Since you don't appear to have a basement below the terrain.  Open the terrain dbx, uncheck " hide terrain intersected by building"

I can help you, I am in Minnesota. Give a call.

Made this in chief a while back.

It was modeled from a pre made one you could buy. Don't recall the mfg.

enjoy, if you find it useful.

I haven't tried this Larry, I suppose it would take a bit of time to get thru. I have been using caps lock as well, but then switch to typing an email and look up to see all caps! doh

It is the material region you used in that location to make the wall have a different color stucco.

I would suggest using a pony wall if you want this to look like that

I meant to say a wall material region tool was used, instead of a pony wall. if the face of the wall is the same you shouldn't get those unwanted lines.

I was curious after reading your results. Here are my passmark results.

I am pleased and its been running at 4ghz or more for 4 years.

I did just add the new gtx 960

Here is a copy of your plan. Look inside to see how it was made.

Also the numbers in the sketch were off a little. and the pitch on the model is 6-12 so adapted to that pitch.

Brian,

Chief  has a bonus library called log truss components. if your pitch and length is a common one, they have pre made ones. Other wise individual logs to make your own.

I am seeing the same behavior Tommy.

Hi Todd,

Here is a repaired copy

The fascia hgt of the bathroom roof plane was off. (203 7/8) should be 204 1/2

I found the ceiling planes in the room next to this offending wall to be the problem.

Both planes are set extending into the wall to the exterior of framing layer. This is not the correct placement. Pulled the plane inside the room. left the base line on exterior of wall how you placed it. 

I place my ceilings on the inside of the wall framing to start the plane.

David,

That did the trick, I downloaded the folder to the same location as the plan and all textures are present when opening the plan! 

thanks again!

David,

Thank you for your time and expertise!

I have no Idea why it doesn't work on my puter, is it a setting in windows 10 maybe?

I tried a new download of calibz file and the plan.  no joy. this is the error message I get.

Try the backup entire plan, select the files to be sent to a zip.

This is how a sample file download from Chief comes.

I think since you copied and renamed the original texture file, chief has lost its link to the location of the texture.

LOL Lew good one!

Great tip Yusuf, we could also use this method for exposed stringers.

thank you Joe!!!

In the fixture (component) dbx

Hey fellow users

I looked at this again and if the beam pocket is no more than half way to the exterior of the wall. It doesn't cut the foundation wall.

I suppose this makes sense, most pockets are only 4 inches deep. 

I am also missing the textures.

I am getting the same result. Will send a report. Good catch Joey

A quick way to achieve this.

Put 2 breaks in the roof down at the eave edge.

Pull the edge between the breaks up, to have an opening in the roof to walk thru.

There is also a problem with the live views and printing to pdf.

Will be sending to support shortly.

Thank you Michael

I think Chief should compensate you for fixing there symbol!

Mike,

Here is a copy of your plan. If you look you will see that the room needs to be set to deck for the framing to be correct.

The Balcony Room setting was causing the framing to not generate correctly. If you reconnect it and build the framing again you will see what I mean.

Use the anno set - (framing) to view the framing on the 0 basement floor level.

hth,

Also try unchecking the box in the export.    (truncate texture names )
