I have been operating on x14. Yesterday I finally upgraded to x15 but have files I still need to operate in x14 until my coworkers upgrade. I logged in to work on them and all of my libraries including the core ones have disappeared. When I do "library" - "Install Core Content". It says they are up to date but nothing shows up in my library. When I attempt to import "user catalog" from my files I get the following message "The library "/var/folders/y7/r35qpkxx7ts27x6bkm49q5fc0000gn/T/ChiefTemp_1/User_Library.calib" has an invalid version number and cannot be read. Changes made to the library will not be saved during this session." 

Any advice on how I fix this?

Yes it does! 

Oh gosh, thank you so much! I was looking for a white button of course!

Select only one roof plane and that tool/icon will show up. Click on it before selecting the second roof plane.

 It still does not show

Yup you are on interiors then.  BTW this type of information is very key to helping diagnose issues and is why as I am assuming Eric mentions in his private message it really helps save the ones who are trying to help time...

Show us a screen capture of your Edit toolbar with a roof plane selected.

That's what I did and it is still missing!

You need to select a roof plane and it will show up in the edit toolbar (oob that is on your lower bar).

 

I can not locate the "Join Roof Plane" edit tool. I am using x13 on a Mac and am having trouble getting some of my roof planes to join. My colleague shared the "Join roof plane" button, but I can't seem to pull it up. Was it removed or not a provided tool for the Mac platform? 

Thank you so much! 

I have been trying to create more photorealistic renderings with Chief as I don't have the current budget for additional software. 

I have been playing with the CPU Ray Trace option and keep coming up with grainy images that seem darker than I'd like.

I have played with the lighting and sunlight and I've pushed the resolution higher and higher every time I try with no luck. 

If adjust the contrast of the image it makes it a little brighter, but it still is lacking. 

The first image went for 60 passes, the next one was 40 and the 3rd was 50 passes. 

I would love some insight and recommendations on fixing the grainy look as well as just creating more realistic images!

Thank you!
