I worked on my build the other day and i'm almost done. Unlike some of you I cant seam to get the roof to work right. I was trying to do an attic and I had the roof how I wanted but then I could not see into the room only if I had all walls down could I then see in. Any one know how to do an attic that you can see in with walls up?
I'm also stuck on coming up with a name for my firm. I don't want to spend all this time thinking on a name and then have it duplicated by someone ells. Well back to brainstorming I go.
That's a good question! I actually haven't built a house with (intentional, usable) attic space yet, so I'm not sure how it would work. It might be tied to the glitch I had, though - I was making a really tall, curved half-gabled roof for one section of my house (laugh all you want, but the thing OWNED - I love weird roof lines), and it was working perfectly - and would have afforded me a sizable attic if I'd wanted it. I'm not sure what I moved in the room below it, because I was adding on a room and accidentally overlapped the wall for a second, and POOF - roof was gone. Worse yet, I couldn't just rebuild it, because it kept showing the base of the roof there, even after I removed the entire FLOOR under the roof to build it again. I was finally able to click on the roof base, as though it were a roof, delete it, and rebuild the floor the exact way I'd had it, but no matter what I did, I could never get the half-gable (or any other roof for that matter) to stay on that section of the house. I gave up and made it a rooftop patio and went on my merry way with the rest of the roof pieces of the house. XD
