Roof lines & loft
I am trying to create the Log home we will be building in the program, so I can move around furniture and fixtures. I am having difficulty adding the 2nd floor and the roof. The home has a center section that is vaulted, Roof pitch 9/12. The second floor consists only of a loft in the back, open to below in the front in the center section. The 2 side sections are 8 feet shorter in the front of the house and the roof pitch is 6/12, no second floor The gables face the sides on the sides and the front on the front. I keep getting a very complicated roof line. The first floor walls are 9' high. I am very knew to the program.

I swear Rick that you have got to have a "drawer" full of these quick answers. Shoot, there is any time between the posting and the answer. What did you do, use one day to design every feasible type of problem and then saved them for inserts?

That is why I think he has a drawer of ready made answers. You can't beat him; he don't play fair with the other kids. LOL Rick, you gotta love us.

Pretty useful for Rick, although I think in the story the kid got locked in there or something and by the time he was discovered, he was long dead.Dave H.

He knows the bit about time shifting is true.
There was a whole lot of posts proving this theory but they disappeared before they were posted and I think time shifting had something to do with it.

I have no clue how to get the vaulted ceiling and the loft over the center section of the first floor without the full second floor walls. It is only 2 stories high in the center, the roof meets the first floor (which is a 9ft ceiling) at the 1 story side wings of the log home. It should appear almost as an A frame or chalet in the front of the house. I am very knew at this, hope I am making myself clear....
