They used to send emails starting a month before expiry , but I am not sure what the current practice will be , though I do know you can call in and make arrangements to have your CC on File for Auto-yearly renewal. Bit tougher from Oz perhaps? Couple of years ago when I did mine they also allowed a 5% discount if you paid for multiple years at a time, but again I am not sure if that is an Option under the new Scheme? M.

You can also download the Full PDF from the Help Menu , and use the PDF Reader/Editor to search as well M.

It wasn't a 3080 Issue , it was a general Nvidia Driver Issue but Chief has confirmed it has been resolved with Driver 528.24 https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/16205-nvidia-driver-updates/?do=findComment&comment=287470 M.

Bingo , it's on by default.........

Hi this is one is close, I think it was a Chief Door but can't remember 100% and it resizes ok...... * There is actually a "Cellar Door" in the Exterior Attachments Bonus Library, under Bulkheads which I think the one below was made from, the Color is in the Library below too ( Bilco Brown ) M. MHD_Bilco Door_SL.calibz

That's how I've been doing it since X9 , let me know if the Library needs Updating.....

Yes seems a bit weird this article is out there....... in years gone by we got the Public Beta the Day before KBIS started IIRC ? Mick.

you may need to go Old School............... ie 3D Solids , the Tray Ceiling Tool doesn't like Invisible Walls as one example and perhaps you've found another "hiccup?" Ceiling_Creating-a-Tray-or-coffered-ceiling-using-polyline-solids.pdf Mick.

I think that works pretty well Steve ......should look good on the Website.... M.

Apologies Marckus my comment was not aimed at you, I was just being Lazy and used your post to add another Tip for the OP, as nobody had mentioned Rope Lights in the thread at that point. I did read a Tip here last week for R.Lights and that was to go the opposite way and try spacing them about 8" apart with low lumens. I do agree with what you are saying above......... Mick. .

Is Chief's Rope Light Tool to simulate LED Tape Lighting , assuming you don't want the "look" of Pucks of course. M.

Oh my comment was not aimed at the house , AT ALL , if that's how it came across....... Just thought the image needed some "life"....... M.

Library List Updated to Jan. 29th 2023. 461 Libraries now. PDF in the 1st Post. Mick.

Just a FYI , I redid my List and it seems we now have 461 Libraries. Here is the PDF........................Chief Libraries Jan. 29th-2023.pdf Mick.

Not sure what the adjustments in PS were , but the color and saturation is better in the original, you could try turning the Highlights down a bit and lightening the Shadows a bit , while keeping the color. The PS Image just looks a bit "flat" to me and seems to loss some of the "realism" M.

Nah be selfish the perfect PC to "drop back to" while your new i9 13900KS with 64GB DDR5 Ram and a 4090 is rendering I think that Video will definitely help , 1 comment , and it maybe deliberate? is it that it moves a little quickly at least for those of us who aren't Millennials who i assume are not the target demographic here. M.

That will do it ..... When you said I Do I thought you meant you offer Render Farm Services as well now , not that you Know someone who does.... M

In the Sort Term no but yes Chief has a Policy to only support the previous 8 Versions, so currently Libraries as far back as x7 are available, however as far as I know only the current Versions Files are ever updated/fixed. If you have the X12 version of a Library you can install it and Run the Catalog up Date ( good habit to do once a week or so anyway ) and it will be updated to the current X14 version for example , so saved downloads can work to advantage that way too ie save a redownload , one trick is if a Library is updated auto. but is now missing something you like or used a loot is to re-name the older version /calibz file and re-install it the normal way. The renaming seems to stop the "Updater" from recognizing older Libraries and leaves them alone. * I found this out by accident as some of Chief's naming schemes aren't all that intuitive, and added info to file name I was saving. M.

You Can save them for Future Use on an External Drive too if worried about space Chief now has over 430 Downloads available.....1 by 1 If Chief is Open and aNew Plan is Open , you can Click Open File once downloaded in Edge and they will install into X14 ( as long as .calibz Files are associated with X14. see Preferences if it doesn't work , there is a big button to click.) I haven't update this since Sept but the PDF will give to a List to start with.......

Your WEB link triggers my Trojan Blocker Rene............. M.

I haven't heard of anyone doing it for Chief, but if paying Hourly , maybe it's time to just buy a 2nd computer with a 4090, and YOU charging the Hours to your Clients ( and Forum Members as a Service? ) to eventually pay for it. * didn't I hear you say just a week or two ago "I only dabble in Rendering" - yeah right , some nice work in your other Thread(s) by the way.... M.

Well I'm sure most of us will all still be here , will be interest to hear ( for me anyway) how it all goes. M.

If you need individual Room Schedules you can do it like Bill suggests above or you can Add the Room Column to your Schedule as I do, I make it the 1st Column, I then roughly drag the Cabinets into "Room Groups" , Renumber the Schedule, and as I work through the Elevations, start the numbering Left to Right in each View, going clockwise around the Room usually. Mick.

perhaps consider doing Panels/Partitions out of Base Cabinets instead , one advantage is Base Cabinets accept Style Palettes, Shelves and Partitions don't. M.

I am sure there will be a few people interested in your efforts/plans going forward , but I'd suggest not spending too much until you know it will work. The article you link to is (was/started as) more about helping Users get their Laptops to NOT use the iGPU and forcing Chief to use the Nvidia/AMD Card in the Laptop , and now in Win10/11 setting up GPU Scheduling , so I'd suggest calling Support and asking a few questions for sure.
