How to build a chimney?

Post by pmralbuquerque »

Hi.

I'm trying to build a fireplace, see here.

The only thing missing are three sloped walls, in a piramyd type shape for the chimney.

How are those walls made? I can't find a way!

Thank you in advance.

If you want to create a polygon in Sweet Home 3D, you can follow these steps:
- in a new document, create a new level,
- select room creation tool and draw the polygon you want,
- keep the room selected, choose 3D view > Export to OBJ format and choose Export selection option when prompted,
- in the document where you need the polygon, choose Furniture > Import furniture, import the OBJ file created in the previous step, and in the second step of the wizard, change its orientation as you wish pressing the shift key to choose a precise angle.
- Et voilà!

Hope you can achieve it!
