Remember that line weights can also be defined in the wall definition dbx: either "bylayer", or something custom. I'd check the wall definition.

Nothing should prevent you from adding additional floors. PDFs don't help us diagnose a problem - attach the plan file.

You can set the default window style that is inserted when you use the Window tool: -
Here's a server rack. Do you need one populated with stuff, or bare? server rack.calibz

All of your customization options are in the camera dbx: You can't change the callout shape - only a circle is allowed.

As Solver beat me to it, it appears that a terrain feature isn't necessary, you can apply the material to the terrain and it works just as well:
-
I believe the key may be to turn off Stretch to Fit in the Material Definition. Here is a terrain with hills and a valley, and a rectangular terrain feature with an applied material that uses an aerial view as the texture. The texture is sized to the same dimensions of the terrain feature: As soon as you check Stretch to Fit, the wonkiness occurs:

Yes, but only if Substance Designer is also installed; otherwise, no.

It depends on the situation. They work well for deck posts that are reasonably spaced apart and away from the foundation or other structure - they don't work well in tight quarters due to the large installation diameter of the drive pins. And not all contractors around here are familiar with the product, or willing to purchase an electric drive hammer for the job. Sometimes a poured pier is still the answer. But in the right circumstances, yes, we specify them.

I'm using TwinMotion when I need to produce higher-end renderings. This is a screen porch addition modeled in Chief with lights and vegetation from TwinMotion. It's not photorealistic, but it's significantly faster and better than a Chief raytrace. These particular examples use TwinMotion's Light Line filter (there are several available "artistic" filters):

I created this for a recent project: nickel gap.calibz. It's not great but served in a pinch.

Separate dwelling units always need some level of fire-resistive construction to demise the two occupancies. In Wisconsin we can achieve horizontal separation for a two-family occupancy with: 1. One layer of 5/8" Type-X on the ceiling. 2. One layer of 5/8" Type-X to protect any supporting floor beams and columns. 3. Appropriate draftstopping and firestopping at vertical penetrations. 4. 90-minute dampers at HVAC ductwork penetrations (this is a PITA in a retrofit). A common issue for this type of conversion is when a single HVAC system supplies both units; tenants share the same air, and the same odors, even if the units are on separate heating/cooling zones.

Okay. I suggest a graphical scale.
-
Why can't you produce a single 22x34 PDF, then let the client send it to their printer at 1/2 size? Most printers allow scaling to fit the selected paper size.
-
In my experience, the single most important variable is the quality of the seed image - poor quality seeds lead to poor quality results. Obvious, really. Also, I never accept the default Detail and Surface Scale values when creating the maps - adjusting the sliders can give much better results.

I suggest downloading and consulting the X9 Reference Manual.

You must be in a 3D View for the Delete Surface tool to become available.
-
Yes, or as a Collada file, etc. It would be nice if we could "save as" to older library formats.
-
I apologize for ignoring the fact that you are on X9. Unfortunately, I can't save it as an X9 library item. However, by following Michael's instructions and using the Delete Surface too, you can quickly perform the operation yourself.
