I didn't pay extra for screen resolution. I have no issue with the screen display. Not sure if it is 4k These are the specs. Susan

Hi Monika, I purchased the Razor Intel i9 with 3080 processor I am happy with it, it can support Chief X13 but it does get hot. I bought a cooling tray that it sits on top of to help. Susan

I typically recreate an entire model in Chief from PDFs. But often the Architect has Revit or Sketchup models. Seems like a waste of time for me to recreate a model. I would love to import their model and then work on the Interiors instead of recreating from scratch. I also have a Landscape Architect that would love to do a flyover of his exterior and then bring my interiors in for a full home flythrough. Would love to be able to merge the two without doubling the work.

Thank you! Do you also import other 3D files?

I often collaborate with Architects and Landscape Architects and we all seem to use different programs. Some Sketchup, Revit or 3DS. Is it possible to import their models and collaborate. Can I export my model so they can add landscaping etc? I see several Export 3D models but can't find any training videos on how to share models with other professionals. Anyone have experience collaborating with different 3D modeling software?

I am really struggling with the coloring of the Physical Based Renderings. They cast a pink or blue/green color to everything. I have adjusted backgrounds and sun saturation to no avail. Anyone have any tips? I have attached some examples.

Yes thank you, I canceled and purchased Razor Intel i9 3080 processor...$4000:/...

Thank you all for your input! I am going to return this laptop!3080 Have not experienced any of this with my desktop which is GeForce

How do I do that?

It is the newest supposodely Nvidia Ge Force RTX 2070 MaxQ

Does anyone else have the Razor Blade 17 and experience it crashing while using Chief X13? I purchased because it was the fasted and newest gaming computer. Attached are the details on the Laptop. It was $3000 and crashes!

Could you explain how you "insert" the apron sink? Do you add it in the cabinet detail screen? I tried this and it does set correctly. Appreciate your help. Susan Chief X13

Thank you so much! Not sure how that happened!

For some reason all my toolbars do not show the drop down menu anymore? How do I restore?

Wow, thank you so much!

Thank you! This is really helpful! I will ask the Architect to resend.

Nope that didn't work either. This is what I see

Maybe its the black screen? I have a white screen. I will try that!

I have Chief X13

I recieved a Revit DWG file and only see some of the layers. All the walls are missing. I haven't had this happen before. Do I need to do something special with these files? I have attached the DWG file I received. 843903671_206Monarch-3DModel(3).dwg

I have an assistant and we try to work on the same file. We are really struggling with missing information. She will backup the plan and share with me. All her images are saved in the same folder but there are still missing files. Is there a way for two people to work on the same file on different computers without this frustration?

I am an Interior Designer based out of Newport Beach. I am looking for an assistant part time that is proficient in Chief Architect. Experience in construction or cabinetry work is helpful but not necessary. Flexible work arrangement, have office but can work from home. Susan Thiel Design www.susanthieldesign.com
