An arch roof

Post by TM007 »

Hello.

Newbie asks that how I do an arch roof to a room? Like cave ceiling? We have some 3m width room and according to test (as a normal wall) arch extent is 118 degrees. In other words the arc is bent some 80 cm. Rgs, TM007

- Draw a wall of the length needed (3 mtr)
- Use Modify walls - Arc extent and set it to 118 degrees
- Apply texture(s) on inside and/or outside (rotate 90 degrees if needed)
- Export selection
- Import and rotate 90 degrees

Hello hansmex. Thanks about guiding. I followed maybe wrong Your instructions because I couldn't "flip" the arch to top of the room. I try harder. Anyway nice to know that it is easy to make own library elements! Nice feature.

Read the user guide on how to export part of a model, and in how to import and rotate it.
