  1. Hi Tony , 1st off you are actually on the Chief Architect Forum here ( green theme) you want to be on the Hometalk Forum ( Blue theme) for the Home Designer Products. You can use the same Username and Password Over there too . Hometalk is here : https://hometalk.chiefarchitect.com/?_fromLogin=1 That being said, it is possible that the issue is the Latest Video (Nvidia?) Driver there are a few Issues for some particularly on Laptops. The fix for most has been to install Nvidia Driver version 382.05 and block Microsoft from updating the Drivers Automatically. I have a detailed post and links on how to do that here : https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/16205-nvidia-driver-388xx-series-drivers-and-a-fix/ Also, it's good to have your Forum Signature filled in please, especially with the Software Version, and of course a Name is nice too ..............see mine below in Blue for how to do that. If you don't see my Signature then you have them turned off for the Forum or are perhaps on the CA Mobile WebSite.
  2. X10 has a new lighting scheme Joey which always Uses Shadows , which are now call Ray Casted Sun Shadows (RCSS) which is based on Ray Tracing , so you will see increased CPU use if not disabled , there is also a new View type Called PBR ( Physical Based Rendering ) which is much faster than RTing. The increase CPU usage was the 1st thing I noticed after installing x10 too... You have some catching up to do here on the Forums and you need to update your Sig. to X10 M,
  3. Yep, Contact Tech Support tomorrow , you may need a full reinstall , not just a Repair though.
  4. Joe will be on x10 now but I think I did my Updated Library in X9 ( link above ) a bit more Work than Joe's though....
  5. Thanks Joe , it works nicely....
  6. Not all Dave's Stuff is Free as he runs Chief Tutor as well , he has a membership program with monthly updates I think it is https://www.chieftutor.net/store/c1/Featured_Products.html

  8. @Chiefer Jintu does nice work , has done for many years .... http://www.jintudesigns.com/bathroom-kitchen-renderings.html for others try the Services Offered Forum , there a number of People Doing it.... M.
  9. Chief Has a Nana Wall Library and I posted an Updated Version of David Michael's one with a few Extra Panels in the Symbols Library a few Months back , both are installed into a Doorway. https://www.chieftutor.net/nanadoor.html M. *** @builtright3 added Link to DMDz Updated Library I did.... and video tutorial above https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/15651-bi-fold-door-issue/?do=findComment&comment=132820
  10. Did the X10 Installer not offer to Migrate your X9 Libraries, textures etc ? M.
  11. Great , earthquake here damaging my walls and your Potlights are growing Teeth It is a positional thing , might be the Potlights causing it in Mine too?. I think mine are from the new Chief Library though , as I had issues with some out of my User Library during the Bathroom Reno ,especially on the Sloped Ceilings , while the X10 Library one worked as expected. M.
  12. Nice Work Rene.... I guess that is Thea or Lumion though ? M.

  14. Hi , Do you have the Curved Sash Option in Interiors? Open the Windo's DBX and look on the Sash Tab for the Radio Button for Curved. Also, it's good to have your Forum Signature filled in please, especially with the Software Version, and of course a Name is nice too ..............see mine below in Blue for how to do that. If you don't see my Signature then you have them turned off for the Forum or are perhaps on the CA Mobile WebSite.
  15. Looks like there was an Earthquake in my Area last night anyone else seeing this kind of thing in PBR
  16. I think what Kirk was saying is they have Updated the two different Rendering Engines, but as yet there are very few Materials which leverage the new Rendering Engines and we will just have to wait, till they are updated too ....hopefully not to X11....
  17. Did you try labelling B as an Attic? or is it a real room? not that simple , you've got some interesting walls and a large hole in the Floor ... I'll have a better look later if needed... M.
  18. Like Eric , I was Originally a bit Confused by what image you were referring too or if you were being "general" as in commenting on Spanish Style Homes with a link that.... it did not open as one Image, for me at least, but as a Large Google Image Gallery , I don't think anyone will be offending by you "liking" their Work and posting an Image here, but you could also link direct to the Site the Image is from too, instead of to a Google Search Gallery. I think Eric might be right about the Angle ( Tapered?) Sides on the Hole , but Glenn's Hole looks pretty good to me, I haven't tried cutting thru a wall with the New Tool yet though.... M.
  19. Not from a Viewer is my guess , so Try DraftSight... Mick.
  20. Thanks David , that does look smoother than my Clopay one...... I turned it into a new material and included it with my T&G Library below made from the Clopay Material but resized etc. If you want to make your own from the Clopay T&G and want White finish, start with the Fir T&G as it Paints white the Best.

  21. More like catching up of late lots of Issues for many with the 380 Series if you read the Notes there is a Fix for GTX 980-1080 Cards and OpenGL which should help with Chief. and a fix for GTX 965 Cards to return their Speed.
  22. Try you signature with no logo image perhaps ? maybe it doesn't meet the criteria? eg size etc Looks Like Square Joint Tongue and Groove to me ? similar to T&G V joint mounted/installed backwards... *Try Clopay's T&G with the White Colour Option from the Color Option Folder Applied and see if it is close enough.... (Garage Door Manuf. Catalogue) , I use it for Soffits and t&G Ceilings if a "Country" Look is needed. If applying to a Ceiling remove the 0" Paint Layer as this is a smooth White Finish that won't follow the "Grooves" If you have the CAD Detail you could probably make a molding and Model it M.
  23. Nvidia had updated their Drivers again.......... ===================================================================================== UPDATE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nvidia has now released v391.01 Drivers Desktop http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/131443/en-us Notebook / Laptop http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/131447/en-us ***as far as I know ...***not being a MAC person*** Mac Drivers come as part of the OS , but their are a few Websites out there which tell you how to do it manually. https://bluebellflora.com/manually-update-nvidia-geforce-graphics-drivers-in-os-x/
  24. Would be best to post an image of what you need I think ..... Also your Signature is all messed Up......
