How to create an inclining wall
Hi, looking for a way how to create an inclining wall, i.e. a regular vertical wall with a length of 10m at the base ans 11m at the top end.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks so much.

Re: How to create an inclining wall
Try Modify walls -> Sloping wall to make a wall that's 10 m high at one end, and 11 m high at the other end.

If the base of your wall should be 10 m long, and the top should be 11 m long, there's no standard solution. Use this workaround:
- draw a wall 11 m long
- split it in two parts
- use Modify walls -> Sloping wall to make one side sloping
- repeat if both sides need to be sloping
- now you have an upside-down version of the wall you need
- export your wall as OBJ (selection only)
- import your wall and rotate it 90 degress during import

Hi, Hansmex,
thanks for your quick reply. Worked out well, yet seems like a work-around-around-around: not unknown in SH3D.
But Thanx anyway.

Hi, Hansmex, it's me again.
Export/import worked well, but after Import OBJ the wall is Furniture. How to turn it into a wall?
Thanks again.
K.P.

Re: How to create an inclining wall
As you noticed yourself, it’s a workaround. You could also try that one.
