I had a look at your file, you need to look at that video most of the issues are talked about in that video, the problems I saw auto roof not turned on roof, auto deck framing not turned on for deck and roof not turned on for deck rooms
-
I replayed the video there is no background noise try watching on a different on a different computer or phone as for trouble simplifying the model just remove stairs draw a square deck tha get that right then add back the stairs also don’t turn off auto deck framing.

See if this file helps it may get you moving in the right direction
-
The floor plans don’t show the roof plains ask the client if the have a more detailed set of drawings you never know they may have given you the wrong set of drawings.
-
A roof plan might make it easier to understand that roof if one exists
-
Try this file you need to keep elevation data seperate not touching or overlapping its not perfect but get you moving in the right direction

Ya that kind of works on the inside do you think just adding a second floor for the area with the high ceiling would fix that problem?
Not sure give it a go the added floor might be better, if you don't want to see those walls on first floor put them on different layer so you can turn off
-
Give this file a go, with interior ceiling fill walls I drew interior walls and dragged up from the floor and exterior attic wall i adjusted it length

Upload your plan so we can see what is wrong

Its in your library

It should work fine you do it on your second floor level

I want to achieve this style railing.
This is what I have created so far. How to get the spindles to go horizontal?
If I apply a horizontal tube railing style from the catalogue it does not want to curve and follow the staircase.
Is there a style of railing in the catalog that can produce a horizontal 1/2” tube that spirals to follow a spiral staircase like this?
I could make that as a symbol if that would help if interested send me a private message

Can you upload the plan as it is hard to see what is going on
-
Untick use soffit surface for ceiling in stairwell and loft playroom on room structure tab.

Not sure what I am looking at but if that is a roof plain on the lower section that will stop wall the going to full height, you will need to drag it to the other side of the wall, if not upload your plan file so someone can help you.
-
Select the attic wall under root tab select roof cuts wall below.

I would first try using only the major contour lines for elevation data as chief will get slowed down if you use all minor contours , then if needed you could add some minor contours for correct shaping.
if you have the cad file you could import to chief I think x12 may have import ability the video is using x13
Also if you have built the terrain and are having trouble upload your file you will probably get a fix

Select first floor room and unselect floor supplied by foundation below as your first floor has no floor.

You don’t have to use project management if the old way suits you , you can turn it off in preferences.
You navigate to plan file in project management right click export disconnected plan then save and place on forum it will even zip it if you want
