to the siding wall. You should create your own return instead by taking the continuation handle of your brick wall and returning it back. See screenshot
