Chief did tell us when X13 got released, X14 would be on time.

EXACTLY

for me, this is a very good upgrade even without the real time raytracing, the edit cad blocks without exploding them is a huge time saver, save as template is also huge for starting new plans based on old plans similar to the "Save as method" in the old days. Many other good new features make it worth it.

i got the r-12 with upgraded drives ,CPU, 32gb and just a standard 1660 video card b/c I already have a 3060. In have been using 2- 4k monitors for quite a while now without any problems, you can adjust the size of things in windows or nvidea control panel, or Chief itself. I like the 4k for good resolution for renders.

just got my SSA renewal, went to pay it but apparently it wasn't ready to pay yet, so I was wondering if X14 will be available 2-1-22 as usual except for last year.

I also just ordered a new Alienware but don't get it until next month.

California is fickle for sure; I work in around 50 different cities here and they are all somewhat different especially in the zoning codes. The California building codes are also different than the ICC codes. The more plan checks you go through here, the better you will get. You can get them free on the internet in pdf form, so you can add exact text to your plans. Good luck

Larry, I always leave all the auto framing on until the very final phase when I need to make some modifications to it. I just don't see those long delays and my computer is getting old and just ordered a new one.

Larry is there anything running in the background while you are working? your specs look ok to me. Do you have lots of complicated railings? I do try to stay with intel processers I7 or I9 and always have. Good luck, I can see why you are going crazy.

i have been building the second floor up on a 4x8 block up on top of the existing c.j. , double block between the ceiling joists I have been doing this for 40 years now. The framers love it b/c you create a duct space and room for large beams when needed. manother plus is new floor is not a part of the ceiling , so no sound transmission . The clients I work with want nothing to do with trusses of any kind. extra time is most of the reason. After the block up you have approx. 18" to work with

Sorry I don't have that one but solver is correct

I think it got in too late for the latest fix, maybe next time.

i have asked that this be fixed for many years, we need Chief to give us separate ridge and ledger edit boxes. Right now I just put the ridge in with the roof beam tool and leave the ridge the same size as the rafters. Edit. also need a way to have ,or not have, a fascia on any selected roof plane edge.

black flicker is still there for me.

everything went fine for me, no problems.

It's now called plumbing fixtures.

I also see this.

You can also try to turn on "rooms" for that view

I would also crank up the exposure to around 70 and add 20 to the saturation and brightness

300 for me but test out different resolutions to see if that helps.

I use a reference display ,also good for showing roofs on different levels

pony wall with a wall cap is the way I would attack it also

I have been using windows 11 on my desktop for a few months now and not seeing any problems with Chief so far. As for a laptop, I don't use one, screen is just too small for these tired eyes.

I will use a 24" door for a walk-in attic access door.
