DRAWZILLA

Have you tried making that wall" balloon through ceiling". Or the wall abv. go through floor

I always zoom in first.

Video card looks a little weak, it's not Chief

The pony wall with a railing on top could be used for a lot of things, that would sure solve some problems.

I agree, Joe, Chief has worked on Stairs a lot, but there is only so much they can do for each yearly release, but they are getting better with each new release. I can see a future where there is no more complaining about stairs. Maybe if Chief had more time between releases , stairs would be done. Though, I for one actually like the yearly releases, b/c I can get some new goodies faster.

Change it to 10 in the rendering technics options, remember there are two places to change it, one is for just that view and the other is the camera default. 30 is just too much

Yep, that would be a good feature.

You can also get large floor beams in that space without any trouble.

For me the square footage price will stand unless you are just doing the exterior walls, than maybe less. I never charge by the hour, people I know want to know a final price up front. Remember if they want a 3d view than you have to do parking ,plants and landscaping. All those things are an extra charge on my books.

I do this a lot, for the floor on the second floor, that way anything on the second floor creates the automatic overbuild or lower ceiling of the existing ceiling joists below. What you show is the only and fastest way I know of how to do it unless you already have it set up in your template plan. Every second floor addition I do has this type of detail. The only problem is if the ceiling joists are going a different direction than the new floor joists, have to manually fix that in the sections by adding some cross boxes. I use the space as a duct space and call it that ,instead of air space. Just copy air gap and change the name

Try changing the louvre size to get more louvre's

It's just a very large gassy planet indeed.

Also if you use a balloon frame wall on the first floor wall , it will not show on the 2nd floor.

What about us aliens in Uranus.

Right now I don't , but willing to learn if anyone knows.

Don't you want a roof on it too? You would need to include elevations.

Part of the reason that Chief won't give a complete list of the new tools is that it is still in testing and Chief doesn't want to get everyone excited with a new tool that just (for lots of reasons)doesn't make it to the final release. I've seen it.

one thing is that you need to let it go longer than you did ,to get rid of the speckle's. How many passes is that?

well. I guess that answers the question, very funny.

Also could be a video card issue

Hey Michael , you sure represent Alaska well, with the beard. No freezing your face off for you. Finally good to see you.

There are some t-bar textures in the lib. You can use those on the ceiling. There is a way but I don't do it-no commercial for me, but I have seen it. search the forum.

Raise the lower roof up ,by using the transform-replicate tool in the + z direction to what you want.

I'm not getting any E-mails automatically sent to me on the posts I put anything on, and the check to send me -e-mails is checked.

The lines just might go away when you print to "PDF" also.
