Re: Generate roof plugin
Many thanks for your effort.
I do not promote other programs, SH3D is the best for me, but there is "LIVE HOME 3D" which opens SH3D files. I has a sublime "autoroof" generator.
So import your file, generate the roof, export the roof as OBJ and import in SH3D. Comes as a ZIP file with the model and textures.

Be aware that there is no Linux version. To make it usable you will need the pro version which is quite expensive AND you need additional packages that all have to be paid for on top of the initial purchase. Even worse, some packages require a facebook like or even following on instagram. That's ridiculous.
For me it would be utterly useless: I'm 100% on Linux, I hate facebook and thus have no account there. The same for instagram.
No matter how good the program might be, with those prices and restrictions it's useless.

Re: Generate roof plugin
I'm agree with all of you about LH3d.
@Cornelis10 & crackwood01
If you give me the source code, I could try to implement it in SH3D.
Until there the GRT make what is able FOR FREE.
Or for the considerable number of donors.( see the list here )

Re: Generate roof plugin
Hi Dorin,

i'm not sure to understand your meaning about the source code of LH3D ...

Re: Generate roof plugin
1. By source code I mean the code behind the executable.
Something like this:

if (r == 0) { 
   if (!roofProjection.isClockwise()) {
      roofProjection = getReverseOrder(roofProjection);
      }
   } else {
	if (roofProjection.isClockwise()) {
	roofProjection = getReverseOrder(roofProjection);
  }
}

This is free to use and free to modify.
Usually a payed software will don't make it public.

2. About contributions: who really want will find a way.
To make it easy: Find the Donation button or directly here

Re: Generate roof plugin
Hi Dorin

1-I'm well aware of what a source code is, you asked for the source code of LH3D when you already knew that no one could give it to you.

2- I know how to donate to Daniels118, i want to donate to Dorin

Re: Generate roof plugin

Don't take people for idiots please

I beg you to forgive me!

@1. I know that and, in the absence, me or someone else have to reinvent it.
@2. This plugin, AS IS, belong to both of us (Daniele & me).
- I don't have (I don't want to) a PayPal account.
- I don't have also a web page.
Daniele hosts donations separately including for this plugin. See the second link.
Within the team (GRT) we have a good agreement about this.

About the amount I have as references beer, cigarettes pack or vine bottle. I'm (just me) a drunkard and a smoker.
So, 1 or 2 of what I've suggested will be appreciated.
Who think WE (GRT) deserve more are welcome.

PS. If I offended anyone again, I apologize in advance. It was not with this intention.
PS2. Maybe we can discuss more about this plugin here.

Re: Generate roof plugin
Donatation has been made.

Thanks for your contribution to SH3D.

2d elevation in black and white on wich you can take measurements would be a great add-on to the software
