HI Attaching a roof plan I'm having trouble with. it's a 4 :12 pitch Interior great room is 16 ft high in front and 12' back towards the garage area. I think that's where my problem lies. ROOFS can be the most challenging depending on the house design. I di not do auto roof but roof planes instead -can't seem to get the roof schematic in my head. looking at it too long - shed roof + gable roofs - 7' overhang garage area being deleted . when i put it together it looks not at all like the elevations is this pretty simple or am I making it complicated just need direction - is the shed roof coming over the gable part way? if so - it seems the gables would not be symetrical on the sides... thanks in advance Levina elevations.pdf

great! thanks

HI I am attaching photo I am trying to recreate for my client. How do i get the different different levels. I tried to create two decks and join with stairs but didn't work- when I tried to build one deck and put another one over then move it to the desired area - it it didn't work. Its probably something sooo simple... Any suggestions are welcome .. Thanking you in advance Levina

unfortunately I have no idea how to edit videos.. so i guess I will depend on Chief for my results.. Maybe I should do two videos (ie) living room kitchen dining room// --then hall- master bedroom and ensuite Thanks for your response,.. Levina

Hi I am in the process of creating my first Walkthrough video for my client. Is there a preference for using the CAD spline and convert to walk through path or just use the create walk though ? Also when looking at some of the walk throughs in the online help videos it looks like they are using an outside software to edit the videos (splicing I think).. Is that really necessary or just for our benefit to show how the videos can look.( hopefully not necessary) Dustin Cruz has an easy to follow video so I am assuming this would be a good sample. I am not going to us fast and slow cameras but would use up and down plus want to have the PB rendering that match my still images Thanks again Any advise would be welcome. Cheers Levina

Thanks! would never have thought of that.. That's why CT is so vital,,

Hi How do install recessed / pot lights in a shed roof eave?? I've tried installed in plan view but they end up as ground path lights Thanks in advance Levina

Good point..

"Wondering if anyone uses the virtual tours for clients. I've been asked for a new home build virtual tour before foundation is laid in. Also if I could get an idea of the client fee for such a service it would be much appreciated" I can see that you have done many "tours" and they look amazing. I'm hoping I can produce the walkthrough myself My QUESTION - how much should I charge my client for an interior virtual tour ( or at least a rough estimate) I haven't been asked for one before

Bob The videos are amazing.. Are using PBR with another external software. Also are you providing the service to me or just showing me how the videos can look.. If you are offrring the service what is your fee or if not what would you suggest I charge for this extra service. Thanks Levina

I didn't realize I could import elevations.. thanks

great! thanks

Hi I imported this house plan to create a 3D rendering for my client - house plan has two individual residences - one side is a one level with a crawl space - the other is a full basement ( 5 ft below ground )as you can see by the attached PDF. with a second floor 1. do I treat this as a split level? or work up from the basement 2. When I tried to add the second floor ( to at least have that added- seeing how I wasn't getting anywhere with the foundation) it does not show in my plan view and when I use perspective full overview only main floor shows ( with the foundation ) Wondering if it has something to do with the imported PDF Any assistance is welcome Cheers Levina

HI When I use the Scree Capture to import a backdrop it is too big and looks distorted when placed in the design. Is there a format for importing backdrops that I should use (ie) particular jpg or png size Thank again in advance Levina

thanks Robert

is 300dpi also good for online advertising

Thanks I will change to 300 dpi

thank you all

HI Wondering what is the best format to export a completed rendering if using for marketing purposes (ie) mls real estate listing Thanks

Hi I know Eric said to adjust fascia heights which I have and thank you Eric, it has worked on the perimeters. BUT I just can't get it together. I will pay someone to fix the roof for me. Levina
