Exactly the same no, as Rich said CPU RT has been around in Chief for 10-15yrs and is now deprecated and no longer worked on...... the Big difference is Speed by a magnitude of Order and should be very quick on a 5070 I imagine with sample set at say 250 but with either you will need to learn the basics of PBR as it isn't a single click and boom you have "photo" realistic Camera Views. M.

Worth a try to reset your toolbars as a test, as Rene mentioned, easiest way is to rename the toolbar folder in the X16 Data folder to OLDToolbars (Or whatever) while Chief is closed, then reopen Chief and Chief will copy the backups (in stored in ProgramFiles) to your Data Folder replacing the whole Toolbar folder with a fresh X16 copy. just reverse this to get YOUR Toolbars back if desired. Mick.

Are your toolbars unlock when you 1st start ? I have not seen the red circle no/stop icon doing this myself..... DB maybe right about a Tech Support Case through your digital locker. M.

Try dropping the new place Library icon just after the line of Dots at the beginning of a Custom Toolbar, the 1st Place Library Icon will start a new toolbar that you should be able to continue adding too.... * you can NOT add Icons to Chief's Std. OOB Toolbars , they are hardcoded and non-editable. You can also use the Toolbar Tab to select and delete rouge/unwanted toolbars and even name them as appropriate so you know they are ones you made .... Note my MHD Toolbars in 2nd image. Mick

There are many reports online about issues with the 572.xx series of drivers , including here in the Forum, 566.36 is recommended here is this article below , personally I have gone back to 546.92 for more stability but I had it saved locally , I think Nvidia will only have back to 560.xx. so be careful if you download from other places. https://wccftech.com/game-developers-are-discouraging-users-from-installing-nvidia-driver-572-xx-rtx-40/ Latest Driver Release is NOT recommended as at 31.3.25...see above ..... try 566.36 instead Desktop 566.36 Studio Driver https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/237785/ Laptop/Notebook 566.36 Studio Driver https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/237786/ Mick.

Personally I use a Solid in the same Material as the top of the Curb as that is likely what the Tiler will also use....

You may have a corrupt symbol or something ? if it only happening in 1 Plan file M.

In Preferences > Render tab > Video Card Status you will see what Driver Version Tech Support had you install Levina perhaps you can post a screen snip for others with this Issue... like this one..... ( the Nvidia Driver version is the last 5 digits in the Chief Driver Version No.# : 566.36 in my case currently)

You need to make at least 2 materials, perhaps 3 for 3 planes, just make copies of original material named _1 _2 _3 etc etc so you can offset each plane individually ... similar trick is needed for tile in a shower sometimes for the 3 different walls... (using materials regions) M.

Don't have the 3070 but 566.36 is fine on my 4070 and 4080 https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/237785/ @Chopsaw has a 3070 so perhaps he can help ? M.

You can also "mis-align" the solids by as little as 1/32 - 1/16 and it should show a line or make the columns 1/16 narrower than the beam (1/32 "off" each side when centered) M.

It seems some have issues with the latest Nvidia Drivers (572 series) https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/45416-nvidia/?do=findComment&comment=324930 and some don't .....My Laptop with a 4070 and desktop with 4080 Super are still on 566.36 which is fine. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/237785/ *Your Sig. says you have a 3070 Levina, not the 2070 but you can confirm this in Preferences > Video Card Status Tab M.

A Good place to start is always the KB ( Knowledge Base (or FAQ) ) https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00763/creating-a-circular-room.html it does not specifically mention needing 2 Walls to do this but as noted above that is the case, chief suggest Drawing 1 wall with the spec'd radius and then breaking it and then rejoining the ends for an exact match. M.

I think DB is correct, if a crash happens and the Header is Corrupt the file can not be opened even by Chief, you will need to resort to the last Archived version, either your own or an Autosave in the Archives Folder assuming you have autosave enabled in Preferences. M.

You should be able to block them together (architectural block) , you can also turn it into a symbol if it's a combo you use regularly and add it to you user Library, the A.Block can also be added to your User Library too actually with the advantage of the faucet remaining changable if needed. M.
