  3. Thank you Rene, these will be very helpful!
  4. ok, thought i had that set to 2000 lux, it was at the default of 100,000. It made a difference for sure but still faintly there. This isn't a paying job so
  5. nope failed as soon as i tried to adjust the sun time to February 15th it was on june15th
  6. Yes tried the enhanced lighting on/off no affect. But when I tried the sun on (was using generic light follows camera setting) now it looks correct! what a bugger of a new feature! thanks Graham
  7. hi Graham I did try that and it didn't work. Even tried different cameras from different angles to test. No difference Thank you, can post a copy of plan if needed. I agree with the all the comments about this feature not ready for release. Also super dispointed it broke the raytrace capability! I do mostly exterior raytrace and its all messed up.
  8. Hi Scott, Try using the option to chose another program and in that dbx is the option to always use this program for the file type. No positive if this is the same on a mac tho.
  9. Hello fellow users, I am liking the pbr camera, thanks to all your testing and adjustments! Shout out to Graham, Mick, Larry I have experienced a weird siding color disparity in a railing wall using the same exterior wall type. The siding on the bottom of the railing wall where it covers the floor system. It doesn't seem to matter if its a solid railing type or baluster type. I just reported it to tech support.
  10. Hi Bob, Close chief, make a copy of the x9 user library and place it into the x10 Database Libraries folder. Start chief
  11. Also don't forget the WindsorONE moldings library. Has some molding styles from the past. Its a Manufacturers library
  12. If they are drawn at full scale originaly, just import them into cad detail. then send to layout to required scale. you could even do that in your layout cad details, so it stays with your template.
  13. Jason, Select your roof tool, hold your shift key down and draw a marquee around all roof planes. Then go to the transform and replicate dbx and put a check in the box beside move category. Then put 12" in the Z section. This will move all roofs at the same amount and not mess with the manual ones.
  14. Depending on the data type, I import directly into a blank plan to see how it works.
  15. Hi harrisd, I can help you with your plan and training on x9. Please contact me to discuss specific details that you need help with and costs. Send a private message with your contact info.
  16. I think it has to be done when you install chief on the machine. Custom install.
  17. Hi Griffin, I am sure I can help. I sent you pm. Thank you, Michael
  18. Tommy, Make sure in the options panel that it is set to 1 vertical panel. other wise they work here.
  19. ok, what part of the plan or layout were you working on. Just trying to help jog memory I would be suspicious of the ssd, can you try put your plans on a disk drive? just saw your last post on hot keys, starting to wonder if there is a problem with the data folder? Is there any background processes running that might be affecting the folder. like back up routines, system back up commands etc just thinking out loud, I dislike technology problems as much as you do right now!
  20. Why is Chief crashing? What was the last command given?
  21. What I have noticed is that the material default does not change. Has to be made default in new wall copy.
