open side shed rendering Hi all, I want to use SH3D to draw and design an indoor equestrian arena that has: 1. A roof with support columns at regular intervals but otherwise is open sides and one end 2. At the other end a residence under the same roofline 3. The residence is elevated above ground level by 60cm with a verandah I have drawn the residence - sans roof - but cannot figure out how to draw the rest of the arena. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for a marvelous program as well. Certainly the best one out there so far as i can determine - and for free! |

Re: open side shed rendering Pretty hard to tell without more information. Is the roof the problem? (Flat roof = flat elevated box). Or the columns? (Use boxes shaped as columns). Draw a room for the arena to add texture. You probably need to use several levels. ok |

Re: open side shed rendering Thanks very much for the replies. I was a tad terse I suppose. Hansmex : Yes that is the idea except that the horse part has no sides - only columns at regular intervals to support the roof, and the residence part starts at verandah level. okh: Thanks - re arena - yes I think the 'furniture object' trick would look after the gable roof and the columns and setting up 2 levels (ground - verandah, and verandah - residence roof; which is the same roof line as for the arena) for the residence. Again - great to have this support. I have only been using the software for a day so I have a lot to learn! Tony Scott |

Re: open side shed rendering Simple solution - verandah = room with low, thin walls. ok PS - image link local - doesn't show |

Re: open side shed rendering Thanks heaps to all. Hansmex, I cannot figure out how you gave the verandah a surface texture. Could you elaborate please? Thanks again. tony |

Re: open side shed rendering Please study the example file I gave you. The veranda is just a room, and it's easy to gives rooms textures. Read the User's Guide or use the in-built Help. Hans ---------------------------------------- Hans new website - under constuction hansdirkse.info |

Re: open side shed rendering Thanks again, your file has the verandah as a room - how did you get the room to show a 'roof' which would be the same as a 'floor' from the POV of layer 1? I may have be way over-conceptualizing this way too much of course... |
