Hi everyone! Have you tried Archipack's roof creation tool yet? Leave a comment below and let me know! :)

This add-on is great. A few years ago it was difficult to model these things in Blender compared to 3dmax, but now Blender is much better. I've been switching from Max to Blender since November 2020 and it's the best thing I've done in my working life :). This is also thanks to you and to many people who produce excellent videos on youtube that explain how to do things in a few minutes.

WOW!! you never seem to amaze me bro! another solid vid... thanks bro
-
This channel is very underrated! I appreciate your tutorials!
-
Could you make a quick video on how to manage multiple roofs interacting with walls?
-
Would love to see skylights (am using a window as a placeholder for now). This add on is amazing... very addictive!
-
Thanks for the info!
-
this may sound like a rookie question, but i dont have the same options available when trying to create the curve. is there an addon im missing to have those functions available??? Thank you!
-
Is there a way to replace the source object (e.g Terracota tile) for another object you´ve made?
-
Does it work with non orthogonal wall layout? Can you change individual roof side angles?
-
How can you create a shed roof using the Archipack add-on?
-
hi i can't find draft tool in tools what i do?
-
Hi.. I'm not seeing the options for create draft
-
Hi, I enjoying your tutorial video..it’s had been helping me practicing blender. But, I have a question..between archipack and pyclone, which one is better to use right now for housing interiors design? Because, I planning to get the pro version on both add on. So I need some clarification.

Amazing
-
3:22 I don't see those clickable arrow points to adjust the sizes
-
im not sure where im going wrong but its not working for me. once i created the outline of the roof, i got lost
-
How do you resize the roof cutter without turning it into a parallelogram? Every time I do it, no matter which side I start with, it always skews the rectangle.
-
Can you also cut roof holes with standard Blender booleans?
-
like it!
