Jim and All, We updated new files to our server recently to support some new materials, and accidentally posted the wrong file. The correct file should be on the server now. Ryzen, it is possible that it takes some time for the file to populate to the server you are accessing. You may want to try again in a few minutes to run the Update from the Library Menu, and then make sure you re-launch Chief Architect (the files won't refresh until you restart the program). If this continues to fail for you, we can work through the Support Department to find a good solution. Best,

Okay All, I believe we have resolved the issue. Apologies for the confusion and inconvenience. To get to latest files for the updated materials, please run the "Update Library Catalogs" command from the "Library" menu inside Chief. You should see some files download. Once the download completes, relaunch Chief Architect. The textures for the updated materials should now show properly. The materials affected where primarily those that got an update in X10 which includes the categories of "Siding", "Wood Flooring", and "Wood". Thanks for sticking with us while we worked through this. Best,

Thanks Jim! Yes, we are on it... hoping to have a fix available for you in a few. Thanks for your patience while we iron out this wrinkle.

Thanks for the feedback! We are looking into this and hope to have a resolution shortly.

Ah... Apparently it doesn't work! Thanks regardless.

Apparently it works! Thanks for the heads-up.

Good feedback and observations! As Mark pointed out, we use the objects provided by the brand. This set contains objects with a single material layer. We are working with brands like these to improve the source data that is provided, but feel it is valuable to offer users the objects so they are available for specification in cabinets and can be represented in materials take-offs and planning phases of the design process. We intend to make improvements and updates as they become available. Thanks Mark for the usability feedback concerning re-sizing!

There are 3 Generators in the Home Essentials No.1 Catalog... maybe one of them is similar to what you have in mind? https://3dlibrary.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?r=site/detail/902

Hmmm... I'm not entirely sure! Maybe a more knowledgeable designer can chime in, but I would probably call it a "Lake Cottage" or "Coastal House". A google search on these phrases seems to bring up similar forms.

Hi Coralie! This is a beautiful house, isn't it? The design was shared with us by one of our talented users. I believe Allen Brown, of UBuildIt Indy made this design.

Hi crosscutter55!

We are happy to announce more new catalogs available for download from the 3D Library! Download the recent additions like Azek, Wayfair Trade, and Wilsonart. It has been a while since we posted an announcement, so be sure to run updates on your installed catalog (see my signature for instructions), and browse the 3D Library to explore our recent additions. Did you know you can filter the 3D Library results by posting date? 1) Click the "Toggle category/tile view" to see an uncategorized list of all catalogs 2) Choose "Date Added" from the 'Sort By' drop-down list.

One of our friends on the Users of Chief Architect Facebook Group asked for an elf. Years ago we put together this goofy scene at Christmas time... I hope this elf is useful for your project, Amanda! Elf on the Shelf.calibz

Crap, updated libraries and this is what I now see
Chief_Content replied to dshall's topic in General Q & A
Robert, feel free to contact support for steps to resolve this issue as well. In short, you will want to delete the DalTile catalog from the 'Bonus' area of your catalog, then re-install it. The latest catalog should updated properly to the 'Manufacturer' area. Sorry for the inconvenience. -
