@Charlottekn I didn't know how to use CFE either until this gift wouldn't cooperate without it. My one previous attempt at using it led to me scrapping a couple hours' worth of work on an existing build, and that was enough to put me off it for a while, but this build wasn't going to work the way I saw it in my head otherwise. If you want, I can dig up the tutorials I used. But the most helpful thing was simply building a box and seeing what I could and couldn't do.
There are still some complications as far as weather and lighting are concerned, and you'll see how I tried to get around that with the walls one square outside the dormers. If you want me to describe what I did, just ask. It's definitely not perfect, but it's a lot better than without CFE at all.
I looked at tutorials online and I could get a garage attached, I couldn't get cars to go in. I definitely still have trouble with CFE for interiors. I think I'll try using a box as well, instead of trying it on some more complex blueprint. I love seeing how people accomplish this stuff, even if I can't quite get it myself. Yet.
@GraceyManor There's a lot of kinds of Victorians. The bright, towered ones are probably Queen Anne style and I'm not a big fan of those either.
