Missing Gutters when exporting model to .dae, .3ds, etc.

[Bluneinc]

In Chief Architect, I have a ornate gutter profile. 

 

However, whenever I export to .dae, .3ds, or any other file type, the gutter disappears. There is only a line at the top in some camera views.

 

I have no idea why this is happening but curious to know if anyone else has been experiencing this and how to fix it.

If you are exporting to twinmotion, you need to toggle on "two sided" for the gutter material.

Or in Chief you can create a 3d gutter and then export.

And for this to work the model has to be 3DS.

I can export to a dae file with no issues.

Yes, you can export with DAE and it’s even quicker than 3DS and can even handle bigger models than 3DS, but you won’t be able to control an individual object like a gutter with DAE.

I don't usually export to 3ds file format. Just curious what further control of objects 3ds format offers?

 

I will oftentimes assign an object a unique material name if I need further control over an object's material.
