confused I am helping a friend who has a preserved lighthouse. I am trying to draw a certain area which needs some repair. How ever the wall are slanted which make the floor lager than the ceiling.

Re: Slanted walls /

It's not possible to make slanted walls in SH3D. You could use another 3D program (like Art of Illusion, Blender or Sketchup) and import the model into SH3D.
As to workarounds... I can't think of any that would be doable in SH3D. Round, yes. Slanted yes. But both slanted and round... no.

Re: Slanted walls /

Hi Hans,
I drew a wall and gave it a different height start - end. length = 3.50 mtrs, height at start = .35 metres, height at end = 1.20 metres
I selected the wall, I then exported this wall as obj out of sh3d using the toolbar button = 3dview - export to obj
I then imported it back into my project as furniture, and rotated it to give the impression of a slanted wall (the base being the 1.50 metres, and the top the .35 metrs ). I played around with the width and depth of the model to get a desired effect.

I hope this will help


I will try to upload a pic (will need some help with this?)

Standard lighthouse (for me!!) is a round, tapering building. That's what I was referring to.
You can use Mediafire to link to a picture.
