The thread on Pavers led me to a nice grass texture @

I just opened you file and built an automatic roof with your settings.

The machines that you are showing will scream. More cores the better for Ray Tracing. Faster graphics card for working in 3d. Those cards with 2gb+ will scream.

What kind of roof do you want? Can you sketch the general look and post the plan?

I have been doing some experimenting with stainless. Check out the material in the attached file. It may work a bit better than what you are using.

Your file crashed CA for me. I attempted to change the stone material. I am pretty sure that is your resource hog on this file.

Not that you asked but do be mindful of copyright when using music that you don't own. If your video ends up on the internet you could find yourself in hot water if you have used the video to market yourself.

RayTrace with line drawing overlay. Be mindful that the OOB color for the line drawing is not actually black. I kept getting gray lines after the overlay until I realized that the black looking color was not black. The deep black allows you to adjust the opacity of the overlay layer a bit to finesse the image.

P.S. How do you get the images to show larger than the thumbnails?

Reduce your stem wall height to your proper location. ("I") in the diagram on the DBX.

This thread is an embarrassment to this forum. Take this discussion out of the Seeking Services area of the forum. I have no problem with the content, just the location.

You don't explode the bay. When selecting the bay click on the window. This will select the bay. Now hit the tab key and you will now have the window selected to modify it.

I think you challenge should have read something like this:

Something weird happened that makes no sense but I did something fairly random and something else happened. I challenge you to guess what it was.

Either

1. that window was placed with a pastes operation, or

2. room was not defined

3. wall no locate

Post your plan when asking a question like this and you will get an answer. Without a plan you get guesses.

Yusuf strikes gold again.

Yes, call tech support or sales support for some direction on that. Also, when you speak to them I suspect they will give you an extension on that trial by just saying "please".

Draw it from the side elevation. How is that legal marijuana thing going in Washington

Draw a poly solid or slab in elevation then set the depth.

I am not sure what you mean by "offset"?

Check an earlier plan in your archives and back up files.

Any shape you make can be turned into a symbol . When creating the symbol you set it as a door.

Amateur hour for me this week.

That is a very low resolution image. If you are going to do this I would recommend something at least 250 - 500 pixels. Almost everything you would be able to do in Photoshop you can do in Gimp for free.

Glitch with the last version. Try this one.

Chief has a great video on ray tracing which is focused a great deal on setting up your materials properly. I saw some major improvements in rendering after view that video.
