  1. The end use is a VR environment. I can create the rooms in CA, then using a rendering as a guide, I can then use a secondary software to change out lights, change backdrops, etc. This is just a low sample count example of the scene before I have been able to get all the shadows and lighting sorted if we go with a night theme. I can then adjust the outer floor distance to make the room seem higher, move the dome further away for deeper perspective... The key to this is that the backdrops are videos, not static images
  2. Joe, Thats it! The half glass dome is perfect! Rener...because I can then export this whole room into another bit of software and retain all the lighting data but the inside of that dome can then be skinned with video or static images.
  3. This will sound like a really odd design choice, but it serves an odd purpose. I am looking for a way to create a dome shape, roughly 30ft diameter....but vertically, so that if you were to look out the window of a room, you'd be looking into the inside center of the dome. Think planetarium...but standing up. I know it's goofy, but I have an application that could allow for an environment to be projected onto that inside surface to mimic a fully interchangable backdrop from the view of the window. One idea I had is to create this giant dome separately in Fusion, and then import it as an object, but I figure I'll have better control of the materials if all done in CA.
  4. It's Chief x10. I had done a manual roof, which created the plane properly, but I could not get it to do the framing and the small wall section that would be created. Like a "join this roof to existing roof" kind of thing.
  5. Hi there. I am sure this is super simple, but for some reason I'm going nuts. I am adjusting our house plan so that we can get offset trusses that will extend the roof, at a uniform pitch out over the front porch. We don't want a mulipitch roof here, and it's easier and cheaper to just get an offset truss with the same pitch. The roof is set right now to 5/12, but we could go to 6/12 if necessary. I would just like the area above the porch to be a uniform pitch all the way to the ridge. For some reason I just can't figure it out! THANKS!!!
