HaywardVT Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Pulling back a roof plane so the ridges aren't connected replaces what's missing, still not sure what's causing the issue though. E2_Colden RD with Site.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis_Gavin Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 you may want to move the house closer to 0,0 origin. I think that is why you are getting Z fighting in the camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaywardVT Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 Thanks, I always forget to check the origin. Unfortunately this didn't fix the problem. To me it seems like a similar problem to what overlapping objects cause, but with this in mind I can't find a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javatom Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Sometimes, just re-snapping the connections together can fix odd things that show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosco2017 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I've had similar problems with roof planes in the past and the only way I could get it to look right was to just re-draw the offending roof planes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan_Son Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I didn't mess with it for a long time, but the short time I did spend with it led me to believe it's a buggy roof. I wouldn't have modeled it like you did, but I don't technically think there's anything wrong with the way you did it. It shouldn't behave like that. Probably one to send in to tech support.

DMDesigns Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Dave wins the prize. Have a look at the angle. Dave, How does this happen with Angle Snaps toggled on? Whats even more amazing to think about is, Did Chief Architect build their software in such a way that when something as small as this angle is off by, it results in a building error..! ---- I was never one for code, but that's pretty darn impressive code..!

HaywardVT Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Thanks for the help guys, that fixed it. I'm pretty sure I got that weird angle from editing the roof plane in a 3D view. While on the topic of roofs, does anyone know why some walls are missing auto roof returns? I've tried rebuilding the roof planes that don't have returns; they're there once built but when the plane's moved into place the return isn't there.

CJSpud Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Select the roof planes with the missing returns and under options, make sure boxed is checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
