Hi Steve I really like your renderings and techniques you use plus the hints and tips you offer is amazing thank you so much for sharing. I've been using CA for a few years and now have upgraded to X16 several months ago. However I had a virus in my computer a few days ago and lost lots of file etc including my X16. I had to redownload x16 and for some reason the tools and template are a little different from the X16 I had a week ago Anyway my renderings are not as precise and clear as yours - this is the system I have Chief Architect Premier X 16 ALIENWARE LAPTOP NVIDIA GRAPHICS 3070 laptop GPU - DIRECT X12 AMD RYZEN 7 Chief Architect Premier x15 Chief Architect Premier X 11 Chief Architect Premier x 10 home designer pro .....and before the virus I had pretty good renderings- but not near as clear as yours. I had downloaded your 3D images etc and backdrops to my system and lots of other interesting info ( all lost) now I don't know how I did your downloads nor how I got them in to my user library if you have any suggestions - also how do you get such good great finishes. the white house above looks amazing!!! love the tree shadows and how the scenery image works for you thank you again its really good to see only CA renderings as opposed to adding another software.. If I seem like I'm all over the place I probably am!!! Many thanks Levina

ill have to check my default and see if I have done something in error
-
that's just it I don't know why. did you use auto dormer and adjust
-
just what I'm trying to do but in a gable roof ,, I just cant seem to get it in x16.. is it open to the room below for light or just for decor purposes
-
I've created this dormer in x 15 .. see glass house view - but doesn't look right in the inside. I'm thinking if I clean this up!! I can copy paste to X16.

I've added the image so you can see plan and overhead. also attached is a picture of a dormer the client wants to have but the pitch looks higher than 5 He wanted a dormer to allow extra light into the room because there will be a covered deck . I had originally installed gables over the windows but the truss guys said it would be too costly to do it that way. ( this is a reno not a new build) if i can have a dormer open to the room great if its to be only decorative as a result of the pitch I will inform the client. all your advise has been great and I've done what you've suggested - but to no avail at the moment again I welcome your expertise

I've been at this for hours and have followed your instructions - still don't see any walls only the hole in the roof - have tired so many times and its just not working . is it because the roof p itch is only 5. my ears are hurting from having my headphone on replaying the videos. ( which looks so easy ) if the pitch was different I could use auto dormers.. ..... I must be doing something wrong and I'll bet **** so simple I will probably tear my hair out!!!
-
I'm trying to create a manual dormer - my roof pitch is 5:12 . the house is one level 8 ft ceilings - I'm roof plan view - draw the walls - create the hole but the walls show on the man floor not showing on the roof.. only the hole Any suggestions Levina

haha australia I will check it out further thanks

funny thing happening when I record walk through the cameras seem to be moving backwards even though they were forward when i created it. any suggestions
-
Thank you for all the information you have provided. I have printed all your details and downloaded your library images,etc. Still trying to gauge sizing of images as opposed to backdrops. Most of my renders are exterior and I really didn't want to go to an outside software when I know I can learn from your info. I was doing ok til I upgraded to X16 then all my settings had to change so it is a learning curve. thanks again!

Hi I'm wondering how to reset dimension defaults. I have attached the floor plan showing dimensions. But I'm trying to get window centers and sides to show for location but it only shows when I put my cursor on the window ( and even then does not show the distance from the Window casing to the room ) vanishes when I remove it. I checked my display preferences and dimensions are all showing as active I've gone into the DIMENSIONS default settings to make changes but none of my changes appear when I activate exterior dimensions icon in the tool bar --still does not show- I've been at this going back and forth to default settings but nothing is happening. Any suggestions are welcome What I'm trying to do for the contractor is show the window locations properly

thank you! worked..
-
ok .. i"m trying to change the fill.. just wish I knew what i did ha ha
-
not sure what's going on here but I must have done something while trying to change the fill color for the exterior walls...( didn't work) Now each time my cursor hovers over a room it turns black and I can't work in it. Any suggestions??
-
Am using CAx16.. PBR -no refraction ? I'm finding that my go to values for lighting etc don't work now. Guessing its a brand new ball games. most of my projects are exterior house finishes so its going to be another set of values im guessing Any one else doing exteriors? Cheers Levina
